    On the morning of June 22, the 15th National High-skilled Talent Commendation Conference was held in Beijing.
    Xue Kui of PetroChina Dushanzi Petrochemical Company was awarded the title of "China Skills Award", becoming the first high-skilled talent in Xinjiang to receive this honor


    .


    The China Skills Award is the highest government award in the field of skilled talents in China


    .


    When talking to Xue Kui, who had just received the award, he said excitedly: "In my 30-year career, I have experienced hardships and exhaustion, but happiness belongs to the strugglers


    .


    As the first generation of ethylene technicians in Xinjiang, Xue Kui has participated in the construction of a number of key ethylene projects, discovered and solved more than 100 production problems, organized or participated in more than 20 innovative and profitable projects, and contributed to the development of the ethylene industry in the frontier of the motherland.
    made outstanding contributions


    .


    From ordinary employees to industry leaders, from gold medal players to gold medal coaches, from new employees to young mentors, he has grown and transformed again and again, making him a veritable "big cow" in the technology of the ethylene industry

    With ingenuity, take root in the front line and seek development

    In 1991, Xinjiang 140,000 tons/year ethylene project settled in Dushanzi


    .


    To this end, he used all the time and opportunities he could use to learn knowledge and study technology, and successively completed the English major, chemical engineering undergraduate studies, and obtained a master's degree in engineering


    .


    In order to fully grasp the ethylene production technology, he continued to study across positions and sections, and comprehensively mastered the technologies of the three sections of separation, cracking and compression, and became an all-round operator of ethylene plants
    .
    In 2003 and 2004, he won the "two consecutive championships" in PetroChina and the National Petroleum and Petrochemical Industry Skills Competition, becoming the only one in PetroChina at that time

    .

    In 2005, the Dushanzi 10-million-ton oil refining and 1-million-ton ethylene project was approved for construction
    .
    During the technical data review, he cleared out nearly 400 problems with the ethylene plant, and put forward revision opinions on major programmatic issues such as the cancellation of expansion joints in the cracked gas pipeline, which made outstanding contributions to the smooth progress of the project.
    A century-old classic project

    .
    Since then, Xue Kui has been silently guarding the country's important weapon for the development of the country's western region, and has gradually become the "Dinghaishenzhen" to solve key problems at critical moments

    .

    At the end of 2018, Dushanzi Petrochemical implemented an ethylene optimization and adjustment project and built a new cracking furnace
    .
    Xue Kui went into battle again, soaked in the construction site during the day, compared the technical data at night, and found a number of major problems such as design and construction errors of the steam drum lift line

    .
    The project was completed in 2019, setting a record for the shortest construction period of similar cracking furnaces in China.
    After the project was put into operation, the annual production capacity of ethylene of Dushanzi Petrochemical reached 1.
    4 million tons, making it the largest ethylene plant in use in the country

    Practicing craftsmanship, overcoming difficulties and creating stunts

    Practicing craftsmanship, overcoming difficulties and creating stunts

    Xue Kui always regards solving practical production problems as the starting point and end point of learning technology
    .

    In 2001, he led the team to carefully analyze the three-year production data of the 140,000-ton/year ethylene plant, and put forward 17 suggestions including "optimizing the operation of the acetylene reactor", which completely solved the production problem of "two lows and one high" in the plant, and increased efficiency every year.
    Nearly 450 million yuan

    .

    He put forward a proposal to "increase the steam venting pipeline of cracking furnace" in Dushanzi Petrochemical's million-ton ethylene plant.
    During the maintenance and shutdown phase in 2015, the plant reduced flare emissions by a total of 5,785 tons, realizing the first "green start-up" of zero flare emissions in a large-scale ethylene plant in China.
    "

    .

    His original "Precise Adjustment Method of Cracking Furnace" greatly prolongs the operation period of light hydrocarbon cracking furnace and improves the production efficiency of a single furnace.

    Xue Kui is a model worker mentor of China University of Petroleum and a youth growth mentor of the Karamay Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League
    .
    He is committed to the training of young workers, and has successively written and compiled technical materials such as "Basic Theory Knowledge of Ethylene Plants" and "Linde Ethylene Driving Instruction Manual".
    Widely promoted in the industry

    .

    On June 21, PetroChina's "Skilled Leading Talents Going to Enterprises to Do Practical Things and Petroleum Red Mark Visits" activity was launched, and an expert service group was organized to assist the enterprise in solving production sites and personnel training.
    Difficult and hot issues

    .
    As the head of the Northeast Line Expert Service Team, Xue Kui went to Tangshan, Hebei after receiving the award in Beijing.
    He joined other experts to carry out technical inspections and tackle key problems in production technology, focusing on innovation and development, quality improvement and efficiency improvement

    .

    For 30 years, Xue Kui, with his persistent pursuit of self-improvement, meticulous research spirit and daring to take the lead, has left the imprint of the times as a practitioner of craftsmanship and petroleum spirit on the frontier of the motherland
