At 8:53 a.m. on July 15, the ship \"Baoxing\", which set off from Zhoushan, Zhejiang, successfully arrived at the Gulei Petrochemical Terminal, marking the successful docking of the first vessel at this terminal and kicking off the process of transporting raw materials to the company via sea. It is understood that the vessel “Baoxing” carried 2,300 tons of propylene, providing the necessary raw material for the startup of the company’s steam cracking unit. To ensure the smooth berthing and unloading of the propylene ship and to guarantee that the raw materials needed for production arrive at the company on time, the company held a meeting on the 14th afternoon to coordinate the arrival and unloading of the first shipment of propylene, reviewing and confirming each of the 53 tasks related to this process. Various departments of the company, together with the port company and ship agency, assign their respective responsibilities. In response to temporary issues such as the lack of suitable connectors between the dock and the ship, the Ministry of Commerce actively coordinated with all relevant parties. Overcoming challenges such as tight deadlines and heavy workload, it urgently contacted shipyards to have 200-kilogram reducer connectors manufactured on short notice and delivered to the dock for use, ensuring that the ship arrived at the port at the optimal time and reducing demurrage costs, thus helping the company save money. The company’s first shipload of propylene arrived and was unloaded, establishing a process for transporting raw materials by sea to the facility. From then on, the raw materials needed for the trial operation will be continuously delivered to the plant via pipelines after being unloaded from the ships at the port, thereby providing the necessary foundation for the company to achieve its goal of conducting a successful trial operation on July 28th.
