The thermosetting pipes are eligible to be used in oil transportation where resistance to crude oil, paraffin build-up as well as ability to withstand relatively high pressures is required. Lamination design of such system could provide better strength and stability for internal and external loadings in both the circumferential and longitudinal directions. To this aim, a straightforward design and modeling of thermosetting pipe is developed via using first order shell theories. Apart from possessing an accurate operational condition, on account of its simplicity the proposed simulation seems also very suitable for further developing and prototyping purposes. Finally, it has been shown that the proposed thermosetting pipe, which partially attains some classical characteristic of both offshore and onshore pipeline by a different line of reasoning, is may serve as a reference in designing thermosetting pipe. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
