High-tech ship development

I. Development ideas and key directions of China's Marine engineering equipment and high-tech ships in the next ten years

In the next ten years, China's shipbuilding industry should closely focus on the strategy of maritime power and the grand goal of building a world shipbuilding power, give full play to the role of market mechanisms, comply with the new trend of world shipbuilding competition and shipbuilding science and technology development, strengthen innovation drive, and take structural adjustment, transformation and upgrading as the main line. The main direction is to make Marine engineering equipment and high-tech ship products and their supporting equipment independent and branded, and to promote digital, networked and intelligent manufacturing as a breakthrough, and constantly improve the level, quality and efficiency of industrial development. Strive to become the world's leading country in Marine engineering equipment and high-tech ships by 2025, and realize the qualitative leap from large to strong shipbuilding industry.

"Made in China 2025" clearly states that the field of ocean engineering equipment and high-tech ships will vigorously develop deep-sea exploration, resource development and utilization, offshore operation support equipment and its key systems and special equipment. Promote the development and engineering of deep-sea space stations and large floating structures. The ability to comprehensively test, test and appraise Marine engineering equipment will be formed, and the level of Marine development and utilization will be improved. We will break through the design and construction technology of luxury cruise ships, comprehensively enhance the international competitiveness of high-tech ships such as liquefied natural gas, and master the integrated, intelligent and modular design and construction technology of key supporting equipment.

According to the stage of industrial development, development basis and conditions, the development direction and focus of Marine engineering equipment and high-tech ships in the next decade are mainly in the following aspects:

(1) Marine resources development equipment

Marine resources include Marine oil and gas resources, mineral resources, Marine biological resources, Marine chemical resources, Marine energy, Marine space resources and so on. Marine resources development equipment is all kinds of Marine resources exploration, mining, storage, processing and other equipment.

1. Deep-sea exploration equipment. Focus on the development of deep-sea geophysical exploration ships, engineering survey ships and other surface Marine resources exploration equipment; Vigorously develop manned deep-sea submersibles, unmanned submersibles and other underwater exploration equipment; Promote the research and industrialization of ocean observation networks and technologies and ocean sensing technologies.

2. Offshore oil and gas resources development equipment. Focus on improving the technical capabilities of mainstream equipment such as jack-up drilling platforms, semi-submersible drilling platforms, semi-submersible production platforms, semi-submersible support platforms, drilling ships, floating production storage and unloading devices (FPSO), and accelerate the pace of technological upgrading; Vigorously develop the research and development level of new equipment such as liquefied natural gas floating production, storage and unloading unit (LNG-FPSO), deep draft column platform (SPAR), tension leg platform (TLP), floating drilling production, storage and unloading unit (FDPSO), and form industrialization capacity.

3. Other Marine resources development equipment. Focusing on the future needs of Marine resources development, we will carry out forward-looking research on new Marine resources development equipment such as seabed metal mineral exploration and development equipment, natural gas hydrate and other mining equipment, wave energy/tidal current energy and other Marine renewable energy development equipment, so as to form technical reserves.

4. Marine operation support equipment. It will focus on the development of auxiliary and construction equipment for offshore engineering such as semi-submersible transport vessels, lifting pipe-laying vessels, windmill installation vessels, multi-purpose working vessels, and platform supply vessels, and accelerate the development and application of deep-sea underwater emergency operation equipment and systems.

(2) Equipment for the exploitation of Marine space resources

Marine space resources refers to the general term of the geographical areas of the sea, sea and seabed that are related to the development and utilization of the ocean. Equipment for the comprehensive utilization of sea surface, sea and submarine space can be collectively referred to as Marine space resources development equipment.

1. Deep-sea space Station. Breaking through the key technologies of ultra-deep diving operation and residential deep-sea space station, it has basic functions such as manned autonomous navigation, long-term self-sufficiency and underwater energy relay, can integrate several special modules (Marine resource detection module, underwater drilling module, platform underwater installation module, underwater detection/maintenance/repair module), and carry various types of underwater operation equipment. Carry out deep-sea exploration and resource exploitation operations.
