Abstract: The success of polyethylene pipe over the last 20 years has revolutionized the oil and gas industry, creating many changes. The natural gas industry has gradually progressed from allmetal systems, to mixed systems using 10 percent P.E., to all plastic systems. Popular joining techniques for plastic pipe include mechanical fittings (steel and plastic), socket fusion, and butt fusion, all of which have certain disadvantages- in some applications, even poor performance characteristics, Expanding volume requirements throughout the market place have naturally promoted ihe research of new materials and faster, more efficient joining techniques. A multitude of training programs and joining procedures had to be created for field personnel.
