Replies are rewarded – discussions are welcome. ------------------------------------------- Compared to land-based generator sets, offshore high-power crude oil generator sets operate under harsh conditions and require higher technical standards; the marine environment demands that such generators have capabilities such as protection against salt spray corrosion； The crude oil fuel used by the units has a complex and variable composition, with high levels of impurities such as heavy metals and waxes, which causes severe corrosion to the units ； Offshore platforms and FPSOs have limited space, requiring units with a small footprint and high degree of integration ； Special power plant operation modes require the units to have higher reliability, stability, and so on. For a long time, this field has been monopolized by foreign companies. On CNOOC’s Enping 15-1 offshore drilling platform, the first domestically produced SXD-MAN16V32/40 type 7600KW crude oil generator set, manufactured by Shaanxi Chaiyi Heavy Industry, a subsidiary of China National Shipbuilding Group’s China Power division, was successfully started up at sea and integrated into the platform’s power grid. It has now taken on the task of supplying electricity for the platform’s operational and residential needs. As of September 17, the unit has been in operation for a week straight, with all performance parameters within normal ranges and stable operation!
