How does curing temperature affect fiberglass composite repair in offshore applications?

The fiberglass composite repair process requires higher curing temperatures and may require curing ovens or radiant heaters, which you may wish to avoid in offshore environments. Therefore, fiberglass composites cured at ambient temperatures may be the best choice for offshore.

However, not all ambient temperatures are equal. The ambient temperature of offshore structures located in the Arctic will be much lower, and fiberglass composite repairs installed in the area may require additional heating. In this case, tools such as heating blankets can be used to achieve the desired curing temperature.
