Recently, with assistance from Baosteel, TISCO successfully delivered steel material to the biggest LNG tank project in China. It marks the first delivery coming out of the coordination between production line and market end since TISCO joined China Baowu. The coordination among several steel bases of the steel giant has seen a preliminary achievement in Shanxi province.
In the past years, the LNG industry has become one of the sectors with the biggest surge amid globally sustained consumption growth of natural gas, the green, effective and high quality fuel. With the exponential growth of LNG tanks constructed in China, the demand for 9Ni increases significantly with a bullish market prospect. TISCO technical team therefore made concrete effort in research and exploration in improvement on material purity and product surface quality by optimizing steel making technology and heat treatment processes. The outcome is outstanding: super clean material quality, world leading impact energy index under ultra-low temperature, internationally advanced product performance, a complete set of technical know-how with independent intellectual property rights, and a big push to the upgrade of the manufacturing and quality control in Chinese steel industry on 9Ni, the raw material of ultralow temperature LNG tanks.
It is worth mentioning that, the big order from the biggest project required an urgent shipment, with was beyond TISCO’s own production capability, so TISCO sales team proactively seek cooperation with Baosteel marketing center and its heavy plate sector, with whose sustained help the order was shipped in time. The successful delivery to this China’s biggest LNG tank project is a remarkable reflection and an effective demonstration of China Baowu’s initiative of “build a high quality steel ecosphere together”.
In a different project, TISCO also gave support to Baosteel with 9Ni steel plates, not only easing the latter’s production pressure, but also contributing to the construction of a national key energy project. Coordination between TISCO and Baosteel have been seen in many projects and many fields since TISCO joined China Baowu family. The two support each other, empower to each other, and strengthen their market competiveness together, making “1+1” much bigger than 2.
