Xinchun Oilfield Case Study: PCP Artificial Lift Systems Innovation

Published: Nov 09, 2024

Artificial Lift Technology Breakthrough

Hengxin Beishi's artificial lift solution has been successfully deployed in the Xinchun Oilfield. Led by Director Tong, this installation eliminated the traditional anchoring device and adopted China's first intelligent conical progressing cavity pump (PCP). This artificial lift equipment completely removes the risk of tubing back‑off and provides core technical support for heavy oil production and highly corrosive oil and gas lifting scenarios.

Innovation Value

This artificial lift PCP unit is specifically engineered for extreme operating conditions:

  • Eliminates the anchoring structure to simplify installation processes.

  • Utilizes corrosion‑resistant materials to match high‑gas‑cut heavy oil lifting.

  • Employs energy‑saving technology to increase shallow light‑oil production efficiency by 25%.

It has become a benchmark artificial lift solution for complex oil and gas fields.

Technology Ecosystem Empowerment

The Xinjiang technical team (Zhang Zhihai and Yang Hu) strictly implemented Hengxin Beishi’s artificial lift solution standards.

This project has verified the reliability of Hengxin Beishi's "artificial lift equipment + intelligent system + process ecosystem" model, providing a reusable technical blueprint for oil and gas lifting across China and continuously driving the intelligent evolution of artificial lift systems.
