Review and prospect of China shipbuilding industry in 2022

Structural adjustment - high-end ship products and new Marine engineering equipment are concentrated

In 2022, China's shipping enterprises will continue to increase research and development efforts and make new breakthroughs in the development and construction of high-tech ships. The 24,000 TEU container ship with the largest number of containers in the world can be delivered in batches. A number of high-end vessels, including the world's first 300,000-ton LNG dual-fuel power very large crude oil carrier (VLCC), the world's first 209,000 tons Newcastle type LNG dual-fuel power bulk carrier, and China's first 49,900 tons methanol dual-fuel power chemical/refined oil tanker, were delivered to the owner. The world's first 100,000-ton smart fishery large-scale aquaculture ship, the world's first fourth-generation jack-up wind power installation ship, China's largest and most intelligent cylindrical FPSO (floating production, storage and unloading device) and other high-tech, high value-added Marine engineering equipment have been delivered. The first domestically made large cruise ship has achieved a major node of the main power generation motor vehicle project, and the construction of the second domestically made large cruise ship has started smoothly, and China's large cruise ship has entered the era of "two-wheel" construction.

Promoting cooperation - Accelerating the construction of an industrial pattern in which the domestic cycle is the main body and the domestic and international cycles promote each other

In 2022, the China Shipbuilding Industry Association actively promoted the upstream and downstream cooperation of the industrial chain, and jointly organized the ship-steel cooperation coordination meeting with the China Iron and Steel Industry Association, at which the three central enterprise shipbuilding groups and the backbone private shipbuilding enterprises signed 16 long-term procurement agreements with domestic steel enterprises, in order to promote the stable and healthy development of the shipbuilding and steel industries. This lays a good foundation for win-win cooperation. Various forums and seminars were organized around hot issues of concern to the ship finance, new offshore industry, far-reaching Marine aquaculture equipment and other industries, and the communication and coordination of the upstream and downstream industrial chain of the industry was deepened. Strengthen international exchanges and cooperation in the industry, organize the meeting of the Active Shipbuilding Experts Alliance (ASEF), the meeting of shipbuilding experts from China, Europe, South Korea and the United States, and the tripartite meeting of international shipownerships Inspection and shipbuilding, etc., and communicate with international organizations such as the International Association of Classification Societies and the International Organization for Standardization on the development direction of green, low-carbon and intelligent. Strengthen practical exchanges and cooperation with Russia, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Austria, Finland and other countries in the maritime industry, and strive to achieve win-win development.

The bell of 2023 is about to ring, and China's shipbuilding industry will usher in a new chapter. In the New Year, China Shipbuilding Industry Association will continue to do a good job of serving enterprises, serving the industry and serving the government, as always, pay attention to and support the healthy development of China's shipbuilding industry, and continue to make new and greater contributions to accelerate the realization of the great goal of shipbuilding power.
