CNOOC realizes unmanned production in oil and gas fields to ensure stable supply
Release time：2024-08-22click：1
Within 48 hours before the typhoon passed through, the relevant departments of CNOOC launched typhoon emergency response. While offshore workers evacuated in advance, the relevant oil and gas fields immediately switched to "typhoon mode" and entered the land-based remote control "typhoon unmanned production system", which is intelligent Technology helps offshore oil fields withstand the practical test of non-stop production under extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and waves, and ensures a stable supply of oil and gas in a scientific and efficient manner.
Affected by the super typhoon "Dusuri", the company's four offshore oil and gas fields, Liuhua, Xijiang, Lufeng and Huizhou, experienced maximum wind strength of level 10 and wave height of 5 meters. While evacuating all operating personnel, CNOOC is trying to shorten the shutdown time of the oil field as much as possible. A total of 98 helicopters and 32 ships were used in the evacuation operation to bring all 2,267 offshore workers affected by the typhoon back to land.
According to reports, before the typhoon passes through, the offshore oil and gas field prevention mechanism is fully activated. CNOOC comprehensively studies and judges the trend of typhoons, and dynamically updates relevant information such as movement path, intensity, etc. that change significantly.
The Operations and Emergency Manager of CNOOC Shenzhen Branch introduced: "'Beware of all ten airs and ten airs' is the bottom line of our typhoon prevention work. We strictly prepared the plan 7 days ago. The number of offshore workers was controlled, so more than 2,000 people could be evacuated quickly without causing a passive situation. "
At the Liuhua Oilfield Production Control Center in Shenzhen, workers were being evacuated to land. The remote control system provides real-time monitoring and control of offshore production facilities 250 kilometers away, ensuring that China's largest deepwater oil field group can always maintain normal production during typhoons.
It is understood that due to its special geographical location, Liuhua Oilfield was shut down for 7.14 days every year due to typhoons, resulting in a loss of more than 80,000 tons of crude oil production. This year, CNOOC has carried out scientific and technological research and pioneered the automatic control mode of "floating oil storage tanker + underwater production system" to transform Liuhua Oilfield facilities and equipment so that they have unmanned production capabilities, which can reduce the loss of crude oil caused by typhoons. Loss of production and economy.
