Successful first lifting of the hydrogenation reactor for the Zhongda Oil Project in Kyrgyzstan

Thread Content

The hydrogenation reactor for the Kyrgyzstan Zhongda Petroleum project was successfully lifted into place on April 26. The successful installation of this hydrogenation reactor as part of the upgrade project for Kyrgyzstan Zhongda Petroleum marks an acceleration in the construction of the project’s key facilities. As a crucial component of diesel hydrogenation units, the hydrogenation reactor plays an important role in the production process by deeply purifying the oil, stabilizing its properties, and reducing pollutant emissions; it directly influences the quality of the final product as well as the operational efficiency of the facility. The four core units of this project consist of a total of 10 large and medium-sized devices. In response to the technical challenges and safety requirements associated with lifting large-scale equipment for overseas projects, the project team carefully planned the timing of the arrival of such large and medium-sized equipment, and precisely optimized the construction plans. The vertical equipment to be lifted this time has a total length of 23 meters, a diameter of 2.4 meters, and a weight of 138 tons. It was lifted into place in one go using a 1,000-ton truck crane as the main lifting device and a 300-ton truck crane to assist.
