[This report news]2015Year1Month8Morning10Hour18Minute, in the harbor of Changhong International Recycling Co., Ltd., the drilling platform703(SEDCO 703) was successfully dismantled, and the remaining parts will be completed within30working days.

It is reported thatSEDCO 703the semi-submersible oil drilling platform registered in Liberia arrived at the port on2014Year12Month27The platform has a light weight of12697.24tons, but a total height of96meters, with the derrick part alone reaching56.39meters. This far exceeds the maximum lifting height of our gantry crane and floating crane, making conventional dismantling methods impossible. How to safely and smoothly dismantle the derrick part was a major challenge faced by the construction team. Therefore, after joint research by the technical backbone of the dismantling team, the person in charge of the dismantling unit, the safety and environmental protection department, the supervision company, and other relevant personnel, it was finally decided to dismantle it in a manner similar to tree felling: connecting a high-power winch with steel wire rope at the top of the derrick, then cutting off the bottom part of the derrick, and finally using the winch to pull it down. Once the plan was confirmed, all departments immediately arranged preliminary work,such as clearing obstacles, marking warning areas, etc. After all work preparations were ready, the Changhong3tugboat slowly moved, and the drilling platform was gradually laid down. The entire process was safe and rigorous, with no unexpected incidents. Afterwards, this work received high recognition from the shipowner, fully reflecting our company's green ship dismantling capabilities.

In summary, it is under the guidance of the Yangtze spirit of 'only thinking of ways to succeed, not looking for reasons for failure' that our various works have achieved today's results. Our ship dismantling business has evolved from nothing to something, from weak to strong, and now has become a leader in green ship dismantling in the world, all of which is inseparable from this spirit. We also firmly believe that under the guidance of this Yangtze spirit, the company will achieve even more brilliant results and welcome a better tomorrow!
