Chapter Seventy-one: Daqing also wants

  Su Cheng is very clear about the gap between Dahua Industry and Daqing. He not only inquired about Li Rengan and others, but also studied during his school days.

  However, the gap in pure technology does not represent a gap in practical effect. Su Cheng smiled lightly and asked back: "Daqing's technology is indeed good, so to say, have you used ion-sulfurized carbon oil pipes?"

  Xue Jie's tone was slightly hesitant, but she didn't mince words and said straightforwardly: "Tempering with carbon! The effect of ion nitriding is not as good as yours, the wear resistance is about the same as your full set of equipment. However, you missed one thing."

  "Oh?"

  "You haven't done any anti-corrosion treatment. The wear and tear of the oil well is not just a matter of hardness and straightness, but also has a great relationship with oil and gas corrosion. If you only have abrasion resistance without corrosion resistance, it's basically useless." Xue Jie finally revealed a pleased expression, but it didn't make people feel angry. For a beautiful girl, rich expressions would only increase her charm.

  But Su Cheng just took a glance and withdrew his gaze, repeating in a light tone: "The technology of Daqing Machinery Factory is indeed good."

  "Don't you believe?"

  "I believe it, and I also know that you've lined your trees with resin." Su Cheng's expression became even more relaxed than before.

  Xue Jie was very reluctant, but couldn't help asking out of curiosity: "How did you know?"

  There are many methods for anti-corrosion treatment of oil pipes, such as nitriding, chrome plating, blackening treatment, and multi-element infiltration, etc. The inner lining resin process is suitable for oil pipes, but it's not a common method. Xuejie didn't want to show her curiosity, but she really was curious.

  "Because you can produce resin on your own."

  What reason is this. Xue Jie was shocked, but thinking again, the factory chose to use inner lining resin as an anti-corrosion measure, and it's not that there's no intention of supporting the resin factory.

  After a moment of anger, Su Cheng had already returned to the oil well where he worked. Xue Jie couldn't help but chase after him, saying: "Since you've guessed it, you should know that our special oil pipe's effect is more than twice as good as your anti-deviation grinding system, you're definitely going to lose."

  Su Cheng smiled: "You didn't do corrosion resistance, that's good. If you did corrosion resistance, you would have lost for sure."

  ……

  Xuejie only felt that Su Cheng's smile was hateful enough.

  She has a strong curiosity about everything, especially petroleum technology. Her desire for knowledge made her ask Su Cheng repeatedly, which had already reached the limit of what she could bear.

  However, Su City still left her with an enigma.

  Xuejie returned to the hotel, still thinking about Su Cheng's words.

  The team leader saw it and immediately asked with concern: "Xiao Xue, have you encountered any difficulties?"

  "Director Zhuang." Xue Jie hesitated for a moment, recounting the process of running into Su Cheng today, and then asked: "I've been thinking about it, but I still don't understand. Why is it that when we didn't do the corrosion resistance test, everything was fine, but once we did it, we were bound to lose?"

  Director Zhuang chuckled and said: "He's just bluffing you. Students in the Chinese department are like that, all bark and no bite. I'm also a graduate of the Chinese department."

  "I don't think so." Xue Jie shook her head.

  "I don't understand the technical stuff. But I've heard that our high-frequency quenching and tempering oil pipes are only one generation behind those imported from the US, and the inner resin coating is even more advanced..."

  Xue Jie smiled and said, "Director Zhuang, you're showing weakness. Our process is infiltration carbonization quenching, which is even better than high-frequency infiltration carbonization, with a wear resistance that's twice as high."

  "Alas, I was criticized again for reciting books yesterday. I always feel that high-frequency ones should be of a higher grade." Director Zhuang chuckled and said, "If it's so good, could it be a cost issue?"

  Xue Jie shook her head and said, "Their price is 2000, ours is 4000. Although it's twice as expensive, the effect is more than twice as good. They didn't even do anti-corrosion treatment, if used in high-yield oil wells, problems will arise within a year, and the fault-free time may be only half a year. I think they probably want to compete for other oil wells?"

