The 6th Institute of Aerospace Science and Technology developed a high pressure solenoid valve for deep sea blowout preventer testing

[China Instrument Network Instrument R&D] Recently, the high-pressure solenoid valve used by North China Petroleum Deep-sea Blowout Preventers undertaken by 11 expedition companies of the 6th Institute of Aerospace Science and Technology successfully completed the test and delivered the product.


The solenoid valve is another high-pressure solenoid valve product that is applied to a submarine integrated auxiliary equipment solenoid valve and is suitable for a 3,000-meter submarine environment. The successful R&D of this product has broken the monopoly of foreign countries and has provided powerful help for the development of deep sea drilling and oil and gas development technology in China.

In deepwater drilling operations in oceans, deep-water solenoid valves directly control the start-up of deep-water blowout preventer units, and at the same time work long-term at 3,000 meters underwater. They need to withstand deep-water, low-temperature, and seawater corrosion for long periods of time. These are key equipment for ensuring the safety and reliability of deepwater drilling operations. Requires fast response and high reliability. Due to the high deep-water pressure, deep-water solenoid valves are required to have good high pressure and sealing performance. Due to high technical requirements and difficulties, the product had only been produced by a few companies in the United States and Germany.

The company used the advantages of rocket engine technology, insisted on technological innovation, solved the corrosion problem of seawater solenoid valve in seawater medium, successfully developed the solenoid valve product, and significantly reduced the production cost of the product and improved the product reliability. .
