The three-day 26th China International Petroleum & Petrochemical Technology and Equipment Exhibition (CIPPE 2026) concluded successfully in Beijing on March 28. As a key barometer of the global oil and gas equipment industry, the event brought together nearly 2,000 companies from over 80 countries. Under the theme “AI-Powered Leadership in Deep Earth, Deep Sea & Commercial Aerospace,” Shenkai made a stunning appearance, showcasing its latest innovations in AI applications, deep earth exploration, deep sea development, commercial aerospace, and green hydrogen. The exhibition highlighted the company’s deep expertise and forward-looking vision at the forefront of energy technology.

Focus on Technological Frontiers, Multiple Forums Discuss the Future of the Industry

During the exhibition, Shenkai hosted several technical forums aligned with the industry’s core strategic focus on deep and ultra-deep formations, deepwater, unconventional resources, and mature oilfields. The sessions fostered lively academic discussions and were live-streamed on the “Oil Circle” platform, enabling simultaneous online and offline engagement, with nearly 7,000 views and 27,000 likes.

AI-Powered Special Session: Focusing on the innovative application of artificial intelligence in oil & gas exploration and development, Shenkai showcased its full-scenario AI Intelligent Wellsite solution, covering multi-source data acquisition, integrated geology-engineering collaboration, and AI agent-assisted decision-making. The company also launched its AI digital employee, OpenClaw. Through technological breakthroughs, OpenClaw has been deeply integrated into the DingTalk office ecosystem and seamlessly connected to the Shenkai BlueOcean Intelligent Drilling Optimization Platform, a core business system. Powered by the self-developed SKILL engine, OpenClaw breaks down system silos to enable real-time data interoperability. Users can query well data, trajectory information, and mud properties directly through DingTalk, and the system instantly synthesizes fragmented data to auto-generate professional drilling optimization reports — reducing the process from data retrieval to report generation to just seconds.

Deep Earth & Deep Sea Special Session: This session focused on intelligent solutions for deep earth and deep sea engineering, spotlighting cutting-edge technologies in mud logging and wireline logging, including intelligent liquid level monitoring, intelligent wellsite monitoring, an ultra-short one-trip logging system, and a direct-push dual-mode solution combining long-range detection with electrical imaging. These technologies provide comprehensive support for deep earth exploration and deep sea development, delivering the dual advantages of precise detection and efficient operations.

A Number of Products Make a Stunning Debut, Demonstrating Strong Technological Strength

To address the challenges of 10,000-meter ultra-deep wells and ultra-high pressure reservoirs, Shenkai presented a full suite of core technologies spanning wellhead, well control, mud logging, MWD, and wireline logging. Highlights include the 10,000 psi integral dual-tubing Christmas tree and the F35-140 ultra-high pressure BOP stack, which ensure safety in deep drilling operations; the 3Q08Pro hydrogen flame chromatograph, which delivers complete separation and accurate detection of C1–nC8 components in just 60 seconds, setting an industry benchmark; and an ultra-deep, ultra-high temperature MWD system along with customized high-temperature, high-shock-resistance gamma/azimuth gamma logging solutions designed for extreme conditions, achieving world-class performance. Shenkai also continued to strengthen its position in high-end wireline logging with the launch of several new products, including a highly integrated, cost-effective ultra-short one-trip logging system, an ultra-long temperature and pressure resistant custom-shaped dewar, and the SSMS perforation wellhead monitoring system.

In the deep sea development sector, the 3,000-meter deep-sea work-class ROV co-exhibited by Shenkai and Shandong Future Robot Co., Ltd. drew significant attention from visitors. The two companies plan to further deepen resource synergy and leverage their complementary strengths to establish an integrated service system combining marine high-end equipment with deep sea engineering, creating a full-chain business ecosystem that spans oil & gas extraction to subsea operation and maintenance, thereby supporting the high-quality development of the deep sea energy industry.

In the new energy sector, the hydrogen-powered UAV developed with Hanhydrogen Dynamics enables long-endurance inspection and monitoring of oilfields, while the hydrogen two-wheeler addresses key challenges such as slow charging and battery degradation in shared mobility and consumer e-bikes. In aerospace, the satellite Hall-effect electric propulsion thruster has successfully completed a 100-hour continuous stationary ignition simulation test in a ground vacuum environment. Together, these efforts form a dual-core business focus on hydrogen energy applications and aerospace propulsion, supporting the sustainable development of the energy industry.