  Director Zhuang immediately cooperated and said: "That should be it. In addition to the high-yielding oil well, the Victory Oil Field also has more than 10,000 other oil wells, which is enough for them."

  "The equipment for high-yield oil wells, low-grade oil wells, it's good to replace the equipment once every 10 years," Xue Jie said with a great mood. "Our goal is to have high-yield oil wells of over 100 tons, and Victory Oil Field has about two or three thousand wells, which have always used our oil pipes. At 4,000 yuan per year, it's more than half cheaper than imported products, and also saves foreign exchange. Other petroleum machinery factories have a price, but the ones they use are either gas nitriding or high-frequency carburizing, neither of which can compare to ours."

  Xue Jie appeared calm on the surface, but upon returning to her room, she was still puzzled: Why did Su Cheng say that he would definitely lose!

  At this time, she had already tied herself and the machinery factory together.

  After a few days, the Victory Oilfield Product Department inspected the sucker rod and anti-deviation grinding system installed by both parties, gave the appraisal results, and then asked for instructions from the leaders, and gathered everyone together to hold a meeting.

  Xue Jie and the officials of Daqing Oilfield entered the conference room, only to see that the conference room had already been arranged in a quadrilateral talk. Beijing Petroleum Machinery Factory, Dahua Industry and Victory Oilfield each occupied one side, Su Cheng sat upright with his chest out at the head of the conference table, wearing a suit, nodding to her.

  Xue Jie was taken aback for a moment and also nodded hastily. When she looked again, Su Cheng was already whispering to the person beside him.

  A deputy director-level cadre came from Daqing, and the Victory Oil Field sent a deputy director-level Lin Yonggui to preside over the meeting, which was considered to be of equal level on both sides.

  Beijing Petroleum Machinery Factory is an old petroleum machinery factory, perhaps too old. The regional pressure is great and the company's situation gets worse year by year. Businessmen are sent all over the world to try to bring back some business.

  Such meetings are almost held annually, and everyone is familiar with the process. After a brief introduction to each other's products, it's time for price negotiations. As the host, Victory Oilfield can also compare prices and quality to the greatest extent in this process.

  Xue Jie gave a clear and concise five-minute technical presentation, full of confidence as she sat down. She couldn't help but feel smug when she saw Dong Jianjiang, the representative from Beishi Machinery, looking extremely displeased. The technique of infiltrating carbon and quenching fire was something she had spent a year and a half mastering with her team, and its technical content was second only to that of Changqing Oilfield nationwide. What's different is that Changqing Oilfield imported this technology from abroad, which made it slightly better in quality but also much more expensive, at around 9,000 yuan, and was only used on high-yield deviated wells prone to wear and tear.

  Dong Jianjiang stood up second, he simply didn't introduce the high-frequency quenching and tempering oil pipe of the same price as his own family, but instead talked about the conventional quenching and tempering nitrogen oil pipe and the conventional quenching and tempering phosphating oil pipe. The prices of these two are quite competitive, after all, like nitriding process, they belong to pre-war inventions, and the cost is not much higher than that of ordinary pipes.

  In comparison, the leaders of the Shengli Oil Field were very inattentive.

  It was Su Cheng who listened very seriously instead.

  Five minutes later, they arrived at Dahua Industrial Estate.

  Su Cheng stood up, took two minutes to introduce the three departments of the anti-bias grinding system, and then spent another minute introducing the patent situation. Suddenly, he said: "The anti-bias grinding system is different from traditional anti-bias grinding methods in one major way - our system has superimposed properties. Using our anti-bias grinding system, any type of oil extraction rod can be used... we conducted a comparative experiment..."

  Just this sentence made Xuejie have a bad association.

  Several technical officers from the Victory Oilfield Products Department nodded in agreement. The anti-wear system is an independent system, which is its biggest selling point.

  As for the price of several thousand yuan, it is not a problem at all for resource-based enterprises that are not worried about sales.

