China's first ship ballast water management system developed and designed by itself and possessing completely independent intellectual property rights was recently delivered to the shipyard in Guangzhou. This is the first time the system has installed an ocean tanker.
According to reports, the ship's ballast water management system was successfully developed by China Shipbuilding Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. Qingdao Shuangrui Marine Environmental Engineering Co., Ltd. , which was successfully developed with the world. It is the first ballast water management system approved by the International Maritime Organization. In January 2011, the system was approved to install ocean-going vessels and became the first system in the world to be type-approved by China Classification Society. In the technical appraisal organized by the Science and Technology Department of Shandong Province, the appraisal expert group believes that the system is technologically advanced and small in size, and the operating cost is only half of the average index of similar equipment in the world with the system. The overall technology and main indicators are at the international leading level. .
At present, Qingdao Shuangrui has an annual production capacity of 100 units of this system, and has established a relatively complete global after-sales service network. It has signed a large-scale 320,000 tons with many domestic and foreign shipyards and shipowners such as China Shipping Group Corporation. Project contracts for tankers, container ships and bulk carriers have now reached 29 sets of ships, totaling 38 sets of equipment. The installation type covers the main ship types of all ocean-going vessels such as super-large oil tankers, bulk carriers and container ships. The company has become the manufacturer of ship ballast water management system with the most signing, the most complete ship type and the strongest strength in China.
It is understood that the International Maritime Organization adopted the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ballast Water and Sediments in Ships in 2004, which mandates that new ballasts must be installed with ballast water management systems from 2009. By 2017, all ocean-going vessels will not be installed. Equipment shall not enter the ports of the member states of the International Maritime Organization. At present, 31 countries have signed the Convention.
