【Ten Years of Rapid Development in Chemical Processing Equipment】Shenmu’s First One-Button Start Natural Gas Pipeline Compressor from 2006 to 2018

Thread Content

Witness the decade-long rapid development of chemical processing equipment; praise the prosperity and strength of modern China. Replies will be rewarded – discussions are welcome. ------------------------------------------- The Gaizhou compression station project is one of the key projects under the **natural gas infrastructure interconnection initiative in 2018. Its completion and operation are crucial for ensuring a stable supply of gas to the Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei regions. It is also the first pilot project for the use of fully intelligent, one-button-operated domestic compression stations. For the Gaizhou compressor station project, from design to all hardware and software components, products with independent intellectual property rights in China were used. In terms of programming, the project adopted a remote one-click start/stop system for the first time in China, enabling intelligent, unattended management of the compressor station. On November 30, 2018, the centrifugal compressor units designed and manufactured by SHENGU Group for the Gaizhou compression station completed 72 hours of operational testing under load, marking the successful commissioning of the first key project for natural gas interconnection in the Northeast. To ensure the smooth commissioning of the Gaizhou compressor station, the people at Shenmu Machinery worked as one; when problems arose, the leaders of various departments coordinated to address them promptly, ensuring that no issue was left unresolved overnight. With the support of collaborative efforts across the entire group, Xiao Yao and Guan Qingnan, service engineers from SHENGU Group’s Safety Inspection Company who were working on the West-East Gas Pipeline project, together with service personnel from various equipment manufacturing units and suppliers within the group, overcame numerous difficulties and worked against time. They completed all the debugging tasks required from powering up the system to getting the motors running in just 12 days; they finished the mechanical testing of the two compressors, as well as the anti-surge tests and 72-hour performance tests, in 6 days. The completion time was a full month ahead of the original schedule, once again demonstrating the high quality, professionalism, and efficiency of SHENGU Group’s products and services.
