When it comes to tertiary oil and gas recovery at operational gas stations and oil depots, there are two major concerns: firstly, the long construction period that disrupts business operations, and secondly, the mismatch between equipment and site conditions. To address these two pain points, Luoyang Wohong Petrochemical Equipment Co., Ltd. offers customized services for skid-mounted tertiary oil and gas recovery equipment, as well as comprehensive services for technical renovation of operational sites. The equipment is integrated into skid-mounted units in the factory, which can be put into operation upon on-site installation and connection. The technical renovation project is handled by one company from survey, design, manufacturing, to installation and commissioning, ensuring a seamless process. The owner only needs to deal with one company.
What scenarios are suitable for the skid-mounted solution
The skid-mounted tertiary oil and gas recovery equipment integrates the condensing unit, buffer, control, and metering units into a single unit for pre-assembly in the factory. Upon arrival at the site, the foundation is in place, the inlet and outlet pipelines are connected, and the equipment is powered on for commissioning. The installation workload is significantly reduced compared to on-site assembly of separate components. The skid-mounted solution is particularly advantageous for operational gas stations with limited space, oil depots with limited renovation windows, and projects that require rapid commissioning.
Typical applicable scenarios
- For the three times of new construction or replacement of old equipment for oil and gas recovery at the gas station in the camp, the downtime is required to be short;
- The renovation project for breathing exhaust gas recovery in the oil depot tank area faces challenges due to limited space and complex pipeline routing;
- There are stations that have already undergone primary and secondary recycling, and need to supplement the tertiary recycling process;
- For urban stations with requirements regarding land occupation, noise, and appearance, the skid-mounted appearance can be customized.
The complete process of technical transformation services
The difference between a technical renovation project and a new construction project lies in the fact that the former involves "designing with the current situation in mind". Therefore, site inspection and current situation assessment play a significant role in the process. Wohong's technical renovation services are carried out in the following steps, with clear deliverables at each step that the owner can inspect and accept one by one.
Service implementation steps
- On-site inspection: Measure the dimensions of the site, verify the direction and elevation differences of the pipelines in the tank area, and assess the scope of existing recycling pipelines that can be reused;
- Scheme design: Determine equipment scale and skid-mounted layout based on gas volume and composition, and issue layout drawings and construction plans;
- In-plant manufacturing: integration and factory inspection of skid-mounted units, pipeline pre-installation, and power-on pre-commissioning;
- On-site installation: Utilize off-peak business hours or nighttime windows for construction, including positioning, connecting pipes, and wiring, to minimize downtime;
- Commissioning and acceptance: Conduct actual measurements of condensation outlet concentration and recovery volume, simultaneously train station personnel, and deliver operation and maintenance documents.
Comparison between skid-mounted customization and traditional split installation
| Comparison item | Skid-mounted customization solution | Traditional split-type on-site installation |
|---|---|---|
| On-site construction period | Pre-assembly in the factory, with on-site placement and connection as the main approach | On-site assembly and debugging, with the duration greatly affected by weather and site conditions |
| quality control | Pre-commissioning is conducted comprehensively before leaving the factory, ensuring it is nearly ready for use upon arrival | Welding and piping are completed on-site, and the quality relies on the construction conditions |
| Site adaptability | Customized layout according to on-site dimensions, ensuring compact footprint | Due to the limitation of standard equipment dimensions, there is little room for layout |
| Impact on business operations | The construction window is short, suitable for operation at the station | The construction period is long, causing significant disruption to business operations |
Service guarantee after delivery
The commissioning of equipment is not the end of service. Wohong establishes operation archives for delivered projects, provides regular follow-ups and maintenance guidance, stocks vulnerable spare parts according to machine models, conducts remote diagnosis first when equipment status is abnormal, and arrives on-site for handling if necessary. For owners of multiple stations, the operation data of each station can be managed in a unified ledger, and an analysis of operation and recycling volume can be provided quarterly, ensuring that the accounts of each equipment are clear and transparent.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the requirements for the foundation of skid-mounted equipment?
Generally, hardened ground with equipment foundation is sufficient. The specific load-bearing capacity and dimensions are confirmed during the survey phase. Channel steel bases are commonly used for transitions in renovation projects, with minimal civil engineering modifications.
How long will the business be suspended during the renovation of the camp station?
Most project pipelines are prefabricated in the factory, and on-site construction is arranged during low business hours, so downtime can be compressed to a very short period. The specific schedule will be provided during the planning stage.
Can the old equipment be repurposed?
After inspection and evaluation, intact pipelines, recovery pumps, etc. can be incorporated into the new plan for reuse to avoid duplicate investment; reasons for replacement will be listed item by item for sections that do not meet the requirements.
