Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a supercapacitor energy storage workover rig?
A: It is an electric workover rig that integrates supercapacitor energy storage with variable frequency drive technology. The supercapacitor module absorbs grid power during idle intervals and releases stored energy during high-load lifting operations, enabling full-performance workover even with limited grid capacity.
Q: What are the advantages of supercapacitors over batteries for workover rigs?
A: Supercapacitors offer extremely high power density, exceptional efficiency, and extraordinarily long operational life – up to 1,000,000 charge/discharge cycles (~20 years). They handle the frequent, high-current charge/discharge demands of workover operations much better than batteries, which suffer from rapid capacity decay, high temperature rise, and low system efficiency.
Q: What is the minimum grid capacity required?
A: Our supercapacitor workover rigs operate on existing 50 kVA / 400V pumping unit transformers. This eliminates the need for complex and expensive high-voltage line installation and demolition.
Q: How much energy can I save compared to a diesel rig?
A: Field application results demonstrate energy cost savings of over 60% compared to conventional diesel-powered workover rigs. The XJ900DB saved 7.67 tons of fuel and 28,800 RMB in energy costs during a 3-month trial.
Q: How does the supercapacitor system charge and discharge?
A: The system operates on a "peak shaving and valley filling” strategy. The supercapacitor absorbs grid power during idle or low-load intervals and releases stored energy during high-load lifting operations. This happens automatically through the intelligent control system with a response time of less than 100 milliseconds.
Q: Can the system recover energy during pipe lowering?
A: Yes. The system recovers regenerative energy during braking and lowering operations. Approximately 0.4 kWh of energy is recovered per lowering cycle of a 3,000-meter drill string.
Q: How long do the supercapacitors last?
A: Supercapacitors are rated for up to 1,000,000 deep charge/discharge cycles, equivalent to approximately 20 years of service life.
Q: What is the operating temperature range?
A: The system operates reliably from -20°C to +45°C with splash-proof and cooling technology.
Q: Can the rig operate with other power sources?
A: Yes. The system is compatible with grid power, diesel generators, natural gas generators, and photovoltaic systems.
Q: Does the supercapacitor system change the driller's operating habits?
A: No. The system is designed to be transparent to operators – it does not alter the work cycle or the driller's operating habits.
Q: Are your products API certified?
A: Yes. SJ Petro holds API, ISO9001 , and HSE management system certifications. Our rigs are designed and manufactured in compliance with API Spec Q1, 4F, 7K, 8C, and RP500 standards.
Q: Do you offer OEM or customized solutions?
A: Absolutely. We offer comprehensive customization including supercapacitor capacity selection, power configuration, chassis specifications, automation packages, and climate-specific engineering.
Q: Can you retrofit my existing electric workover rig with supercapacitor storage?
A: Yes. We offer retrofit solutions to upgrade existing electric workover rigs with supercapacitor energy storage control systems.
Q: What is your manufacturing capacity and lead time?
A: We have the largest workover equipment manufacturing base in China with comprehensive production capabilities. Lead times vary by configuration – contact our sales team for specific project timelines.
Q: Do you provide after-sales support and spare parts?
A: Yes. We offer comprehensive after-sales support including spare parts supply, equipment inspection, testing, and major overhaul services.
