Chapter 197: Concealing Heaven and Crossing the Sea (26)

"Say what is important, what is heat dissipation, heat dissipation, and what is important."

Liang Yuan finally successfully promoted some habitual terms from later generations within the group.

"The ship is not as good as land, the space is very limited, and there is almost no gap between various dangerous areas. It is possible that the entire ship will explode into the sky if it is not done well. Before, middle, and after the equipment is installed, the team must be changed and checked repeatedly. I have to be 100% sure that there is no problem."

Li Hongwei wore a hard hat, waved the folder in his hand, and emphasized the construction precautions on site with the operators from China Construction Third Bureau and Huangpu Shipyard.

More than a year has passed since Liang Yuan first proposed a power plant that could run away. Although he has been talking about the merger and acquisition of port lamps this year, he has not delayed the pre-research work of natural gas power generation ships at all.

According to Liang Yuan's personality, the power generation ship project is not so much for port lights, but rather the entire Hong Kong island energy market is a piggyback. Southeast Asia, Africa, South America, and Europe are the main markets for the future application of natural gas power generation ships.

The demand is obvious and there is no bottleneck in the industrial chain, so the entire project is progressing very quickly. Under Qilianshan, a team of 50 people has been preparing for a year by flying globally. It was not long ago that Liang Yuan said that he would give up his fantasy and prepare for a hard battle. The foundation construction work, which was originally slow, suddenly accelerated, and the four-month equipment construction cycle of the experimental power station was also compressed to 50 days.

Due to the tight time, it is extremely important to coordinate operations on-site by multiple departments. FAW Power directly dispatched Li Weihong, the chief engineer currently responsible for the power application of gas turbines, to the site.

"Don't worry, Master Li, the cost of these two ships will be at least one billion. How can we not do our best to do such a valuable thing? We have three groups in Huangpu and three groups in China Construction, a total of six groups, cross-supervision and cross-review."

Ou Li, the on-site construction representative of Huangpu Shipyard, made a promise with Li Hongwei.

The two barges, as the main body of the power station, are not valuable. What is valuable are the twelve sets of 18-fuel and steam combined cycle generator sets carried on each barge.

After more than two years of operation, FAW's gas turbine models in the power generation field have finally matured. Each 18-fired and steam combined generator set includes an 11-megawatt 110 series gas turbine, an independent waste heat boiler and a 10-megawatt steam turbine.

Under standard mode, each 18 unit has a rated output power of about 18 megawatts, and two power vessels can form a medium-sized power plant with a total installed capacity of 400 megawatts.

At this time, the total installed capacity of the port lights was only 2,000 megawatts. Yuanjia built one-fifth of the installed capacity of the port lights at one time. If the network is built, it will definitely be fatal to strike the port lights business.

Due to the independent accounting of the group, the 18 series power generation module FAW is priced at 40 million soft girl coins. Although it looks expensive, compared with other overseas power giants, the price is still very conscientious.

"Lao Ou, what you said is high and expensive depends on what you compare to. If compared with thermal power, the price is cheaper to the floor. A 400 megawatt medium-sized thermal power station will definitely not be less than 2 billion when it is built and connected to the grid."

"Although I'm not a shipbuilder, these two barges alone are worth 50 million."

Sun Gang, the on-site representative of China Construction Third Bureau, has rich construction experience in thermal power plants in China and is surprised by the low cost of mobile power plants.

Ou Li nodded.

"With the same installed capacity, the cost of a combined combustion and steam cycle power plant is half that of a thermal power plant, not to mention that this thing can be moved and deployed everywhere. This technology is really not ordinary advanced. I am afraid it is world-class. Mr. Li, when will this power plant be popularized in China?"

"Although the pollution is much less than coal-burning, the procurement cost of natural gas is much higher than that of coal-burning. Currently, the city that can be used in China is Hong Kong Island."

"Of course, the technology is definitely the world's top. The Group's legal department has checked patents and industrial practical natural gas power ships. We are the first in the world."

Li Hongwei said proudly.

Not to mention in the 1990s, even in the 1910s, power generation ships were also cutting-edge projects in the international shipbuilding industry.

