Abstract

The development of systems for subsea production of hydrocarbon resources for Russia is a new direction. The article describes the elastomeric materials used for the manufacture of seals for movable and fixed joints. It was noted that at present there are no domestic standards governing the requirements for elastomeric materials used in mining equipment. Based on the analysis of foreign experience, information is provided on rubbers that are most widely used in the design of subsea production systems. For basic rubbers, their main properties are considered. For rubber compounds that have become widespread and have proven their efficiency in practice, some characteristics are given. Based on the information presented in the review, a conclusion is made about the need to develop formulations of domestic elastomeric compositions.
