Offshore High-Pressure Oil and Gas Hoses

Oil and gas projects rely on hoses that can withstand pressure, chemical exposure, and challenging installation conditions. We offer SPIR STAR® high-pressure hoses for offshore contractors, equipment manufacturers, system integrators, and maintenance teams. The range includes HT, PPA, and M series hoses for methanol service, chemical injection, and hydraulic control. Key features include low volumetric expansion, light weight, and resistance to external pressure. Compare our oil and gas hose series, browse offshore hose applications, or review the hose inspection documents required for your project. ## Thermoplastic hose design for offshore use SPIR STAR combines thermoplastic hose materials with high-tensile steel wire reinforcement. By selecting the inner core, reinforcement, and outer cover according to the intended use, the manufacturer offers different solutions for pressure, temperature, and chemical exposure. SPIR STAR products have been used in oil and gas projects from the North Sea to the Gulf of Mexico. Its specialized hose range addresses the need for chemical resistance and practical handling in demanding environments. Low volumetric expansion means that the hose volume changes only slightly as internal pressure increases. This is a useful factor when selecting hydraulic control lines. At the same time, low weight simplifies handling of long hose runs and planning bundle configurations. For subsea use, external pressure resistance must also be checked against the planned installation conditions. ## Compare HT, PPA, and M series hoses The three series use different material combinations. Therefore, the selection should be based on the fluid, temperature, pressure, and required operating conditions.

Series	Main material features	Main selection focus
HT series	PVDF inner core and PVDF outer cover	High-temperature chemical and methanol service
PPA series	PVDF inner core and polyamide outer cover	Chemical resistance and low permeation
M series	Methanol-washed polyamide inner core and polyamide outer cover	Flexible, lightweight hoses for methanol service

Selected HT hoses are designed for operating temperatures up to 150°C. However, temperature limits and working pressures must be confirmed for the specific hose and fittings. PVDF offers a material option for demanding chemical applications. Even so, compatibility depends on the overall fluid composition, concentration, and temperature. Permeation is another key factor: it describes the passage of fluid or gas through the hose material. Request data that matches the intended medium and operating conditions. ## Chemical injection and hydraulic control applications Our oil and gas hose range supports a variety of offshore and wellhead tasks. Each application requires its own specifications.

Application	Main purchasing requirement
Offshore hose bundles	Required length, outside diameter, weight, and routing
Platform methanol injection	Fluid compatibility, permeation, and working pressure
Wellhead chemical injection	Compatibility with the chemical mixture and service temperature
Hydraulic component control	Pressure rating, volumetric expansion, and connection details
High-pressure or high-temperature service	Verified pressure and temperature limits for the selected assembly

For hydrogen fuel projects, request a dedicated hose selection with application-specific testing and approval requirements. When multiple fluids run through a single bundle, each line should be reviewed separately. A hose selected for one chemical or temperature range may require a different construction for another application.   ## Long hose lengths for offshore bundles Selected hose types can be manufactured in continuous lengths of up to 4,500 metres, subject to product specifications and order confirmation. This capability supports long offshore hose runs and can reduce the need for intermediate connections. In addition, continuous lengths help system builders plan hose bundles according to the required route. For long-length orders, please provide the bore size, required length, outside diameter limits, and delivery format. Also, confirm reel dimensions, handling requirements, and minimum bend radius. The maximum available length depends on the hose type. Confirm these details before finalizing the bundle design. ## Inspection certificates and test documentation Clear test records help buyers evaluate the product against the purchase specifications. SPIR STAR factory-assembled hoses undergo a final pressure test before dispatch. A DIN EN 10204 Type 3.1 inspection certificate can be requested for the tested hose assembly and will be provided with delivery. Depending on the agreed scope, supporting test documentation may include: - Volumetric expansion. - Burst pressure. - Permeation. - Dimensional and specification checks. Agree on which results apply to the delivered assembly, representative samples, or product qualification. Burst tests and other destructive tests require a defined sampling plan. For procurement review, please request the current model data sheet, assembly rating, traceability details, and required inspection documents together. This creates a clear record for technical approval and repeat orders. ## Related pumps, control units, and test systems Our related supply range includes ultra-high-pressure pumps, hydrostatic and pneumatic test equipment, wellhead safety control systems, hydraulic power units, and custom pressure systems. Project requirements may also include burst test benches, gas leak test systems, high- and low-temperature test equipment, impulse or fatigue test benches, and autofrettage systems. Discuss these requirements in conjunction with the hose specifications. This ensures that the pressure source, connections, controls, and test scope are aligned with the overall system. ## How to specify an oil and gas hose A complete inquiry helps engineers assess suitability and gives procurement teams a clearer basis for comparing offers. Please include: - Application, installation location, and expected operating conditions. - Fluid composition, concentration, and compatibility requirements. - Working pressure, pressure peaks, and temperature range. - Internal diameter, flow requirement, and finished length. - End connections, fitting materials, and routing limits. - External pressure conditions for subsea installations. - Required tests, inspection documents, quantity, and delivery requirements. For replacement orders, please also provide the existing hose model and equipment reference. ## Request a quote for oil and gas hoses Send us your project details to discuss suitable HT, PPA, or M series hoses. Include the fluid, pressure, temperature, required length, and connections so that the proposed assembly can be reviewed against your requirements. For offshore bundles, please also share the layout and handling requirements. Use the oil and gas hose specification checklist to prepare a complete inquiry.
