Desert Environment Diesel Purification
A Middle Eastern oilfield operation company is responsible for the development and operation of a large-scale oilfield in that country. The oilfield is one of the country's key oil production zones, with its operational site distributed across numerous drilling platforms, mobile power stations, and heavy-duty operational vehicles.
In the daily operations of the oilfield, fuel quality is an important factor affecting production efficiency:
Extreme environmental contamination: Frequent sandstorms result in large quantities of fine dust particles (silicates) in storage tanks, with fuel cleanliness far below engine requirements.
Fuel stability issues: The significant day-to-night temperature variation in the desert affects the stability of fuel stored in tanks.
Equipment downtime risk: Drill rig generator sets are sensitive to fuel quality, where micron-level impurities can cause injector nozzle seizure.
High logistics costs: The oilfield is located in a remote area, engine filter cartridges are consumed quickly, and frequent spare parts supply and manual maintenance generate high logistics and labor costs.
Jingyuan customized 4 sets of 20m³/h high-flow filtration equipment for this enterprise, deployed at the oilfield's internal fueling station and core operational zones.
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.
High-load filtration: Equipped with high-capacity precision filter cartridges, the single-unit filtration area is significantly increased to handle the high dust content in desert conditions.
Robust design: For high-temperature environments above 50°C, the electrical control system has been thermally optimized and equipped with sun shielding.
After the system was put into operation, the diesel quality used within the oilfield improved to ISO 14/12/10 level. Through the 20m³/h high-flow design, "filter-while-filling" was achieved during fuel intake and dispatch stages, effectively improving operational efficiency. The fuel system failure rate of related drilling equipment decreased significantly.
In desert environments, dust is the primary threat to engines. Jingyuan's 20m³/h filtration system provides reliable protection for oilfield equipment. Its customized design has withstood high-temperature testing, ensuring fuel cleanliness and giving us the confidence to operate equipment stably.
