Abstract
A composite armour for a flexible pipe includes a composite profile and a reinforcement tape. The composite profile includes longitudinally oriented reinforcement fibres embedded in a polymer matrix. The reinforcement tape includes a woven tape comprising fibres impregnated with a polymer material, in such a way that the weft thread of the reinforcement tape is orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the profile, and the warp thread is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profile.
