Major Depots of a Northeast Oilfield

Regional Oil Depot Grid Quality Control

Key outcomes

Solution details

📋 Customer Background

A Northeast Oilfield operates a vast finished fuel storage and transport network, with multiple depots of different scales and construction eras under its jurisdiction. These depots jointly undertake the diesel supply task for the surrounding area and the Northeast region, serving as an important component of regional energy logistics.

⚠️ Pain Points & Challenges

When managing dispersed multiple oil depots, the customer faced the pain point of "inconsistency":

Large differences in depot conditions: Different oil depots were built in different years. Aging depots suffer from severe pipeline corrosion, while newer depots face impurity issues during the new tank break-in period, causing inconsistent dispatched fuel quality across depots.

Difficulty in unifying quality control: Previously, each depot used different brands of filters with varying precision, causing downstream customers (logistics fleets) to frequently complain that fuel from a specific depot was not as clean as from others.

Complex maintenance management: Diverse equipment models made spare parts inventory (cartridges, seals) cumbersome, increasing procurement and management costs.

Shipping efficiency bottleneck: All oil depots face queuing pressure during peak dispatch periods, urgently requiring a standardized solution that guarantees both 60m³/h flow rate and unified precision.

🛠️ Solution

The customer decided to adopt a "unified model selection, distributed implementation" strategy, procuring multiple sets of Jingyuan 60m³/h purification units:

Standardized modular design: All equipment adopts unified specifications and interface design. Regardless of which depot it is deployed in, it can be quickly integrated into the existing loading arm system, achieving "plug-and-play."

Polymer Rigid Composite Membrane: Using Jingyuan® polymer rigid composite membrane, leveraging the oleophilic-hydrophobic properties of the membrane material, it efficiently intercepts particulate impurities while synergistically removing trace free water, ensuring dispatched fuel is clear, transparent, and meets cleanliness standards. For the different operating conditions across depots, the internal cartridge configuration offers good adaptability, ensuring the same high-quality fuel output under different conditions.

Centralized spare parts management: Since all 6 stations use the same equipment model, the customer only needs to establish one central spare parts depot to respond to all depot maintenance needs, effectively reducing inventory backlog.

Regional quality baseline: A unified cleanliness baseline (ISO 14/12/10) is set for the entire jurisdiction, and all stations may only dispatch after meeting the standard.

📈 Results

Through the distributed deployment of multiple units, the oilfield successfully narrowed the quality differences among its subordinate depots. Regardless of which sub-depot a tanker truck loads fuel from, the diesel cleanliness achieves ISO 14/12/10 standards. This "standardized replication" model not only improved the overall brand image but also effectively enhanced cross-depot equipment maintenance efficiency. The Jingyuan 60m³/h units have become a benchmark case for standardized depot upgrades in the region.

Customer feedback

Due to varying infrastructure conditions, managing the quality of multiple oil depots used to be a headache. By deploying Jingyuan 60m³/h units as standard equipment across 6 stations, we achieved unified quality output. Now, regardless of which depot the fuel comes from, the dispatched diesel all meets the same high standards.
