On November 18, the mechanical completion ceremony and the launch ceremony for the \"three inspections and four determinations\" process were held for Phase 1 of the vertical storage tanks in the refining and chemical tank areas of the Huajin Project, which is under the EPC general contracting of Global East China Company. This event marked another important milestone in the project, as it entered a new phase of construction completion through these \"three inspections and four determinations\" steps. It also signified that all three EPC contract phases of the Huajin Project undertaken by Global East China Company had achieved their mechanical completion targets. The first phase of the Jinamei Refining Tank Farm project features storage tanks with a maximum capacity of 30,000 cubic meters each; there are 52 such vertical storage tanks in total, giving an overall capacity of 828,000 cubic meters. This is the first external storage tank project to be undertaken under EPC contracting by Huanyu East China Company, and it is also the largest tank project handled under EPC contracting to date. Since the project began, the Huajin project team has always taken \"safety, quality, progress, and efficiency\" as its core objectives. It has overcome challenges such as the complex geological conditions in the Liaodong Bay area of Panjin, frequent extreme weather, overlapping construction activities, and major additional changes, by implementing integrated management of design, procurement, and construction. All participants returned to their hometowns, regarded the project as their home, and persisted in upholding the excellent work ethic of striving hard and fearing no difficulties, thus successfully completing the milestones set for the completion of the machinery installation. Thanks to the relentless efforts of all the participating units, and after 19 months of continuous hard work, the Project for Section 1 of the refinery tank farm was completed according to the planned construction goals. As the largest EPC turnkey project outside the company’s usual scope of work undertaken by Huayu East China Company, the Huajin project saw the company competing alongside numerous other contractors on this large-scale platform. Construction safety and quality were maintained under strict control, and the project progress was consistently ahead of schedule. The team achieved excellent results in various competition events organized by the client, demonstrating the Daqing Spirit and the Iron Man Spirit of the people from East China Petroleum – traits characterized by a willingness to face challenges and take on tough tasks – which earned them high recognition and praise from the client.
