The causes of failure of glass-reinforced epoxy material piping components on an offshore platform were investigated. The failure components were examined through destructive and nondestructive tests. It was observed that most of the failure occurred on the curved outer surface of the elbows and also propagated inside. The failure modes and analysis revealed that the combined effect of manufacturing defects and installation practices caused various types of failures.
