As Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding Group's deputy secretary of the party committee and general manager Chen Jun issued a welding start order, the first onshore LNG (liquefied natural gas) film tank project in China that has attracted much attention in the industry - Huagang Gas Group Hebei Hejian LNG peak shaving The "first tank first film" ceremony of the reserve project was successfully held. The core construction task of the project is undertaken by China Shipbuilding Hudong-Zhonghua, which is a milestone in the comprehensive and high-quality development of Hudong-Zhonghua LNG industry chain "from sea to land".
After the completion of the project, while improving the clean energy supply capacity, it will play an active role in optimizing the overall layout of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei natural gas reserve and ensuring the living gas consumption of the people in the northern region, and will better serve the country's green and low-carbon transformation and help the country Implementation of the "Double Carbon" strategic goal. The project is undertaken by the North China Branch of China Petroleum Engineering and Construction Co., Ltd. as the EPC general contractor, and a consortium composed of Hudong Zhonghua Shipbuilding (Group) Co., Ltd., Shanghai Haiwest Thermal Insulation Engineering Co., Ltd., and Shenyang Industrial Installation Engineering Co., Ltd. is responsible for the project. For the construction of the film tank at each stage, the French GTT company provides patent authorization.
General Manager Chen Jun delivered a speech at the ceremony, saying that the extraordinary significance of this project lies in exploration and innovation, which will lay the foundation for the subsequent construction of larger capacity, lower cost and higher standard storage tank projects. Under the orderly organization of the owner Huagang Gas Group and the general contractor China Petroleum Engineering Construction Co., Ltd. North China Branch, all parties involved in the construction cooperated sincerely, and the project was carried out in an all-round way in terms of business model, organizational structure, management method, process method, etc. Innovated and achieved excellent results, successfully completed the construction of the moisture-proof layer and most of the insulation layer, and entered the film installation stage. The construction of the project has achieved a remarkable stage victory. Hudong Zhonghua will continue to work closely with all parties to move forward to the milestone of delivery and production of China's LNG storage tank construction.
The project was signed on August 11, 2020. After more than a year of hard work by all parties involved in the project, the construction of this 29,000m³ LNG membrane-type storage tank is progressing in a safe and orderly manner. The first membrane installation marks that the shore tank has become the current domestic construction progress. The fastest and most successful project in the transformation of technological achievements. As a new type of storage tank, nearly 100 land-based LNG film tanks have been built around the world. But for China, the application of land membrane technology is still blank.
Compared with the common 9% nickel steel full-capacity storage tank, the design of the film tank is more compact, and it has higher advantages in improving safety and stability, increasing the effective tank capacity, reducing the unilateral cost, shortening the construction period, and saving energy and reducing consumption. Hudong-Zhonghua is an international leader in the manufacture of LNG storage and transportation equipment, and the only company capable of simultaneously building No. 96. Shipping companies of MARK III two types of LNG membrane tanks. Under the leadership of China Shipbuilding Corporation's high-quality development strategy, Hudong-Zhonghua has continuously strengthened the development of the entire LNG industry chain, including extending the Mark III containment system technology from sea to land. The company has organized the most capable forces, applied the most advanced technology, implemented the strictest engineering management, and dispatched a construction team of more than 130 people to fight on the project site, implement first-class quality standards, and sincerely cooperate with all parties to gradually drive large-scale LNG through this project. The thin-film storage tank technology is pushed further in China. More than 40 guests from China Industrial Gas Association, Huagang Gas Group, Xintian Green Caofeidian LNG Company, Lianyungang Traffic Control Logistics Group, French GTT Company, and various engineering construction companies including Hudong Zhonghua attended the event and observed on-site.
