I. The project establishment and construction strictly followed the requirements of provincial and ministerial documents, which is legal and compliant. However, it was not inspected and accepted for 7 years after the completion. There were various reasons from relevant administrative departments, the company, and the external environment. And it was finally completed today, which was worth of celebration as well as mutual understandings.

2. For this hazardous chemical dock transformation project, safety was always a sensitive topic. The project itself was small but significant. Since 50000DWT ships can berth at the dock after the acceptance, Jiangsu Joc Chemical Storage must sort out scientifically and rigorously and improve the system and regulations. More importantly, the company must implement the suggestions promoted by the inspection teams and try to figure out potential problems on this foundation with the principle of safety first.

3. Jiangsu Joc Chemical Storage transformed 50000DWT dock for fuel oil, biodiesel, and other hazardous chemicals. This was a landmark for the improvement of safety level. The company could cooperate with CNOOC in the future and build a long-term and stable brand in Gaogang District together.
