Ensuring Stable Operations Under Extreme Conditions: A Turnaround Case at Maysan NGP, Iraq

release time：2026-04-20 16:32:36

In 2026, escalating tensions in the Middle East pushed the region to the brink.

While the world watched oil prices fluctuate, 16 Chinese engineers remained on site at the Maysan oilfield in Iraq.
Facing temperatures near 60°C, high-pressure reservoirs, and complex conditions, the situation worsened as conflict cut off external support. At the same time, Ramadan significantly reduced local workforce availability—right in the middle of a critical maintenance window.

Delay was not an option.
Instead of waiting, the team moved forward.
With a fully self-reliant approach, Sichuan Jade Oil & Gas team completed 135 critical maintenance tasks under extreme constraints—eliminating operational risks and ensuring a smooth restart of the system.
Energy security is not only about production figures.
It is defined by those who step up in uncertainty—and deliver when it matters most.
