Chapter 39: The Strongest Oil Extractor (Please click to recommend)

  Tianjin Petroleum Machinery General Factory is a super-large state-owned enterprise, with only 20,000 employees, equivalent to the Victory Oil Field, and can be called a top-notch factory even nationwide.

  This is evident from the sculptures outside their factory. The gigantic decorations, as high as 30 meters, are comparable to heroic monuments, with neatly manicured lawns that occupy at least two football fields in size, completely hiding the plant area behind them.

  People coming and going from the factory must pass under the sculpture, and what they see are all honors of Tianjin Petroleum Machinery General Factory: National Science Congress Award, National Gold Award, National Silver Award, National Major Equipment Technology Achievement Award, American Petroleum Institute API Certification Mark...

  Liu looked at these and sighed with emotion: "Jinshi Machinery Factory is indeed extraordinary."

  "We have been striving to become the largest and strongest oil machinery factory in China." Accompanying factory director Du Lijun seemed humble, but actually proud: "Our current design capability is still relatively weak and cannot yet achieve full well depth, all-weather, and all-terrain. In addition, we have a lot of experience with land-based oil drilling rigs, while offshore oil drilling rigs are just in the initial stages of learning and need some time to accumulate."

  At present, there is only one factory in China that produces offshore oil drilling rigs, which is Tianjin Stone Machinery General Factory. This is something that everyone present knows.

  Liu Sicong chuckled and said: "Then what advantages will the oil extraction machines you plan to introduce have compared to those produced domestically?"

  "Power consumption is 40 degrees lower than our ordinary oil pump, saving 40% of electricity. Efficiency has increased by more than 30%, which means that making three sets can save one set. Moreover, the other party is transferring the complete patent technology and giving us a production line for trial production, very tempting."

  Liu didn't even glance at Su Cheng. The data from the Victory Oil Field was far superior to that of Halliburton's oil extraction machine.

  Of course, he also knew that the pros and cons of an oil pump were not just two or three key data.

  So Liu Silong continued to listen to Du Lijun's introduction with a curious mind.

  Su Cheng stuck out her tongue behind him.

  Halliburton is the world's strongest energy service provider, and their drilling standards would not be so low. From a time perspective, Halliburton should already have products comparable to Double Horsehead drilling machines.

  However, to achieve this goal with the industrial level of the late 1980s, they had to use very good motors and reducers, and the cost of the gantry crane would not be low. In addition, adding R&D investment, even if Jinshi General Factory could afford it, they couldn't make it.

  Su Cheng speculated with the best of intentions that the oil extraction equipment provided by Harberton to Jinshi General Factory was at least one generation behind, and certainly a conventional oil extraction machine. Compared to the double-horsehead oil extraction machine, its manufacturing process and cost were much higher, but its efficiency was not much different, and most importantly, its development potential was almost zero.

  Duri knew this point roughly, but the oil extraction machine provided by Halliburton was more than one generation better than that of Jinshi Factory. So, as long as the Petroleum Department could approve the foreign exchange and agree to purchase it, it would be another golden egg for them.

  The entire Jinshi Factory is very concerned about this.

  A group of people soon entered the final assembly workshop of Jinshi General Factory.

  The workers here are generally surrounded by onlookers and continue working calmly, regardless of the factory owner's comments.

  Su Cheng nodded in agreement. A large factory with a history of fifty or sixty years indeed had high-quality workers.

  Liu Si Chang also nodded slightly.

  Director Du felt relieved and smiled, saying: "The educational background of our Jinshi General Factory's workers is top-notch in the system. 35% of them have a college degree or above, and 65% hold intermediate to senior titles. The people in charge of production on the front line are all experienced and knowledgeable practitioners."

  As they spoke, an oil extractor finished its assembly.

  Du Changzhang hastily walked forward, smiling: "Director Liu, look at this. This is the 4th generation oil extractor we are currently producing. It's already at a leading domestic level. However, it still lags far behind others."

  In order to get the Petroleum Department's approval for introduction, he would rather belittle his own factory's oil extraction machines, showing a resolute attitude.

