Implementing the directives of the central government and the requirements of the group company to promote the clean and efficient use of coal: As the largest coal-to-olefins project in the country, this subsidiary has made thorough efforts to study and implement the important speeches delivered by **** during his visits to the Shengli Oil Field and the Yulin coal chemical projects. It has also resolutely followed the group company’s goals of establishing itself as a key player in China’s coal chemical industry. By investing 5.4 billion yuan, it has launched a “green carbon-reduction upgrade project” aimed at advancing the coal chemical industry toward greater sophistication, diversity, lower carbon emissions, and higher efficiency. During the year, projects such as waste heat steam power generation, high-boiling-point vapor recovery, and comprehensive treatment and recovery of carbon dioxide were completed and put into operation. These initiatives aimed at reducing carbon emissions, cutting emissions, and improving efficiency; they enabled the production of over 10,000 tons of methanol per year, generated economic benefits of more than 70 million yuan, and reduced carbon dioxide emissions by 350,000 tons, thus contributing significantly to the green and low-carbon development of the coal chemical industry. 02 Deepen the operation of the HSE management system to continuously improve safety and environmental protection standards. The branch company revised and issued the \"HSE Management System Manual,\" strengthening the systematic approach to management and integrating the HSE management system into all aspects of production, operations, and professional management. Efforts are being made to establish a dual-prevention mechanism for identifying and addressing safety risks, carrying out safety risk assessments as well as regular safety inspections and hazard elimination checks, and promptly revising and improving 35 HSE regulations including the \"8+1\" direct operation management system. Organize the “Safety Production Month” campaign, focusing on a special safety improvement drive aimed at eliminating violations, removing hazards, strengthening management, and ensuring safety. Carry out warning education for all employees, including contractors, strictly supervise direct operation processes, and continuously enhance safety monitoring of contractors. Promote the lawful and compliant management of environmental protection efforts, adhere to the minimum standards for operations, and continue to build a green enterprise. 03 Continuously improving the level of production and operation, with output and efficiency reaching new historical highs. The subsidiary has strengthened refined management and optimized process operations, thereby enhancing the stable operation of coal chemical plants under high loads. The stability rate of process technical indicators reached 99.78%, an increase of 0.07% compared to the previous year; this figure exceeds the annual target of 99.3% as well as Sinopec’s control target of 98%. The qualification rate of polyolefin products was 99.94%, indicating continuous improvements in both process operation levels and product quality. Throughout the year, a total of 4.4026 million tons of MTO-grade methanol were produced, achieving 107.17% of the annual target; 1.4185 million tons of polyolefin products were manufactured, meeting 105.76% of the annual plan. Additionally, 2,423,485.3 million kWh of electricity was generated, representing 109.84% of the annual target ； 497,300 tons of other products were produced. By accurately capturing market information, seizing market opportunities, optimizing logistics solutions, and continuously increasing rail shipping volumes, the ability to generate profits has been significantly enhanced. Throughout the year, a total of 1.4193 million tons of qualified polyolefin products were sold, along with 497,800 tons of other products. All products were manufactured and sold, and the indicators related to efficiency and profitability exceeded expectations as well as those of competitors, resulting in operational results that reached new historical highs. 04 Continuously strengthen equipment management; equipment operation metrics are showing continuous improvement. Efforts are made to ensure the effective operation of the equipment integrity system, with 147 scheduled tasks carried out in full, quantitative evaluation of KPI performance is achieved, and 4,156 preventive maintenance tasks were completed. 1,185 person-times of equipment integrity training were conducted to promote the integration of systems thinking into equipment management. Strengthen special care management, make every effort to address high-risk pumps, enforce strict corrosion prevention measures, and eliminate potential leakage risks. Efforts were made to improve equipment technology; the average operating cycle of the gasification furnace is now 62.33 days, an increase of 3.33 days compared to the previous period. More than 40 difficult issues were resolved, including those related to the low concentration of sulfur dioxide in the flue gas as measured by CEMS. 05 Vigorously promote scientific research and development; the pace of innovation-driven progress continues to accelerate. Nine scientific and technological projects were launched throughout the year, among which \"Development and industrial application of technologies for corrosion protection and material selection of equipment and pipelines in coal-to-methanol syngas plants\" and \"Optimization techniques for large-scale low-temperature towers in coal-based methanol syngas purification systems\" won the third prize for scientific and technological progress from Sinopec. The company’s R&D investment intensity is 0.073%. Throughout the year, 5 new product grades were developed, including LD160, LD607, K1870, K1012, and EGF-35GR. The total output of specialty materials and new products amounted to 679,200 tons, achieving 109.51% of the annual target, as coal-based olefin products continue to move toward higher-end applications.
