Exploration 1: Why choose gas turbines for difficult and low-calorific value moisture reuse?

Low calorific value moisture is an associated gas produced during energy extraction such as oil and natural gas fields, with low calorific value and complex composition, making it difficult for traditional technologies to use efficiently. Direct emissions or combustion not only cause waste of resources, but may also cause pollution to the environment.

As an important energy base in China, Tuha Oilfield has a large number of low-calorific value oil discharge resources in multiple oil production management blocks of the entire oilfield under the huff and puff production process, which was previously burned by torch burning or direct venting. Traditional technologies are difficult to use these resources efficiently, which not only causes waste, but may also cause a burden on the environment, and the oilfield has long faced the problem of low calorific value moisture treatment.

 

Gas turbine technology has the following characteristics for low calorific value moistureCore strengths

1. Efficient Energy Conversion:
 

Through the innovative combustion system, stable operation under low calorific value conditions;

Efficiently convert moisture into electrical and thermal energy, greatly improving resource utilization.

2. Adaptable:
 

Adapt to the complex composition and fluctuation of low calorific value moisture to ensure stable operation;

The modular design allows for easy installation and maintenance, making it suitable for complex environments such as oilfields.

3. Environmentally Friendly:
 

Clean combustion technology is used to greatly reduce harmful gas emissions;

Moisture reuse reduces direct emissions and reduces environmental pollution.

4. Outstanding Affordability:
 

The reuse of low calorific value moisture reduces resource waste and creates economic benefits;

Efficient operation of gas turbines reduces energy costs and improves project economics.

 

Exploration2: Why did Tuha Oilfield choose ENN Power for the second time?

The second cooperation between Tuha Oilfield and ENN Power is not only based on the recognition of gas turbine solution technology, but also a comprehensive trust in its strength and service.So, how does ENN Power do it?

 

ENN Power's gas turbine-based energy solution is designed for low calorific value moisture, and through innovative combustion systems and efficient energy conversion technology, it converts moisture that is difficult to use into electricity and heat, greatly improving energy utilization.

The Tuha Phase I E390 project is located in the Luzhong Joint Station of the Rukeqin Oil Production Management Zone of Tuha Oilfield, and was put into operation in November 2023 and has been in stable operation for more than a year. ENN Power's gas turbine energy solution not only overcomes the harsh natural environment such as high temperature, drought, and wind and sand in the Turpan area of Xinjiang, but also achieves significant energy conservation and emission reduction effects.

 

ENN Power has optimized the performance of micro-combustion engines through technological innovation, allowing them to handle low calorific value moisture more efficiently while further reducing nitrogen oxide emissions. In addition, ENN Power also provides customized solutions for Tuha Oilfield, including intelligent equipment upgrades and remote operation and maintenance services, to ensure the stable operation of the system.

From the design of technical solutions to the installation and commissioning of equipment, to the later operation and maintenance support, ENN Power has always been centered on customer needs, providing customized solutions and efficient service guarantees.This customer-first philosophy makes Tuha Oilfield feel a true partnership, not a simple supplier relationship.
