On July 30, the system supporting works (II) (including propylene tank farm & pump shelter, and LPG tank farm & pump shelter) of Relocation and Modification Petrochemical Project in Beihai Oil Refinery, which is undertaken by SNEI Storage Tank Engineering Subsidiary, successfully passed the acceptance of interim handover. It is another interim handover works of Beihai project after the interim handover of the intermediate feedstock tank farm works (II) achieved at a high standard.
The spherical tank farm mainly includes 3 propylene spheres with the capacity of 2,000m3, one sphere with the capacity of 1,000m3, and 7 liquefied petroleum gas spheres with the capacity of 3,000m3. The works covers civil engineering of sphere foundation, installation of spheres, motors and pumps, erection of steel structure and pump shelter, and the installation of process pipelines, firefighting, electrical equipment instruments and etc.
Since the official construction kicked off by the civil engineering discipline in May 2010, we have safely and smoothly completed all construction tasks with high efficiency and high quality by overcoming difficulties and hardness in a serious manner and facing with the severe environment of high temperature and much rainfall in Beihai city, and have received praises from the owners or supervision company for several times because we set being a responsible contractor as our focus.
Assembly and installation of TK-001 sphere in the propylene tank farm, erection of scaffolds used in assembly welding of the sphere, erection of windbreak tent applicable for assembly welding of the sphere, foundation of TK-007 in the LPG tank farm and movable welding rods distribution station all have been awarded as sample projects by the owners. The smooth interim handover of the sphere tank farm is another shining point of Beihai project, and it also establishes another landmark flag for the sphere construction of SNEI to reach the first-class level in China.
