Abstract
A method of manufacturing a composite riser section with a liner assembly comprises holding the liner assembly in a horizontal position, bowing the liner assembly upward, and winding resin impregnated fibers about the liner assembly to form a structural composite overwrap. Another method of manufacturing a composite riser with a liner assembly comprises holding the liner assembly in a horizontal position between two supports, and winding resin impregnated fibers about the liner assembly to form a structural composite overwrap. A system for manufacturing a composite riser section with a liner assembly having a longitudinal axis comprises a first support and a second support that hold the liner assembly in a horizontal position therebetween, and a plurality of rollers that rotate the liner assembly about the longitudinal axis.