  Liu nodded slightly and said: "I heard that the Victory Oil Field has developed a new type of oil extraction machine... Xiao Zhuo, introduce it to Director Du."

  He didn't directly mention Su City, which is also a kind of concern and care. For cadres like Director Du, who knows when they will be transferred to the Petroleum Department or Oil Field one day, it's better not to offend them if possible.

  Xiao Zhuo is a technical personnel brought by Liu Si Chang from the Petroleum Department, who is very familiar with oil extraction machines and other aspects. He stepped out and said without hesitation: "The oil extraction machine that will be put into production in the Victory Oil Field soon adopts a double-donkey-head design, which fully utilizes the characteristics of the rocker arm's up-and-down movement, allowing for simultaneous exploitation of two wells at the same time. The current data shows that compared to your factory's 4-type oil extraction machine, its efficiency is increased by 50%, and the power consumption per ton is 24.6 degrees, which is 60% more energy-efficient than the 4-type oil extraction machine."

  "They're talking nonsense." Director Du cut off Director Liu's words without hesitation, and said with a huff: "Are you saying their data is even stronger than Harliburton's oil pump? How is that possible?"

  "Suzhou couldn't help but speak up at this time: 'Why is it that oil extractors made by our country must be inferior to those made by foreigners?'"

  Director Du glared over and snorted, "What era is this? Still putting hats on people? We've just ended the turmoil, 10 whole years of stagnation, of course we can't compare to foreigners."

  He was annoyed by Su Cheng's interruption. Du Lijun's level was equivalent to Liu Sichang, although due to positional differences, their powers were different, but he was also a figure with great authority in the factory. As for Su Cheng, it was different, Du Lijun only needed to look at his age to know that this young man was far from being a deputy department-level official, and yet he dared to jump out and create discord between China and foreign countries, which was unbearable.

  Liu Bing Liu Zong Chang waved his hand and said: "Listen to one side and you will be in the dark, listen to both sides and you will understand. Xiao Zhuo, continue speaking."

  "Yes." Little Zhuo nodded and said: "The structure of the Double Mule Head Oil Extractor is very simple, with an estimated cost of only 80% of your factory's. The maintenance costs are similar. Another advantage is that it has good compatibility with our current equipment, with about 40% of parts being interchangeable, and the modification costs are also low."

  "All you say is good." Director Du's face turned red with anger, saying: "I just don't believe it. The cost is lower than our own oil extractor, and the efficiency is higher than our own oil extractor. If it were really that powerful, wouldn't the Victory Oil Field have done so earlier? Their repair factory might as well not be built, and let our petroleum machinery factory go bankrupt."

  "Hey Old Du, don't be impatient." Liu Si Chang said with his mouth, but his actions encouraged Xiao Zhuo to continue speaking.

  "The latter continued: "The principle of the double donkey head oil pump is actually very simple. Traditional oil pumps are in the form of a nodding machine, which uses up and down motion to extract oil from several thousand meters deep and send it into pipes. The double donkey head oil pump uses up and down motion at the same time to complete the extraction of two wells. Once you understand its design philosophy, it's easy to understand, and as long as this design can be implemented, a significant increase in various indicators is inevitable."

  "Has the experimental oil pump been made?" asked Jinshi General Factory's technical director with concern.

  "It's done, with a 50% increase in efficiency and 60% energy saving, which are actual test data."

  "The figure is too high." The technical director was also a bit skeptical.

  "It would be better to draw a picture." Xiao Zhuo didn't have the consciousness of protecting Su Cheng, and directly pointed out: "The designer of the Double Mule Head Oil Extractor is right here, Su Ke, you come and explain it to everyone."

  Su Cheng didn't flinch under Du Chang's murderous gaze, and instead pulled over the blackboard that was originally used to list their own advantages at the Jinshi General Factory. With a few swift strokes, he drew a diagram of an oil extraction machine on it, and listed the trajectory formula for donkey movement next to it.

  Several technical experts gathered around, looked at it seriously, and their expressions became more and more solemn as they looked.