  Director Yang handed out a stack of printed paper, and Su Cheng continued: "The main enemy of oil well deviation grinding is wear and tear. Let's talk about anti-wear properties first. Taking ordinary quenched oil sucker rod as an example, the ordinary quenched oil sucker rod with our anti-deviation grinding system has its anti-wear level increased by 3 times; using high-frequency quenched oil sucker rod, the anti-wear level is increased by 6 times; using carburized quenched oil sucker rod, the anti-wear level is increased by 9 times. No matter which scheme is adopted, the anti-wear level is improved and the price is reduced..."

  Su Cheng paused for a moment, then continued: "For anti-corrosion requirements, we have two options. For daily production of less than 100 tons of deep straight wells, we use an anti-deviation grinding system and blackening treatment of ordinary quenching oil extraction rods, which is equivalent to using single-layer carburizing quenching chrome-plated oil extraction rods, but the price is only one-third of that. For high-yield deep slant wells, we can use an anti-deviation grinding system and chrome-plated oil extraction rods. Although the price increases by 2,000 yuan, the service life increases by more than twice."

  He looked at the direction of Daqing Machinery Factory and added: "The anti-deviation grinding system with chrome-plated oil rods is better than the imported ion-sulfurized carbon-lined resin oil rods from abroad..."

  Xuejie closed her eyes slightly. She only now understood why Su Cheng said "Once you've become tolerant of corruption, you're bound to lose."

  Because the main enemy of anti-abrasive is wear and tear, although corrosion can cause a decrease in the anti-wear ability of the oil rod, Dahua Industry's anti-abrasive system does not directly contact crude oil, they are locked on the oil rod with card clips.

  As a result, the low corrosion and severe wear conditions that the oil sucker rod used to face have become low corrosion and low wear with the anti-deviation grinding system. Daqing Machinery Factory can barely compete with its anti-wear ability if it doesn't do special anti-corrosion treatment, but once it does, the other side just needs to add a nitrogen pipe and their inner liner resin becomes pure cost...

  In fact, at a price of over 4,000, they have no profit left.

  The Daqing Machinery Factory side looked at each other in silence for a while, not knowing what to say. The anti-deviation grinding system had completely surpassed the Daqing Machinery Factory's inner liner resin infiltration carbon quenching oil extraction rod, which made them, who were full of confidence, somewhat difficult to accept.

  In terms of oil fields, after a private discussion, Lin Yonggui announced: Procurement of 5,000 sets of anti-deviation grinding system.

  Daqing's sucker rod only got a symbolic order of 100 roots, which is estimated to be used with the anti-deviation grinding system.

  Instead, Beishi Machine benefited from the disaster and sold more than 4,000 pipes of various types at once. Although the price was very low, it made Dong Jianjiang overjoyed, holding Su Cheng's hand tightly and saying: "The salaries of our entire factory's thousands of employees are now secure. We men can't let the women and children eat poorly..."

  A man in his 40s showing genuine emotions, also made Su City sigh. There are too many factories producing oil extraction rods nationwide, and town enterprises that made money a few years ago have also entered this field on a large scale, making it hard for state-owned factories to breathe. At this time, talking about the system is meaningless. Su City had an idea, patted Dong Jianjiang's shoulder and said: "If you are willing, let's work together and do a few more deals."

  "Willing, willing. We Beishi Machine, are willing to take the lead in Dahua Industry." Dong Jianjiang's lips trembled. Although they could also produce high-frequency quenching oil rods, the cost was so high that there was no profit at all, and instead, a large number of ordinary oil rods might be able to revive the factory. He had previously thought that the era of ordinary oil rods had ended, but Dahua Industry's anti-deviation grinding system made him see a glimmer of light.

  Xuejie was still immersed in disappointment, preparing to quietly leave the scene. The oilfield leader who came with him, however, stopped and asked: "Comrade Su, our Daqing Oilfield also wants to purchase a batch of anti-bias grinding systems. Can your production capacity keep up?"

  Xue Jie's eyes widened suddenly, like a cartoon character.
