China's Oil Concentration Reserve Management Has a "Basket Effect"

“According to the procurement contract, 60% of the spare parts for 1500 kinds of compressor spare parts arrived on April 15th, and we are fully prepared for it.” Zhang Lili, engineer of Chengdu Compressor Plant of Jichai Power Plant with slightly Sichuan accent, was excited Told reporters. This day is March 15.

The spare parts reserve for compressor spare parts is another major step for China National Petroleum Corporation to achieve centralized reserve after seamless reserve, and it is also a major measure for the overall layout of the company's material concentration reserve.

According to the person in charge of the Procurement Division 2 of the China Petroleum Materials Purchase Center, the centralized spare parts of the compressor spares are like baskets that are originally scattered in several baskets. This will not only facilitate centralized procurement, reduce procurement risks and costs, but also enable Other baskets achieve zero inventory and reduce costs. The effect of the centralized spare parts of the compressor spare parts is to make the spare parts of more than 3,000 types worth of 200 million yuan in the original 6 oil and gas field reserves become 1500 kinds of spare parts worth over 70 million yuan in Chengdu Compressor Factory, which consists of 6 Oil and gas fields are shared to achieve centralized professional management and maintenance. This “basket effect” is the result of the joint advancement of multiple departments of the group company, various oil and gas field units, and the Ji Chai Chengdu compressor plant.

Cracking Gas Reservoir Construction Spare Parts Challenge

In order to ease the shortage of natural gas that occurs in the winter each year, from the perspective of fulfilling its political responsibilities and social responsibilities, China National Petroleum Corporation selected six units: Liaohe Oilfield, Changqing Oilfield, Huabei Oilfield, Dagang Oilfield, Xinjiang Oilfield, and Southwest Oil and Gas Field. On January 27th, the construction of 10 underground gas storages was started, and it is planned to add 24.4 billion cubic meters of peak shaving work volume.

The gas storages range from 2000 meters to 4000 meters in depth, and the underground conditions are different, requiring different power compressors. The compressor is the core equipment of the gas storage, like the heart of human beings. It consists of more than 1,000 parts and components. The problem of one part may affect the work of the heart. In March 2010, CNPC decided to implement unified management of compressors' long-cycle equipment, give full play to the company's overall advantages, centralize procurement, and reduce procurement risks and costs.

In August 2010, after the Group Company implemented the centralized procurement of gas storage compressors, it further determined that each oil and gas field company and each reserve bank would not build a spare parts spare bank separately. The Chengdu Compressor Factory would build a unified bank and implement a centralized reserve. Realize zero inventory of spare parts for each gas storage and reduce production and operation costs.

In order to achieve this goal, China Petroleum Exploration and Production Branch organizes relevant units to compile a unified technical document, forms four standardized design provisions, provides a unified technical document for the development of gas storage design for six oil and gas field units, and purchases spare parts for compressors. And lay a solid foundation for the reserve.

Centralized reserve list and standard introduction

“According to the original working procedures, spare parts were stored by the user units. In this way, six oil and gas fields require more than 3,000 spare parts and require 200 million yuan of capital, which can easily result in duplication of spare parts and waste.” A China directly involved in spare parts procurement negotiations Staff of the procurement department of the Petroleum Material Purchase Center said.

After PetroChina realized the procurement of technology and trade integration for compressors, it placed the spare parts centralized reserve management on the agenda.

On November 7, 2011, centralized procurement and reserve of spare parts for gas storage compressors were held in Chengdu. More than 30 experts including Changqing Oilfield, Liaohe Oilfield, Huabei Oilfield, Southwest Oil and Gas Field, Dagang Oilfield, Xinjiang Oilfield, and Jichai Power Plant Chengdu Compressor Plant, as well as the China Petroleum Material Purchase Center, and other units attended the meeting.

Based on the determination of the specifications of the gas storage compressors, the experts confirmed the principles of the “comprehensive management, scale control, scientific distribution, unified deployment, timely supply, and production guarantee” and confirmed the main compressor compressors, compression cylinders, and couplings. , Motors, Air Coolers, Unit Valves, Unit Instrumentation, and Unit Electrics are among the eight major categories of spare parts centralized reserve lists and reserve standards.

In accordance with the criteria for meeting the requirements of a newly installed unit, a total of more than 1,000 items were eventually formed under the joint efforts of the Group's Materials Purchasing Management Department, Exploration and Production Branch, Equipment Manufacturing Subsidiary, Material Purchasing Center, and related oil and gas field staff. List.

Pursuant to the strategic purchase agreement signed between PetroChina and Canadian Propac Corporation, the procurement contract will be executed before the end of 2011, and Propak will supply it at the original price. After the list was confirmed, Procurement Center Procurement Division II speeded up negotiations with suppliers. After many negotiations, the contract was signed on December 22, and the annex to the light protocol had 246 pages. In such a short time, such a large workload is unprecedented. However, the results are also fruitful. It concentrates on the purchase of more than 1,000 spare parts of various specifications and models, and the price is one-fifth of the budgeted cost.

Spare parts reserve construction highlights the advantages of concentration

At the beginning of March, a 200-square-meter material warehouse in Chengdu Compressor Factory was released as a centralized storage warehouse for the first compressor spare parts. To welcome the arrival of the first batch of spare parts on April 15, three young university graduates are currently doing material coding for the ERP system. This work will be completed by March 20.

Zhang Lili, who is responsible for centralized storage in the Chengdu Compressor Works, said that the formal centralized reserve floor must be leveled. To realize the information and automation management of spare parts, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of computer software and bar code management.

Jichai Chengdu Compressor Factory is a specialized compressor manufacturer within the company's system. The spare parts of natural gas compressors are stored here, which not only ensures that users of oil and gas fields can obtain necessary spare parts and specialized services in a timely manner, but also can effectively promote the localization of compressors of large-scale gas storages in Chengdu Compressor Factory and improve the level of Chinese petroleum equipment manufacturing.

The relevant person in charge of the Material Purchase Management Department believes that as a professional compressor manufacturer, the Jichai Chengdu Compressor Works will be responsible for the centralized management and professional distribution of spare parts, which will improve the quality of protection and will accelerate the process of localization. At the same time, it can drive the growth of its technical service team and realize the extension from product production to service.

It can be said that the centralized reserve of spare parts for natural gas compressors is the deepening of the unified tendering and centralized procurement reform of China's petroleum materials system, and it highlights the awareness of China's oil “in one game”. The Exploration and Production Branch, as the business unit of the gas storage, plays a key role in unifying compressor models and advancing centralized reserves. As each of the oil and gas fields that use units, we must consider the overall situation and work closely together to create conditions for the procurement center to complete centralized procurement in a very short period of time. As the headquarters organization, the Department of Materials Sourcing Management plays a role in policy formulation, leadership, and coordination, which fully demonstrates the overall advantages of CNPC in promoting centralized procurement and storage of materials.
