The Ministry proposes to speed up the popularization and application of high performance steel for ship and marine engineering equipment
The ocean, equipment first; build tool, with good steel. In September 18th, the Ministry of industry and informationtechnology of ship and ocean engineering equipment with the popularization and application of high performance steel coordination group in Jiangsu Nanjing held the first meeting. Deputy director general, the raw material Department ofMinistry of industry coordination team leader Luo Tiejun, deputyinspector of the equipment industry, the coordination group deputy leader Cao Gang attended the meeting and made a speech. Industry Association, China shipbuilding industry of China Steel Industry Association, China Shipowners Association and the China Classification Society and the domestic shipbuilding enterprises, the backbone of the iron and steel enterprises, shipping companies and offshore oilexploitation enterprises and related scientific research units of therepresentatives attending the meeting.Luo Tiejun in his speech pointed out that the establishment of thecoordination group, to strengthen coordination and cooperation between the government, associations, through the production of iron and steel enterprises, ship and marine engineering equipment manufacturingenterprises, establish the upstream and downstream industry jointparticipation, set "application mechanisms for inspection" in one of theship and marine equipment, promote the use of steel varieties ofupgrading and industrialization. The coordination group will establish a regular consultation system, reporting the progress of work and the important information, research on major issues and programme of work,the establishment of the formation mechanism of development and pricepush related design and construction specifications, standards, and standardize the order of competition, and guide the rational division of labor, the realization of benefit sharing, cooperation and win-win.
Cao Gang in his speech pointed out that at present, Chinas steel industry and ship and marine equipment industry in the face of fiercecomplex international competition, the urgent need to open up the industry chain, the composition of the group army. He asked the member units to strengthen information communication, to determine the specifictarget in the next step work as soon as possible, and constantly promote the popularization and application of high performance steel.
Delegates introduced the basic situation of each unit of R & D,production and application of high performance steel. According to the introduction, in recent years, the backbone of the iron and steelenterprises in China have increased R & D efforts to use steel ship and marine equipment, high strength steel, offshore platform pile leg in offshore platform tolerance to low temperature liquefied natural gas(LNG) steel, steel, crude oil ship corrosion resistant steel, ultra largecontainer ships stop progress the degree of crack steel has achievedhigh performance steel developed by boat, but there is little application in ship performance. The deputies, the government departments shouldstrengthen coordination based on cross industry organization, according to the national development of marine economy and construction ofmaritime power strategy, formulated the relevant preferential policies,encourage and support the shipping companies and marine engineering project owners actively attempt, bold application of high performancesteel, so as to improve the application of ship and marine equipmentindustry high the performance of steel enthusiasm and sense of innovation, to speed up the implementation of the iron and steel,shipbuilding and other industries transformation and development.
