[Ten years of development of chemical equipment] 1275-2023 Successfully delivered the first 5500 cubic meter liquid ammonia transport tank

Thread Content

There are currently three main forms of liquid ammonia transportation. The first type is a medium-pressure tank truck suitable for road transportation. The maximum volume can reach 49.82 cubic meters, and the loading capacity of a single vehicle can reach 26 tons. The second type is a liquid ammonia tank suitable for waterway intermodal transport, which can adapt to modern transportation and meet the requirements of highway, railway, and door-to-door multimodal transport. The third type is liquid ammonia ships transported on water. As an important carrier of zero-carbon energy and hydrogen energy storage and transportation, liquid ammonia is expected to continue to grow in production and trade volume. On this basis, the liquid ammonia ship tanks built by CIMC Offshore can not only transport liquid ammonia in practical applications, but also transport energy media such as liquefied petroleum gas and propane, helping the liquid ammonia ship type to become the iconic green ship type of the new generation of zero-carbon transport ships in the future. Recently, Nantong CIMC Pacific Offshore Engineering Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "CIMC Pacific Offshore"), a subsidiary of CIMC Enric, successfully delivered 5,500 cubic meters of liquid ammonia carrier tanks (T135), including two 2,750 cubic meters of liquid ammonia tanks and a 40 cubic meter liquid ammonia deck tank. The successful delivery of this project marks another breakthrough for CIMC Pacific Offshore in new materials and new processes.
