Recently, with the successful commissioning of the TG202 gasoline storage tank, the floating dock renovation project at the Yangtianchong oil depot, undertaken by Dagang Oil Construction Company under the Pipeline Bureau Engineering Company of CNPC Engineering, was completed after more than 200 days of hard work The Yangtianchong Oil Storage Facility is a class-1 oil depot with a storage capacity of over 100,000 cubic meters. The purpose of this renovation is to fully comply with the relevant requirements set by the Ministry of Emergency Management; the existing shallow-disk type floating roofs on the oil tanks are being replaced with safer and more advanced stainless-steel full-immersion floating roofs, along with efficient sealing systems. This approach helps to significantly reduce oil evaporation and VOCs emissions, thereby enhancing the safety and environmental performance of the storage tanks and enabling green storage and transportation practices. This renovation requires the upgrading of the key components in 3 gasoline storage tanks with a capacity of 10,000 cubic meters each and 1 tank with a capacity of 5,000 cubic meters, all while the oil depot continues to operate normally. The work involves high risks associated with welding operations, and safety control presents significant challenges. In the face of pressure, the project department developed a \"1+20\" specialized construction plan, refining it through repeated iterations to create a safety management system that covers the entire process. Before starting work, an emergency rescue drill based on real-world scenarios was organized. Five teams were involved in the operation: disaster relief, medical assistance, security and evacuation, communication, and logistics support, ensuring that everything was prepared in advance to avoid any problems.
