Xinjiang Oilfield has launched the world's first 110kV solid-state heat storage electric steam boiler, marking a breakthrough in clean heavy oil extraction. Heavy oil's high viscosity requires thermal stimulation, traditionally powered by gas. This "green electric steam boiler" integrates renewable electricity, annually consuming 120 million kWh of green energy and replacing 13 million cubic meters of natural gas. The project opens a new pathway for sustainable thermal recovery and green energy utilization in China's energy transition.
