The first session of the 140th Canton Fair has come to a close, yet the buzz at the booth of Shandong Kehuan Petroleum Equipment Co., Ltd. has not diminished in the slightest—overseas business partners met during the exhibition have begun making special trips to Liaocheng, the “Water City of Jiangbei,” to visit production workshops for on-site inspections, seek cooperation opportunities, and deepen their mutual rapport; a two-way process of “making connections at the exhibition and building deeper understanding at the factory” is now unfolding. During the first session of this year’s Canton Fair, the company’s foreign trade team made a striking appearance with samples of oil casing, oil pipes, seamless steel pipes, pipeline pipes, large-diameter pipe expansion products, and deep-processing steel pipe products, along with overseas project case studies and comprehensive quality inspection documentation. They successively received buyers and EPC contractors from dozens of countries and regions across the Middle East, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, Europe, and the United States. Technical personnel engaged in face-to-face discussions with clients, provided selection solutions tailored to complex operating conditions such as ultra-deep wells, high temperature and high pressure, and severe corrosion, and secured cooperation agreements on-site—many of which involved new partners collaborating for the first time. Numerous visitors remarked on the spot: “We must visit the factory and see it for ourselves.“
As soon as the exhibition concluded, this commitment was promptly put into practice. Over the past few days, multiple batches of foreign clients visited the company one after another. From the inspection of raw materials upon arrival at the facility, through hot rolling, heat treatment, pipe expansion, wire drawing, and nondestructive testing, to the final re-inspection of finished products before shipment, the clients conducted on-site inspections of the company’s end-to-end quality control system and spoke highly of its modernized production front lines and its standardized, orderly on-site management. One client remarked candidly: “What you see at an exhibition are products; what you see at a factory is strength.” During the inspection period, several clients engaged in in-depth discussions with the company regarding long-term framework cooperation and customized supply solutions; some orders have already entered the contract-signing stage.
The company’s trust stems from a decade of consistent and deep-rooted commitment to the industrial sector. Located in Liaocheng, the beautiful “Water City” of Jiangbei, the company has evolved over more than ten years into a large-scale comprehensive enterprise integrating seamless steel pipe production, steel pipe sales and deep processing, large-diameter pipe expansion, heat treatment processing, steel import and export, flange deep processing, and warehousing and logistics. With a total investment of approximately 2 billion yuan, the group occupies 800 mu of land and employs over 700 staff, including 36 nationally authoritative senior engineers and 80 technical personnel. It operates four of the country’s most advanced hot-rolling production lines, producing pipes with outer diameters ranging from 38 mm to 560 mm and wall thicknesses from 6 mm to 130 mm, as well as eight pipe-expansion production lines producing pipes with outer diameters from 325 mm to 1,200 mm. The company has an annual output of 1 million tons of seamless steel pipes, a constant inventory of 100,000 tons, and an annual round-steel trading volume of 600,000 tons, generating an output value of approximately 6 billion yuan, thereby firmly securing its position as the leader in the steel pipe manufacturing industry within the province. Behind this strong financial foundation lies a long-term commitment to quality and innovation. The company has been recognized with multiple national and provincial authoritative certifications, including two High-Tech Enterprise designations, a provincial “Single Champion” in manufacturing, two “Specialized, Refined, Unique, and Innovative” enterprise designations, and a “Green Factory” certification; it has also been honored as a 3A-level credit enterprise, a Shandong Province “Gazelle Enterprise,” and a “Compassionate Enterprise for Persons with Disabilities,” and has established a key laboratory. The Group holds 32 invention and utility model patents; it has obtained API 5L and API 5CT certifications from the American Petroleum Institute, CE certification from the European Union, certifications from multiple international classification societies, and triple-system certifications under ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001.
