We have also worked with a number of EPC partners, such as: Jacobs Mustang KBR Foster Wheeler Fluor McDermott Technip CB&I AMEC Modec Sofec Burns & McDonald Worley Parsons Alliance

APP is a unique manufacturer of composite pipe supports that provides dependable solutions and stellar customer service by strategically planning, executing, training and inspecting projects as necessary. Our value-added services bring an additional dimension of support for end users, engineers, contractors and supply houses. APP CryoTek pipe shoe is a non-metallic pipe support solution for extreme temperature conditions. The APP CryoTek shoe has a sealing structural member that safeguards the moisture seal from being compromised, and a fibre-reinforced internal partition. APP CryoTek maintains operating temperature and eliminates condensation at pipe supports. APP ProTek wear pads are a non-metallic solution for un-insulated pipe systems. APP VibraTek hold down clamp is a great solution to dampen vibration, with a VibraTek lining to absorb the vibration and prolong the system.

As a corporate member of NACE International, Cryogenic Society of America and Society of Piping Engineers & Designers, APP is at the forefront of industry changing composite pipe supports. Cost-effective composite pipe supports

As an industry leader in composite pipe supports, we offer products that save the oil and gas industry millions of dollars in maintenance throughout the total cost of ownership. Pipe support solutions for extreme temperatures

APP CryoTek pipe shoe is an excellent non-metallic pipe support solution for extreme temperature conditions, such as in pipe systems with extreme cold pipe temperatures, and LNG terminals, carriers and ethylene plants.

Newly developed composite technology provides 8% flexibility while maintaining a compressibility factor of 27,500 PSI, and it is operational on temperature ranges of -320°F to +400°F.

Resistant to degradation from electrochemical corrosion and/or UV exposure, its intumescent coating allows a fire rating of two hours at 2,000°F without compromising structural integrity, and its monolithic design eliminates secondary adhesion problems for maximum strength.

The APP CryoTek shoe has a sealing structural member that safeguards the moisture seal from being compromised, and a fibre-reinforced internal partition that supports the weight of the pipe and contents while protecting the low-density polyurethane insulation cores.

Advantages of APP CryoTek include: Maintainance of operating temperature and elimination of condensation at pipe supports Installed cost is usually less than half the cost of pre-insulated steel cryogenic supports Weight of CryoTek shoe is significantly less than the alternatives, reducing freight and handling costs Eliminate corrosion due to metal-to-metal contact No welding or lifting machinery needed for installation Customisable to any height, length or width Elevated pipe systems

APP ProTek pipe shoe is a UV-resistant non-metallic solution for elevated pipe systems at support points, with 165,000lbs of compressive strength, with a temperature range of -320°F to 400°F and resistance to chemical attack. Designed as support for insulated piping systems and other offshore applications, as well as in plants and refineries.

Advantages of APP ProTek include: Prevents corrosion at support points Maintain operating temperature by not transferring heat Weight of ProTek shoe is less than a quarter of metallic equivalent Reducing freight and handling costs. No welding or lifting machinery needed for installation Customisable to any height, length or width required Un-insulated pipe systems for upstream, midstream and downstream applications

APP ProTek wear pads are a non-metallic solution for un-insulated pipe systems at support points, with 54,000lbs of compressive strength, 8% flexibility and a pre-roughened inner diameter profile.

Advantages of APP ProTek wear pads include: Prevention of corrosion at support points No metal to metal contact Easy installation Provision of a non-metallic load bearing surface between the pipe and pipe support Reduces cost of maintenance Hold down clamps for vibration dampening

APP VibraTek hold down clamp is a great solution to dampen vibration, with a VibraTek lining to absorb the vibration and prolong the system. With specialised Teflon mechanically bonded to the lining for a low-coefficient of friction, the APP VibraTek clamp prevents corrosion at hold down points and offers easy installation and reduced cost of maintenance.

Applications include vibrating lines such as a centrifugal pump, as well as other upstream, midstream or downstream applications. Metallic pipe support options

Although composite pipe supports have a wide range of benefits and applications, we at APP understand that sometimes the industry requires a broad aggregate of metallic pipe supports to meet their project’s needs. That is why we at APP also offer an expansive selection of metallic pipe supports and accessories.

The APP CryoTek Pipe Shoe is a cutting-edge non-metallic pipe support solution for extreme temperature conditions.

The APP ProTek Pipe Shoe is a UV-resistant non-metallic solution for elevated or insulated piping systems at the support points.

APP ProTek Wear Pads are designed to prevent metal-to-metal contact in piping systems.

The APP VibraTek Hold Down Clamp is the premier solution to problems associated with vibration in piping systems.

Through Aker Solutions, APP has supplied approximately 2,000 LNG pipe supports for pipes sized 4in through 36in. This has saved end users hundreds of thousands of dollars in installation costs.

Through Jacobs Engineering, APP supplied approximately 500 VibraTek Hold Down Clamps for reciprocating compressors.

South Texas-Tuxpan gas pipeline is an underwater natural gas pipeline planned between the Texas, US, and Veracruz, Mexico.

Otis is a deepwater discovery located in Mississippi Canyon block 79 in the Gulf of Mexico. The field lies in a water depth of approximately 3,800ft.

How costly is corrosion? The economic impact of corrosion is far greater than most people realise; according to this report published by NACE the cost of corrosion in the US alone is $276bn a year - that's more than 3% of the nation's GDP!

After months in development, we are proud to finally announce the launch of our new website: www.appinc.co.
