Chapter 135 Liquefied Gas Ship Order


At the end of October, Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group won a valuable opportunity, a company in Mingzhu, and a company in the United States will send people to Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group for inspection, what does this mean?

Mingzhu has two orders for 2,000 cubic meters of liquefied gas ships, and the United States has orders for five 22,000 cubic meters of liquefied gas ships.

In order to take over these two high value-added orders, Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group is mobilizing up and down, ready to welcome customers from Mingzhu and Miguo.

You must know that the profit of liquefied gas carriers is much higher than that of bulk carriers!

In terms of unit price, the unit price of a 22,000 cubic meter liquefied gas carrier is between 40 million and 50 million US dollars, and the unit price of a 2,000 cubic meter liquefied gas ship is between 6 million and 8 million US dollars.

In the product catalog of Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group, the most expensive is the 22,000 cubic meter liquefied gas carrier, which is several million US dollars more expensive than the 70,000-ton self-unloading bulk carrier that ranks second, and more than 15 million US dollars more expensive than the 73,000-ton Panamax bulk carrier.

The 22,000 cubic meter liquefied gas carrier, with a deadweight of only more than 20,000 tons, is so much more expensive than the Panamax bulk carrier with a deadweight of 73,000 tons, and of course its technical difficulty is much higher.

Even the smallest 2,000 cubic meter liquefied gas carrier, although the deadweight tonnage is only 1,600 tons, its profit is not to be underestimated.

Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group has not received orders for high value-added liquefied gas carriers for several years, so the leaders of the group attach great importance to it and require the whole company to prepare for customer inspections and be sure to win these two large orders.

Now the Asian financial crisis has gradually spread, has had a negative impact on the whole world's economy, for the shipbuilding industry, the major shipyards have felt the crisis, because the attitude of shipowners has begun to change, from time to time there are some new requirements, sometimes purely to reduce prices.

Of course, the situation of delaying the acceptance of ships has also begun to appear, so for Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group, if it can win these two high value-added orders, it will be very important for the group's operation and development in the next few years.

And these products are settled in US dollars, which is a very honorable thing to earn foreign exchange for the country's exports.

After the Eighth Five-Year Plan technical transformation, the annual shipbuilding capacity of Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group has increased from 220,000 tons to 320,000 tons, and now the No. 3 dock is still being transformed, and once the transformation is completed, it can reach a production capacity of 500,000 tons.

With the expansion of production capacity, it is necessary to receive more orders, otherwise how to repay the bank loan of hundreds of millions of yuan invested in transformation?

Of course, since the beginning of 97 years, the strategic development goal of Jiangnan Shipbuilding Group is to move towards high value-added ships, that is, to undertake high value-added ships such as liquefied gas carriers as much as possible, and for the original main product bulk carriers, it will be received as little as possible, because now to receive orders from ordinary bulk carriers, there may even be not only not profits, but also possible losses.

As for military products, in recent years, a Type 052 destroyer of more than 4,000 tons has been built, as well as a new conventional submarine that has just started construction.

Due to the lack of funds and slow development of the navy in recent years, shipyards have no orders for military products.

Therefore, the output value and profit of Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group mainly depend on civilian products, which everyone knows very well.

Only Shen Huan knew that Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group must be fully prepared, because it will not be many years before the navy's ship-building dynasty will come.

Even because of Shen Huan's rebirth, the arrival of the Gao Dynasty may be advanced.

This is also one of the reasons why Shen Huan proposed to engage in a pulsating production line, because the current shipbuilding model, the production efficiency is too low, if the pulsating production line is realized, then with the current Jiangnan Changxing shipbuilding production capacity, it can be at least doubled, that is, 320,000 tons to 640,000 tons.

These are all later words, and now Shen Huan's shipbuilding division is preparing to meet customers up and down.

Because the shipbuilding division is the main body of Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group, it actually retains the brand of Jiangnan Changxing Shipyard and the brand of state-owned 436 Shipyard.

After undertaking the order of liquefied gas carriers, the construction of liquefied gas ships has to cooperate with the group's listed company Jiangnan Changxing Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., which has just been listed for a few months, is restructured from the steel structure mechanical engineering division, and the liquefied gas tank on the liquefied gas ship will be built by the original steel machinery division, the current Jiangnan Changxing Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., and the shipbuilding division is mainly responsible for the hull part.

Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group Administrative Complex, General Manager's Office, Feng Haibo is reviewing the meeting documents formed by the team, one of which is about the establishment of Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group pulsating ship production line technical research group, at the team meeting, fully discussed the feasibility of this technology, the team members unanimously approved, as soon as possible to set up a pulsating ship production line technology research team, by the chief engineer Fu Jianshe personally commanded as the team leader, by the technical center and shipbuilding division of several deputy as the deputy leader, Shen Huan served as the chief expert, and the technology center and the craft room dispatched elite soldiers to serve as team members.

Feng Haibo had just finished the trial when the secretary Zhou Hong came in.

"Boss, I just received a fax from Mingzhude Shipping Company, and Ms.

Jiang Baozhu, the general manager of their company, led a delegation to visit our company, and the date is set for the 30th of this month."

Feng Haibo's heart trembled, is it coming?

This order must be next, Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding has not received an order for liquefied gas ships for several years.

Although the company only needs two 2,000 cubic meter liquefied gas carriers, and the total price is only more than 10 million US dollars, this is very important to Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group.

This is an opportunity to open up the situation, although the total price is only more than 10 million US dollars, but if it is done well, the profit will also be two or three million US dollars, and the bulk carrier will not be able to do it, even if it is an order for five 70,000-ton bulk carriers, Feng Haibo will not change it.

If this order is followed, then the order for five 22,000 cubic meter liquefied gas carriers in the United States will definitely be in the bag.

As soon as I thought of taking down that big order, Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group would not have to worry about not making money in the past two years.

Feng Haibo was happy in his heart, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Zhou Hong smiled when he saw the boss, and hurriedly said: "Boss, you look very happy, are you already sure of the next order!"
