The spring spirit of March is rippling in Xiongan, a city of thousands of years. In the start-up area of Xiongan New Area, there are many tower cranes and roaring machinery, and large-scale development and construction are still hot.

On April 1, 2017, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council decided to establish Xiongan New Area in Hebei Province. In 2023, Xiongan New Area will enter a stage of paying equal attention to large-scale construction and undertaking Beijing's non-capital functions, and the focus of work will shift to high-quality construction, high-level management, and high-quality relief and development.

Over the past seven years, PetroChina people and the vast number of builders participating in the construction of Xiongan New Area have painted on white paper and built dreams in reality, witnessing Xiongan New Area's transformation from "a piece of land" to "a picture" and then to "A City" The gorgeous butterfly transformation has also spread the "fragrance" of precious stone flowers to every corner of this future city.

Release the oil momentum of jointing growth

Build an energy cornerstone for the "People's City"

General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that "building a 'people's city' suitable for business and livable in the new era."

"This is a brand new modern new city!" In March, Pan Xianbin came to Xiongan New Area again and was deeply shocked by the current scene:High-rise buildings have risen from the ground, roads are interconnected, and green landscapes are scattered everywhere... Six years ago, Pan Xianbin came here as the project leader of the geothermal two-dimensional seismic acquisition project of Dongfang Geophysical Exploration Xiongan New Area and became a member of the "vanguard" of the construction of Xiongan New Area. Now, walking in this land where sweat once flowed, he felt a little unfamiliar.

Behind the strangeness is the city's "jointing growth", which changes every year. Thanks to the stable energy supply, the city's development is "flying".

Thousands of miles away on the Loess Plateau, under the spring light, the industry is busy.

As China's largest oil and gas production base, Changqing Oilfield is continuously supplying natural gas to more than 40 large and medium-sized cities in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and other regions. Xiongan New Area is no exception. In 2023, Changqing Oilfield's oil and gas production equivalent exceeded 60 million tons for the fourth consecutive year, and China's first trillion-cubic-meter atmospheric area was built. The daily emergency peak shaving capacity during the peak winter supply period reached more than 166 million cubic meters, a year-on-year increase of 6 million cubic meters. The energy supply capacity is stronger, more stable and more efficient, which provides solid foundation for the construction of Xiongan New Area.

With batches of enterprises, scientific research units, universities, and hospitals settling in one after another, Xiongan New Area has achieved breakthroughs in undertaking Beijing's non-capital functions, and the smoke of fireworks fills this "treasure land". This also means that the city's demand for refined oil continues to grow.

Oil tankers shuttle back and forth on the streets of the city as far as you can see.

The Northeast Sales Company is fully integrated into the construction of Xiongan New Area. In the past seven years, it has transported more than 70,000 tons of refined oil to Xiongan New Area, achieving uninterrupted supply. In July 2023, Northeast Sales will further leverage the advantages of integrated planning of refined oil resources in North China, carry out proactive distribution business in Hebei, establish a special working group, co-operate with Hebei Sales Company, and prioritize the implementation of highway distribution plans entering Xiongan New Area., automatically push the demand forecast for gas stations in Xiongan New Area for the next day every day to achieve accurate delivery and timely supply.

In the invisible underground, natural gas is traveling to the "last mile" to reach users.

Pipelines are like blood vessels in the city, ensuring the smooth operation of Xiongan New Area. Among them is the pipeline power from China Petroleum. The Pipeline Bureau has successively undertaken the third bid section of the Mengxi Coal-to-Natural Gas Export Pipeline Project and the Beijing-Shihan Gas Pipeline Double Line Project, helping to open up the domestic main natural gas pipeline directly supplying Xiongan New Area. Currently, the Mengxi Line and the Beijing-Shihan Double Line have been successfully integrated into the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei natural gas branch network and the North China gas storage group, enhancing the natural gas peak shaving capabilities of Xiongan New Area.

"Building energy channels, promoting sustainable social and economic development in areas along the route, and improving people's living standards is the glorious mission and responsibility of our pipeline workers." Wang Ji, executive manager of the Beijing-Shihan Double Line of the Second Pipeline Bureau Company, is sincerely proud to see the pipelines running underground improving day by day.

** Supply low-carbon new energy for sustainable development

Set a development model for "green city"

Millennium plans and national events are here.

During his inspection of Xiongan New Area in Hebei Province, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that it is necessary to implement the concept that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, adhere to green and low-carbon development, and build Xiongan New Area into a model for green development cities.

How to make green the main color of Xiongan New Area? PetroChina keeps thinking, exploring, and responding with actions.

"Blue gold" power promotes development--

Back to seven years ago, 67 villages in Nansan Township, Xiong County still couldn't avoid smoke and fire when cooking. In order to allow natural gas, a clean energy source, to benefit more people, PetroChina vigorously promotes the "gas replacing coal" project and engrave green into the "DNA" of Xiongan New Area.

