Recently, Launching ceremony for the Well Stimulation Vessel “HAI YANG SHI YOU 696”of China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC)was held at Wuhu Shipyard Co.,Ltd. It was Classed with China Classification Society (CCS). CCS Wuhu Branch was invited to attend the ceremony.
The vessel “Hai yang Shi you 696” is characterized by high integration and intelligence, with such advantages as high displacement, high power, large reserves, etc. With high operation safety, it can achieve efficient and large-scale fracturing at sea. As the first integrated large-scale Well Stimulation Vessel in China, its overall performance has reached the global-leading level.
The vessel has an overall length of 99.8 meters, a beam of 22 meters, and a depth of 9.9 meters. Its system operating pressure reaches up to 15,000 psi, and it employs a Closed Ring Closed Busbar for dynamic positioning (DP). It holds additional certifications including Well Stimulation, i-Ship, DP-2 (CR), and Electrical Propulsion System (Note: "Propulsion" may be the intended term). Upon completion, the vessel will meet new operational demands in China's maritime areas, such as large-scale fracturing operations, batch fracturing for multiple offshore wells, and fracturing in gas wells and ultra-deep layers. It will fill critical gaps in offshore oilfield fracturing technology and engineering capabilities.
Tips:
Well Stimulation vessel is specifically designed for hydraulic stimulation operations in offshore oil and gas field exploitation. It is equipped with professional equipment including large stimulation pump units, storage tanks, etc., and aims to increase the permeability and production of oil and gas by injecting high-pressure fluid into the formation to form cracks in the rock.
