Sinopec Oilfield Equipment's 90MPa High-Pressure Compressor Powers Marine Energy
Sinopec Oilfield Equipment Corporation (SOFE, 000852.SZ), a leading Chinese energy
equipment manufacturer, announced on May 7 that its self-developed 90MPa ultra-high-
pressure compressor has been successfully deployed in marine energy development,
achieving international advanced technological standards and leading domestic market
share. The company also disclosed that its 2025 order volume surpassed RMB 10 billion,
solidifying its position as a core supplier for China's deep-earth, unconventional oil and
gas, marine energy, and hydrogen energy sectors.
Marine energy exploration demands equipment with exceptional corrosion resistance,
high reliability, and compact design to withstand harsh deep-sea environments, and
SOFE's 90MPa high-pressure compressor addresses these challenges by integrating 30+
years of compressor R&D expertise and breakthroughs in key "bottleneck" technologies.
Featuring two-stage compression and high-efficiency cooling systems, the compressor
delivers high compression efficiency with low energy consumption, and its metal
diaphragm design completely isolates compressed gas from lubricating oil, ensuring zero
pollution, zero hydrogen leakage, and 99.99% gas purity—critical for marine hydrogen and
natural gas applications. Engineered for offshore platform space, the unit's compact
footprint simplifies installation and maintenance, making it ideal for deepwater oil and
gas production, offshore hydrogen refueling stations, and marine CCUS (Carbon Capture,
Utilization and Storage) projects, and as one of SOFE's flagship products, it has secured
leading domestic market share and become a benchmark for high-pressure compressor
technology in China.
The 90MPa compressor is part of SOFE's broader push into marine energy equipment,
with multiple products now commercially deployed in offshore projects, including China's
first fully electric offshore fracturing solution—the All-Electric Marine Fracturing System
(25,000hp)—which enables automated, large-scale fracturing operations on platforms, the
Marine Hydraulic Workover Unit (2,250kN) designed for small, low-load offshore platforms
that breaks foreign monopolies in marine workover technology, and offshore cementing &
underwater wellhead equipment that supports deepwater well construction and subsea
production system deployment.
Despite a challenging global oil and gas market in 2025, SOFE delivered resilient financial
results, with total orders reaching RMB 10.004 billion (nearly flat year-over-year), operating
revenue of RMB 7.204 billion, and international orders rising 23% YoY to RMB 2.09 billion,
with products entering supply chains of global energy giants like TotalEnergies, solidifying
its status as a national core equipment supplier for deep-earth engineering, marine oil and
gas, hydrogen energy, and CCUS initiatives.
Looking ahead, SOFE remains committed to its "core technology + manufacturing
+ integrated solutions" strategy, continuing to invest in high-pressure compressors,
marine equipment, and hydrogen energy technologies to support China's energy security
and low carbon transition. With the 90MPa compressor leading the charge, SOFE is poised
to strengthen its domestic market leadership and expand its global footprint in marine
energy and new energy equipment sectors.
