Recent data shows that China's export volume of transformer oil has reached a new high, demonstrating the increasing competitiveness of domestic transformer oil in the international market. The achievement of this result is due to the unremitting efforts of domestic enterprises in technological innovation, and the continuous improvement of product quality and performance.

Karamay Petrochemical Company is a typical case. In 2023, the company will closely cooperate with China Petroleum Lubricants Company, keenly seize market opportunities in photovoltaic and new energy projects, actively expand sales channels for transformer oil, and achieve a year-on-year increase of 30% in total sales volume. At the same time, by accurately grasping the market timing, the transformer oil market in neighboring Asian countries has been successfully developed, and the export volume has doubled.

The new transformer oil developed by some domestic enterprises has reached or even surpassed the international level of similar products in key indicators such as oxidation stability and electrical insulation performance, and has successfully entered high-end markets such as Europe, America, and Southeast Asia. For example, the Kunlun series transformer oil of PetroChina is made by blending moderately refined cyclohexane base oil with antioxidant additives, which has excellent heat transfer, oxidation stability, solubility, and electrical properties. Among them, KI50GX, KI50X and other brand products are suitable for high-end electrical equipment such as ultra-high voltage AC/DC transformers.

With the deepening of the "the Belt and Road" initiative, the cooperation between China and countries along the Belt and Road in the field of power has been deepening. Numerous power infrastructure construction projects have landed one after another, creating more opportunities for China's transformer oil exports. In the process of infrastructure construction cooperation, Chinese enterprises have gradually established a good reputation in the international market with their technological advantages and reliable product quality, further consolidating their position in the field of transformer oil exports.
