Strengthening marine foundation with the pillars of China and equipment support

On August 22, the wind power installation platform modified by CIMC Raffles for China Energy Engineering Group Jiangsu No. 3 Electric Power Construction Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Boqiang Heavy Industry Group Co., Ltd. was delivered and left at Yantai Base Wharf. This is the third offshore wind power renovation project of CIMC Raffles, marking a substantial breakthrough for the company to move from "oil and gas industry" to "green new energy industry".

The ocean accounts for 71% of the earth's surface, and human understanding and development of the ocean is only in its infancy. Rich resources, infinite kinetic energy, rich and dangerous deep blue sea area, is the competition ground for high-tech equipment. Pillar equipment of China such as "Bluewhale I" and "Bluewhale II" have come out one after another, making China among the first echelon in the global deepwater marine equipment field, and enabling its capacity of deepwater oil and gas exploration and development to join the advanced level in the world.

At present, the scale of Shandong marine equipment manufacturing industry is heading towards the hundred billion yuan tier. The northern headquarters of China Offshore Engineering Group is located in Yantai, which is now under construction; CIMC Group and Guofeng Group launched a strategic cooperation to set up Yantai Deep Sea Marine Technology Group ... Marine equipment is not only the representative of marine strategic emerging industries, but also provides basic support for other emerging marine fields, such as marine pastures, desalination, marine chemical industry, deep-sea exploration and so on.

In the urgent need for the development of strategic emerging marine industries, Shandong uphold the open-mindedness of the marine economy, and actively introduce equipment capacity support.
