Application Case of Online Viscometer in Petrochemical Industry
Date: 2025-06-30Read: 2

Online viscometers are widely used in the petrochemical industry. Here are some specific cases:

Optimization operation of hydrocracking unit: A large refining and chemical enterprise in Zhejiang Province has integrated the FUV-204 ultrasonic online viscometer from Fuji Industries in Japan into an advanced process control (APC) system for the production of lubricant additives, high molecular weight polymers, and other processes. The fully automated optimized operation of the hydrocracking unit has been achieved, reducing the fluctuation amplitude of key process parameters by 70% and significantly reducing the intervention frequency of operators.
Monitoring of petroleum refining process: In the petroleum refining process, viscosity is an important indicator that affects the fluidity of oil products. The high-temperature online viscometer can monitor the viscosity of oil products in real-time in high-temperature environments, providing data support for regulation and optimization in the refining process, helping process personnel better control the refining process, and improving product quality.
Monitoring of crude oil pipeline transportation: When crude oil is transported in pipelines, its viscosity can affect transportation efficiency and energy consumption. The online viscometer can monitor the viscosity of crude oil in real time, and the staff can adjust the transportation parameters such as temperature, pressure, etc. based on the viscosity data to ensure smooth transportation of crude oil, reduce the risk of pipeline blockage, and lower transportation costs.
Viscosity control of natural gas well fracturing fluid: Hydramotion's XL online viscometer can be used on the site of natural gas well fracturing operations. During the fracturing process, real-time viscosity control of the fracturing fluid is required to ensure that it has sufficient viscosity to suspend and carry proppants under low shear conditions, and low viscosity to ensure flow rate under high shear conditions. This viscometer can monitor the viscosity of fracturing fluid in real time, which is beneficial for ensuring the production of oil and gas wells and improving the fracturing effect.
Production of special polyester new materials: The 150000 tons/year special polyester new material project of Ningbo Juhua Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. adopts the Haimsheng online viscometer. This viscometer can monitor the viscosity characteristics of fluids in real time, providing accurate and reliable data support for production processes, helping enterprises optimize production processes, and ensuring product quality.
