Cui Qifu: "Gold Medal Expert" in Hydrocracking

He has been rooted in the production line for 30 years, put forward more than 100 innovation suggestions, published 6 sets of accident case books, overcome 9 technical problems, and created tens of millions of yuan
.
He has also been awarded the "Liaoning Province May Day Labor Medal", "Liaoning Province High-skilled Talents with Outstanding Contribution", "Liaoning Craftsman" and "National Technical Expert", etc.
, and enjoys the special government allowance
of the State Council.
He is Cui Qifu
, the duty chief of the 1.
3 million tons/year hydrocracking unit of the refining operation department of Liaoyang Petrochemical Company.

The blade of the sword is sharpened

In 1992, Cui Qifu joined Liaoyang Petrochemical as a hydrogenation workshop operator after graduation
.
At that time, the hydrocracking plant was in the preparatory stage, and the company arranged new employees to intern
at Jinling Petrochemical and Yangzi Petrochemical.

When he first arrived at the internship, Cui Qifu was like a clockwork alarm clock, ticking and walking
.
"If you come to the internship after a hard time, you must gain something from the internship
.
" He specially prepared a small book, recorded the operation essentials taught by the masters and the bits and pieces of his own understanding, and then sorted out and digested and absorbed
them after returning to the dormitory.

After the internship, Cui Qifu has mastered the post operation procedures and technological processes, and has become the best among the trainees
.
Within a few years of working, he was promoted from external operator to reaction master
.
In 1996, Cui Qifu became the deputy team leader
.

"The hydrocracking unit process is high temperature and high pressure, the medium is flammable and explosive, and it can only be controlled with excellent operating skills
.
You have to do a good job and be a good worker
.
Cui Qifu always remembered the teachings of the teachers
.

In 2004, PetroChina and Sinopec jointly held the National Petroleum and Petrochemical Industry Vocational Skills Competition, and Cui Qifu participated
on behalf of the company.
During the six months of closed training for the contestants, he attended classes during the day, read hard at night, repeatedly studied the process flow, learned the key points of operation one by one, and was familiar with the process parameters.
.
.

The effort pays off
.
In September of the same year, the National Petroleum and Petrochemical Industry Vocational Skills Competition was held, and the hydrocracking unit technology competition project gathered nearly 100 similar equipment operation masters
across the country.
With his solid foundation and stable play, Cui Qifu won the first place
in hydrocracking operators in one fell swoop.

Service production comes into play

"The maximum pressure of the hydrocracking unit is 16 MPa, and in the hydrogen environment, the work must be more careful and rigorous, and no negligence is allowed
.
" Cui Qifu said
.

Combined with the production characteristics of the device, Cui Qifu summarized the "six-point working method"
.
Cui Qifu said: "After I applied the 'six-point working method' to the team, we have found and successfully dealt with more than 20 emergencies
such as the failure of the high-level level control valve and the leakage and fire of the diesel pump seal over the years.
”

In September 2012, Cui Qifu Skill Master Studio was established
.
He led the members of the studio to improve and optimize 21 operation methods of hydrocracking device, atmospheric pressure reducing device and delayed coking unit, which reduced the yield of atmospheric vacuum residue by 1% and the yield of delayed coking gasoline and diesel by 1.
5%, providing technical support
for the stable and efficient production of oil refining equipment.

In addition, the members of the studio also aimed at the production problems to implement technological innovation, and 6 utility model patents such as the closed discharge collection pipe of the oil refining and chemical plant, and the liquid level anti-blocking device were authorized by the State Intellectual Property Office; Completed the compilation
of several sets of teaching materials such as "Selected Cases of Accidents and Incidents of Atmospheric Pressure Reducing Devices (1995-2012)".
Under the leadership of Cui Qifu, the studio has led the solution of 10 company-level technical problems, 79 enterprise-level technical problems, participated in 48 enterprise-level scientific and technological research projects, and written 80 technical papers
.

From intern to main operator, from class leader to skill expert, Cui Qifu always insists on diligent study and hard study
.
This is also his "winning weapon"
for continuous improvement.

Craftsmanship is scattered and the sky is full of stars

After Cui Qifu served as the leader of the Skill Master Studio, he undertook the task
of employee skills training.
He participated in the compilation of many sets of training materials such as "Inspection Standards for Each Post of Hydrocracking Unit", "80 Questions of Reaction Operation" and "50 Questions of Fractionation Operation", made PPT and video courseware, unreservedly contributed his years of accumulated experience and technology, and used his spare time to train more than 500 employees
.

Cui Qifu organized the compilation of more than 110,000 words and 150 pictures of "Selected Cases of Hydrocracking Unit Accidents", which brings together various accidents and incidents that occurred in two sets of hydrocracking units in Liaoyang Petrochemical from 1995 to 2013, as well as typical accident cases of similar devices at home and abroad, and has become an indispensable training material for employees and a guide
for handling accidents.

Over the years, most of the apprentices brought out by him have become the backbone
of the production technology of hydrocracking units and residual oil hydrogenation units.
His apprentice, Meng Min, a production engineer in the production group of the refining operation department, said, "Master Cui taught me all his money during the process of leading apprentices, and he was a good mentor and friend
on my life path.
”

Cui Qifu said that in order to give full play to the role of the skill master studio in skill inheritance, this year, the company selected six young workers from the refining operation department and sent them to the studio for key training
in the form of mentors and apprentices.
In recent years, 120 young workers have been selected as the key training objects
of the studio.