In 2019, natural gas sales Hebei Xiongan Gas Company completed the construction of 180,000 "gas instead of coal" projects and replacement ventilation tasks in Xiongan New Area, using "Xiongan Speed" to allow "blue gold" to enter villages and households. As of the end of March this year, Hebei Xiongan Gas Company has safely and steadily supplied nearly 800 million cubic meters of natural gas to users of "gas instead of coal" in Xiongan New Area, making the sky in the new area bluer and the water greener, bringing the development of the times to the local people. dividends.

To "upgrade" energy, we must also ensure maintenance and guarantee. At present, Hebei Xiongan Gas Company has achieved 100% digitization of pipelines and monitored the operating pipe network in real time to effectively prevent and resolve potential safety hazards; it has opened a 24-hour service hotline to solve problems feedback from users as soon as possible to ensure smooth use of gas by users. uninterrupted.

Underground "hot" love warms people's hearts--

44 deep geothermal wells, 9000 shallow geothermal wells, and 4 heating central stations... Faced with rich geothermal resources, North China Oilfield relies on its unique location advantages and experience advantages to participate in geothermal construction and operation and maintenance services in Xiongan New Area. Since October 2021, Huabei Oilfield has successively undertaken the operation, maintenance and assistance management of heating projects in the Rongdong Area, Rongxi Area and Start-up Area of Xiongan New Area, providing central heating services to 21 residential communities, office areas, commercial areas, etc., with a total heating area of more than 20.7 million square meters, and 36,000 local residents have used this "hot" love from underground.

Energy technology adds power--

The city of the future seems to be able to see the future in the present.

After Xiongan New Area entered a stage of paying equal attention to large-scale construction and undertaking non-capital functions, innovation has become the key to accelerating and improving green development. Over the past five years, Engineering Construction Xiongan 'an Company has successively undertaken more than 40 engineering survey and design projects such as special research on natural gas in Xiongan New Area and heat supply (cooling) in Rongdong Area, achieving a leap in quality and quantity for the development of clean energy in Xiongan New Area. Foundation foundation.

In order to accelerate the cultivation of new growth points and form new momentum, Li Qiang, executive deputy manager of Engineering Construction Xionganan Company, said:"We will set up the Xiongan Innovation Research Institute to promote energy technology innovation, lay out the development and application of new technologies, accelerate the formation of new productive forces, and help Xiongan New Area build a modern new city that is green, low-carbon, information-intelligent, livable and workable."

In 2023, among the many companies settled in Xiongan, Kunlun Manufacturing has become a "giant" that attracts attention among central enterprises.

As an important link in China's petroleum industry chain and value chain, the equipment manufacturing business undertakes the important mission of providing equipment support for the increase of oil and gas reserves and production, the transformation and upgrading of refining and chemical, and the development of "double carbon and three new". Kunlun Manufacturing's choice to settle in Xiongan this time has also become a resolute action and vivid practice of PetroChina to help the development of Xiongan New Area and create an innovative highland for the new era.

"Kunlun Manufacturing will implement professional management and integrated coordination of China's petroleum equipment manufacturing business, which will help equipment manufacturing companies further leverage synergy effects, promote the transformation and development of traditional equipment manufacturing businesses, and lay out strategic emerging industries and future industries." Li Meng, deputy director of the financial operation department of Kunlun Manufacturing, said.

Leading future life--

This is a smart gas station-face-brushing payment, license plate recognition, and geomagnetic induction; this is also a yearning life station-tea tasting, immersive reading, meeting with friends... After the transformation and upgrading, Hebei The first gas station of the sales company Xiongan has met people's good expectations for future gas stations and has become an image window for PetroChina's "People, Vehicles and Life" ecosystem.

At the same time, the newly completed and put into operation Rongdong New Energy Comprehensive Supply Station has become a local "business card station" and "Internet celebrity check-in place" with its high appearance, and has filled the gap in energy transmission in the Rongdong area of Xiongan New Area.

In the future, Hebei Sales will also take advantage of Xiongan's plan to build a "digital city" smart city, participate in the transformation and implementation of "oil, gas, hydrogen, electricity and non-electricity" and transportation, logistics and sales scenarios, and continue to forge PetroChina's contribution to the development of Xiongan New Area. Bright signboard.

Achieve high-quality development in the future--

North China Petrochemical is one of the largest refining and chemical companies closest to Xiongan New Area. In the past year, North China Petrochemical has optimized its structural layout and made solid progress in preliminary work on CCUS, large-scale purification of by-product hydrogen, and bio-aviation fuel projects to supply 160,000 kilograms of high-purity battery hydrogen to the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei new energy market; polycarbonate joint venture cooperation Projects under construction have been accelerated and 13 new products and new brands have been developed.
