Oil well blowout preventer Manufacturers

How do oil well blowout preventer manufacturers ensure that every component of the blowout preventer meets strict quality standards?

1. Follow industry standards and specifications
International and domestic standards: Manufacturers will follow international and domestic standards such as API 16A (published by the American Petroleum Institute, blowout preventers for continuous tubing operations) and GB/T 20174 (Chinese national standard, blowout preventers for continuous tubing operations). These standards specify the design, manufacturing, testing and certification requirements of blowout preventers in detail.
Special standards: For specific operating environments or needs, manufacturers will also follow special requirements standards such as API 16ST specifically for continuous tubing blowout preventers.
2. Quality control of raw materials and parts
Strict material selection: Manufacturers will strictly screen raw materials to ensure that the key components such as metal materials and rubber seals used meet the design requirements and have sufficient strength and corrosion resistance.
Supplier management: Strictly evaluate and select suppliers to ensure that the quality of parts provided by suppliers is reliable.
3. Quality control of the production process
Production process control: formulate detailed production process regulations, strictly control every link in the production process, and ensure that every component is processed and assembled according to the design requirements.
Quality inspection: set up multiple quality inspection points in the production process, and strictly inspect semi-finished products and finished products to ensure that the geometric dimensions, surface quality, performance parameters, etc. of the components meet the standards.
4. Finished product inspection and testing
Comprehensive inspection: conduct a comprehensive inspection of the finished blowout preventer, including appearance inspection, dimension measurement, functional testing, etc., to ensure that every component meets the design requirements.
Performance testing: conduct water pressure testing, gas pressure testing, etc., simulate the actual working environment, and inspect the blowout prevention effect and performance stability of the blowout preventer.
Record and mark: record the results of inspection and testing, and mark qualified blowout preventers for traceability and management.
5. Continuous improvement and feedback
Quality feedback mechanism: establish a quality feedback mechanism, collect problems and feedback encountered by users during use, and analyze and improve them in a timely manner.
Technology upgrade: according to market demand and technological development, continuously upgrade and optimize products and production processes to ensure that product quality always maintains a leading level.
6. Quality control system
Establish a quality management system: Manufacturers will establish a quality management system such as ISO 9001 to control and manage the entire process of product design, procurement, production, inspection, etc.
Third-party certification: Through certification and audit by a third-party organization, ensure the effectiveness of the quality management system and the reliability of product quality.

Have oil well blowout preventer suppliers taken effective environmental protection measures to reduce the discharge of wastewater, waste gas and solid waste?
1. Wastewater treatment
During oil well operations, a large amount of wastewater containing suspended solid particles, grease and chemicals will be generated. In order to reduce the pollution of these wastewaters to the environment, suppliers and operators usually take the following measures:
Wastewater treatment facilities: Set up wastewater treatment stations and use sedimentation, filtration, biodegradation and other technologies to treat wastewater to meet emission standards or achieve wastewater reuse.
Recycling: Use part of the treated wastewater for cooling systems or irrigation, etc. to achieve resource recycling.
2. Waste gas treatment
During drilling and production, harmful gases such as hydrogen sulfide and methane will be emitted. In order to reduce the harm of these waste gases to the atmosphere and personnel health, suppliers and operators will take the following measures:
Waste gas treatment technology: such as spray washing, adsorbent adsorption, combustion, etc., to reduce the release of harmful gases into the atmosphere.
Equipment upgrade: Use low-emission, high-efficiency equipment and processes to reduce waste gas generation from the source.
3. Solid Waste Treatment
Solid waste generated during oil well operations, such as drilling mud, abandoned equipment and packaging materials, will pollute the soil and groundwater if not properly handled. Therefore, suppliers and operators will take the following measures:
Classification and collection: Classify and collect solid waste for subsequent treatment.
Safe disposal: Send solid waste to compliant disposal facilities for treatment, such as harmless treatment or resource utilization.
4. Comprehensive environmental protection measures
In addition to specific treatment measures for wastewater, waste gas and solid waste, suppliers may also take the following comprehensive environmental protection measures:
Environmental impact assessment: Before carrying out oil well engineering, conduct a detailed environmental impact assessment and formulate corresponding environmental protection planning plans.
Technological innovation: Introduce advanced oilfield mining technology and pollution prevention and control technology to reduce the generation of pollutants from the source.
Environmental monitoring: Establish a complete environmental monitoring system to regularly monitor and evaluate the impact of oilfield operations on the environment, and promptly discover and solve problems.
