Thread Content
At around 8 a.m. on July 14, the last kiloton-class equipment for the Guangdong Petrochemical integration project, namely the quad-exchanger of the styrene unit, was transported from the cargo ship at the heavy-load berth of the project’s product terminal, with the help of special transport vehicles, and slowly brought ashore. This was the last kiloton-class equipment to arrive as part of the Guangdong Petrochemical integration project. This also means that all 208 large-scale equipment items that affected the closure work of the utility tunnels for Guangdong Petrochemical’s integrated refining and chemical processing project have arrived, and the project construction has now entered its final phase.
The quad-exchanger of the styrene plant is composed of 4 heat exchangers connected in series, with a length of 56.5 meters, a width of 7.5 meters, a height of 9.1 meters, a cylinder diameter of 6.5 meters, and a net weight of 1650 tons. “The equipment left the port of departure on April 29 and, after a journey of over 70 days, successfully arrived at the product terminal of the Guangdong Petrochemical project; the equipment will now enter the installation phase. ”
On July 18, the last thousand-ton-scale equipment for Sinopec Guangdong Petrochemical’s integrated refining and chemical processing project – the four-stage heat exchanger of the styrene unit – was successfully hoisted into place, marking the successful completion of the installation of large-scale equipment for this project.
The quad-pack heat exchanger lifted this time has a diameter of 6.6 meters, a length of 56.5 meters, and a weight of 1,656 tons. It is the core equipment for the styrene unit in Guangdong Petrochemical’s integrated refining and chemical production project, and it is also the last equipment of a thousand-ton class at Guangdong Petrochemical. At the lifting site, the team in charge of the large-scale equipment lifting project at Guangdong Petrochemical, affiliated with CNPC First Construction Company, used two crawler cranes with capacities of 4,000 tons and 1,600 tons respectively. By employing the \"double-crane direct lifting method\", it took less than two hours to get the equipment into place safely.
