Composite vessels offer deepwater structure flexibility

EDO Fiber Science, based in Salt Lake City, designs and produces composite tanks and vessels for water, waste, fuel and various gases, for a multitude of service pressure and temperature regimes. Most pressure vessel applications are extremely weight-sensitive and are ideal for composites built on the “fly-away mandrel” approach to lined tanks and composite filament winding. By combining multiple pressure vessels in modular forms, many different deepwater systems can be built for floatation or other purposes.
