The construction of another main project of Baosteel Zhanjiang Iron and Steel Plant has begun. On September 3rd, in the Zhanjiang Iron and Steel Manufacturing Base, located at the Donghai island of Zhanjiang City, Mr. Zhao Zhouli, the Vice General Manager of Baosteel Group, the Board Chairperson of Baosteel Zhanjiang Iron & Steel Co., Ltd., the Project General Director of Project of Baosteel Zhanjiang Iron & Steel Plant declared: "the Project of 2030 Cold Rolling Workshop of Zhanjiang Iron & Steel Plant now is beginning". More than 100 persons, including Mr. Dai Zhihao, the General Manager of Baoshan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd, the other leaders from various companies concerned and the employee representatives, had attended the groundbreaking ceremony, they are the leaders of administration & management of Zhanjiang Iron and Steel Co., Ltd, the leaders from functional department of Baosteel Iron & Steel Co., Ltd, the engineering company, the construction companies, the department of equipment purcurement, and construction supervision company, .
The technologies accumulated by Baosteel over the past 3 decades will be fully used in the Project of 2030 Cold Rolling line of Zhanjiang Iron & Steel Plant; Based on the construction experience concluded from the previous projects, Baosteel implement the construction by adopting engineering and integration independently, by doing so, it changes the past working model in which mainly imports the foreign equipment. However, except mill machines, annealing furnaces and a few key electromechanical production equipment are to be imported, the other equipment are to be adopted by those made in China for this project.
It is reported that Baosteel Engineering would be in charge of overall engineering for the project, Baosight would be responsible for EIC, and MCC5 and MCC Baosteel would undertake the construction together. It is schedule to complete the of project of 2030 pickling line and put it into production by the end of May, 2016. Moreover, it is planned to complete continuous annealing and hot galvanizing machine unit and put it into operation by the end of September, 2016. At that time, the project will become a world-class cold-rolling plate plant which produces defect-free plate by using less manpower.
Baosteel Zhanjiang Iron & Steel expressed that they would be to carry forward the spirit of 85?9, to strengthen coordination and communication among the engineering company, the construction companies, the departments of equipment, the construction supervision; To enhance the project management by keeping the strict demands, and to overcome all difficulties, by doing so, it guarantees that the project can be completed and put into production as scheduled; in turn, they are determined to build Project of 2030 Cold Rolling Line of Zhanjiang Iron & Steel Plant into one of the world first-class fine metal production base. In addition, MCC5, MCC Baosteel and Baosteel Engineering said that under the lead-ship of headquarter of the project of Baosteel Zhanjiang Iron and Steel, they would make their own obligatory contributions to complete the Zhanjiang project under construction as scheduled, and to spare no effort to guarantee the high quality of the project, and push forward construction progress and control the risk of investment by following the requirement of construction for the project of cold rolling line.
