【Major Chemical Equipment】016 – Domestic BB3-type offshore platform pump units with ultra-high flow rate and high head
Thread Content
The past decade has been a period of rapid development in China’s chemical industry, marked by the emergence of many new processes, products, and equipment. There has also been significant progress in China’s chemical processing equipment, which has contributed to the swift advancement of the petrochemical sector. Here, we have compiled some of the achievements and breakthroughs made by Chinese equipment manufacturers in terms of larger-scale production and greater use of domestic equipment. We welcome everyone to share their insights and engage in discussions – let’s support Made in China! Give a thumbs up to chemical processing equipment! ----------------------------------------------- On July 12, 2018, the high-power domestic injection pump units (with a flow rate of Q=570 m3/h, head of H=1030 m, pump efficiency of η=81%, and motor power of P=2350 kW) for the comprehensive adjustment project in Zones 1/3/8/9 of the Penglai 19-3 oil field operated by CNOOC (China) Co., Ltd., which were manufactured by Hunan Tianyi Aoxing Pump Industry Co., Ltd., passed the tests successfully in the company’s testing center and were approved upon inspection; all performance parameters of these units met international advanced standards. Relevant leaders and experts from CNOOC Research Institute, the Engineering Construction Center of CNOOC (China) Co., Ltd. Tianjin Branch, Pengbo Operations Company, Offshore Oil Engineering Co., Ltd., and China Classification Society attended the site to provide guidance and witness the event.

With the further development of offshore oil exploration, there is an increasing demand for high-power, high-pressure water injection pump units. Such equipment is difficult to design and manufacture, requires high operational reliability, operates under harsh conditions, and has long maintenance cycles; previously, it was monopolized by foreign brands. The long-distance pipeline oil transfer pump products developed independently by Xi’an Aerospace Pump Co., a subsidiary of Aerospace Power, build on the advanced technology and successful experience of the Sixth Academy of Aerospace in the field of rocket engine turbopumps. These pumps not only offer high power output but also feature continuous reliability and corrosion resistance, thereby enabling faster and safer oil transportation. On this basis, the BB3 type high-power, high-pressure water injection pump for offshore platforms was developed, featuring advantages such as high reliability, excellent cavitation resistance, low noise, and high efficiency in energy conservation. The BB3 type high-power high-pressure water injection pump 350SDY1500-HY, developed in 2021: flow rate of 350 m3/h, head of 1500 m, motor power of 2240 KW, and shell pressure resistance of 24 MPa. This product has successfully passed inspections by the owner, design institute, classification society, third-party supervisors, and other parties, with all technical specifications meeting or exceeding the design requirements. The successful development of this high-power, high-pressure injection pump unit has broken the long-standing technical monopoly held by foreign brands; it also signifies that our company’s capabilities in the design, manufacturing, and integration of high-power, high-pressure injection pumps have reached international advanced levels.

On November 15, 2020, the first batch of five sets (a total of 20 sets) of crude oil transfer pump units for a large-scale overseas oil pipeline (with an annual transport capacity of 60 million tons), manufactured by Hunan Tianyi Aoxing Pump Industry Co., Ltd., were successfully shipped. This pump features a BB3 structure in accordance with the API610 standard, and it passed the full-speed test on the first attempt, which is a first in China. The detailed parameters of the unit are as follows: Five-stage pump (KDY900-180X5): flow rate Q=911 m3/h, head H=805 m, speed n=2980 rpm, efficiency η=83% (water efficiency); the accompanying explosion-proof motor has a power of N=2500 kw. Grade 6 pump (KDY900-180X6): Flow rate Q=911m3/h, head H=1050m, speed n=2980rpm, efficiency η=83% (water efficiency); the accompanying explosion-proof motor has a power of N=3200kw. The successful delivery of this project signifies that domestically produced BB3-type oil transfer pumps with large flow rates and high head have reached international advanced levels, breaking monopolies and gaining a presence in the global market. It also indicates that Hunan Tianyi Aoxing Pump Co., Ltd. has made significant progress in the design, manufacturing processes, and testing of API610-standard BB3-type heavy-duty pumps, setting a new benchmark for domestic petrochemical process pumps.