The formal industrial argumentation of power generation ships was led by the Italian Classification Society after the new century, and joined forces with the top five classification societies in the world. After spending millions of dollars on research for more than half a year, we finally came to a feasible conclusion in terms of technology and profit. Only after that power generation ships gradually entered the vision of the international industry.

Yuanjia is currently engaged in this thing, whether domestic or international, and has no pioneer in mass industrial production to learn from, so he can only explore it himself.

China Construction Third Bureau has the first construction level in steel structures in China and also has the construction qualifications of thermal power stations. Huangpu Shipyard also has rich construction experience among freighters above 10,000 tons. Then, these two completely uncoordinated teams were integrated by Yuanjia to be responsible for the project construction of Hong Kong Island Mobile Power Station.

One of the core equipment of the project is the natural gas low-temperature storage system, which is the big can that is almost as difficult as the welding, and it is also a used product brought back by Yuanjia from Dongyang.

Nowadays, South Korea's shipbuilding industry is still unknown in its field. The shipbuilding companies that can make moves in Asia are Japan's Mitsui and Mitsubishi. Thanks to the barren resources of the island countries, Japan had completed the localization of ships in the late 1960s. In the early 1970s, a large number of Japanese local ships were launched and put into service, providing crucial energy input for the prosperity and development of the Japanese economy.

Strictly speaking, the basic technology of the entire industrial chain of power generation ships is now mature, but because this industrial chain is too special, ordinary companies are not able to initiate research and development that can affect the entire industrial chain.

The upstream of this industrial chain is highly difficult deep-sea exploration and mining. One billion or eight billion US dollars is thrown into a few wells. The middle of the industrial chain is also highly difficult special ship construction. A ship also needs a budget of at least half a million US dollars. The downstream of the industrial chain is more difficult turbine power generation equipment. Just the research and development of a brand new power generation model, it is not guaranteed to be successful if it is thrown into two or three million US dollars.

Enterprises that have the ability to develop new technologies in these three fields are all basic enterprises in their respective countries. What’s more important is that due to the high risk in the application of natural gas, professional and sensitive electronic detection equipment and electronic automation equipment are the key to maturing this industrial chain.

In the early 1990s, on this planet, there were only Yuanjia, one of the four major enterprises in the field of marine engineering equipment, ship construction, aviation engine research and development, and electronic chip manufacturing.

Although Yuanjia has lame places, such as the large low-temperature refrigerated tank that stores natural gas, Yuanjia is not missing in the core part that cannot be replaced in this industrial chain, such as natural gas fields with huge reserves, gas turbines that can adjust their performance in time, the R&D capabilities of new sets of automation equipment, large-scale ship manufacturing capabilities, etc.

Even Mitsui, whose industrial chain is terrifyingly long, has not yet extended its tentacles into the fields of deep-sea mineral mining and exploration due to its lack of hanging.

Liang Yuan dismantled the entire Liwan energy project into three major pieces: natural gas power generation, natural gas transportation, and natural gas mining.

Yuanjia is currently only responsible for burning natural gas to generate electricity, and mining and transportation are not involved for the time being. Otherwise, relying solely on domestic technical strength, let alone the difficult deep-sea mining, the transport ship will not be able to play with for the time being.

The most difficult condition in the entire industrial chain to find a large gas field has been solved by dice. When the resource reserves are clear, the mining equipment only needs a certain thickness of US dollars to handle. Yuanjia doesn’t even have to pay for it by himself. Some overseas bank groups will hold their limbs or five limbs to welcome Yuanjia to our bank for a loan.

The history of the desert tyrants making a fortune is a historical model that Yuanjia can refer to.

Natural gas transportation is a limited capacity in the Hong Kong Island power market. Two ships can form shuttle transportation routes with sufficient transportation capacity. In the ship construction market, due to the rapid advancement of the electronic chip industry in recent years, the new generation of facilities and equipment has experienced generation differences.

The first batch of transport ships launched by Dongyang were faced with competition for new high-performance ships, and the owners were facing the choice of either technical transformation or retirement and dismantling. Yuanjia spent 40 million US dollars to easily buy two second-hand old ships with a 20-year-old ship, a displacement of 30,000 tons and a natural gas transportation capacity from international ship owners, to build the raw material shuttle route of Liwan Energy.
