Reply reward! ---------------------------------------------- The past decade has been a period of rapid development in China’s chemical industry, marked by the emergence of many new processes, products, and equipment. There has also been significant progress in China’s chemical processing equipment, which has contributed to the swift advancement of the petrochemical sector. Here, we have compiled some of the achievements and breakthroughs made by Chinese equipment manufacturers in terms of larger-scale production and increased use of domestic equipment. We invite everyone to share their insights and engage in discussions, to cheer for Made in China and to support the development of chemical processing equipment! =====================
On March 24, the regasification module project for Qidong COSCO Marine Engineering M010 was delivered. This is the fourth regasification module successfully delivered to a Norwegian oil and gas company by Qidong COSCO Offshore after it entered the modular market, and it is also the seventh modular project. Representatives from ABS, Wartsila’s on-site representative, and relevant members of the project team attended the delivery ceremony. Project M010 is a key module project undertaken by the company. The regasification module is a core component of an FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit), and its main function is to regasify natural gas at low temperatures. The natural climate in the location where the facility operates is extremely harsh. The regasification process requires continuous seawater circulation and heat exchange in order to convert liquid natural gas at -165°C back into gas. Therefore, the main materials used in this project are stainless steel, and the construction techniques required for various tasks are extremely strict; the quality standards applied are among the highest in the industry. The M010 regasification module project includes three columns of LNG regasification units, two regasification modules, and one buffer tank skid, with a total weight of 730 tons. The successful construction and delivery of the series of modular projects by the Norwegian oil and gas company are of great significance for Qidong COSCO Marine’s modular construction team in terms of improving its capabilities and expanding its market presence in this sector. The M011/012 projects for this series of regasification modules, which are under construction by the company during the same period, are progressing steadily as planned.
On January 10, the regasification module project for COSCO Marine Engineering M020 in Qidong was successfully delivered. Representatives from DNVGL, the shipowner, and project team members attended the delivery ceremony
The regasification module is a core component of an FSRU (Floating Liquefied Natural Gas Storage and Regasification Unit). Its main function is to heat the LNG in liquid form at -162°C using a heat source, convert it into gas, and transport it outward. The M020 regasification module project includes four columns of LNG regasification units, with a total weight of 423 tons.
