【Major Industrial Equipment in the Chemical Engineering Sector】Large spherical heads for 14,000 M3 LNG carriers from 2014 to 449
Thread Content
On December 22, 2014, the pre-assembly of the large spherical head for Tank No. 2 – the largest LNG carrier in China with a capacity of 14,000 M3, built by Jingmen Hongtu and located in offshore and inland waters – was inspected by representatives of Chinese Classification Society surveyors regarding various technical parameters and quality standards; all parameters met the requirements set by the Chinese Classification Society. It marks the successful completion of the acceptance testing for the pre-assembly of the key component of this project: the large spherical head. This product is Tank No. 2 of the two tanks specified in the contract for the fabrication and installation of storage tanks for 14,000 M3 LNG carriers, which was signed in January this year between Jingmen Hongtu and Qidong Company. It is composed of 72 curved panels, with the maximum length of each panel being 16 meters; the weight of a single tank is 425 tons ； The entire assembly work was completed in just 5 days. It is reported that the domestic construction of waterborne LNG carriers in China is still in its infancy. The company is currently involved in the construction of a 14,000 M3 LNG carrier, which is the first of its kind for domestic feeder LNG transport vessels. It is expected to be delivered and put into operation in the first half of next year, and it is likely to fill the gap in domestic LNG water transport. Taking this as an opportunity, Jingmen Hongtu will continue to demonstrate to the industry the company’s strong growth momentum in the manufacturing of LNG products. At the same time, it will keep exploring integrated solutions for the manufacturing of high-end clean energy equipment and related engineering services, thereby providing customers with one-stop services throughout the entire lifecycle.
It’s tough in the scorching summer heat! Keep up with heat prevention and cooling! Clarify the key tasks! Safety analysis must not be neglected! ---------------------------------------------- The past decade has been a period of rapid development in China’s chemical industry, with the emergence of many new processes, products, and equipment. China’s chemical processing equipment has also seen significant progress, 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 greater use of domestic equipment.

It’s on a grand scale; thanks to the original poster for sharing it
Thank you for sharing. Such extensive knowledge – learn more about equipment knowledge: lol
The highlight of this device is its pre-assemblage in the factory, which prevents problems from being discovered only on-site
