On December 6, it was learned from Offshore Engineering, a subsidiary of CNOOC, that Asia's first cylindrical "offshore oil and gas processing plant" independently designed and built by China - the "Offshore Oil 122" floating production, storage and offloading unit was located in Qingdao. The offshore oil engineering Qingdao high-tech equipment manufacturing base in the West Coast New Area has completed the main construction, marking the realization of a high level of autonomy in the design and construction technology of all types of floating production, storage and offloading units in China.
According to reports, the main body of "Haiyang Shiyou 122" is composed of two parts: the hull and the upper functional module. The maximum diameter is about 90 meters. The main deck area is equivalent to 13 standard basketball courts and the height is equivalent to It has nearly 30 floors, a total weight of about 36,000 tons, and is composed of nearly 500,000 parts. "Hai Yang Shiyou 122" has a design displacement of 100,000 tons, a maximum oil storage capacity of 60,000 tons, a design life of 30 years, and can operate continuously at sea for 15 years without returning to dock.
"Haiyang Shiyou 122" adopts a new cylindrical structure design. Compared with the traditional ship structure, it can effectively reduce oil field development and operation costs. Through the independent development of sea and land integrated intelligent central control systems, When a typhoon approaches, it can switch to "smart typhoon mode" to achieve "unmanned" production during the typhoon, providing a new model for the intelligent and digital construction of offshore oil and gas field facilities.
Since the construction started in March 2022, faced with many problems such as tight construction schedule, many technical gaps, and difficult construction management, the project team has concentrated on scientific and technological research to overcome the cylindrical shape A series of difficult problems such as floating production equipment system design and high-precision construction integration have been achieved, and the independent application of 15 key technical equipment has enabled China to independently design and manufacture different types of deepwater oil and gas equipment according to different oil fields and different sea areas.
At present, "Offshore Oil 122" has entered the integrated debugging stage. After completion next year, it will be used in China's first deepwater oil field - Liuhua 11-1 Oilfield, standing at a water depth of 324 meters. The deep-water area of the South China Sea processes about 5,600 tons of crude oil every day, becoming another important tool for developing China's deep-sea oil and gas resources.
