On July 7, it was reported that Daqing Refining & Chemical Company shipped a total of 129,100 tons of marine fuel oil in the first half of the year—a year-on-year increase of 22.6% and a record high for the period.
"We keep a close eye on market trends and fluctuations in raw material properties, focusing our efforts on precision control," said Lang Jiajun, a process engineer in the Production Technology Group of the Storage and Transportation Department. Adhering to a market-oriented and efficiency-centered approach, the company deepened dynamic analysis of key indicators and precisely adjusted the blending ratios of component oils, achieving a 100% success rate for on-spec blending on the first attempt across major production units. Notably, the product's sulfur content was consistently controlled below 0.3%, far surpassing the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) 0.5% sulfur limit for marine fuel.
Leveraging scientific production coordination and rigorous quality control, the company has maintained steady marine fuel output and strong growth momentum in both production and sales. Since March, monthly shipments have grown by over 60% month-on-month, continuously enhancing delivery capabilities.
Faced with rising output and an increased loading workload, the company precisely coordinated on-site operations and optimized team staffing. Dedicated process and equipment management personnel were assigned to oversee production process control and equipment maintenance, thereby solidifying the foundation for safety. By efficiently allocating vehicles and reducing loading times, the company streamlined the entire process—from oil transfer to loading and shipment—ensuring the safe and smooth dispatch of marine fuel products and continuously empowering the company's high-quality development.
