Through the unremitting efforts of shipbuilders over more than 120 years, undergoing four relocations and expansions, it has developed to today with essential leaps in scale, facility capacity, construction products, and management level! In July, the enterprise was transferred from the Ministry of Communications to China State Shipbuilding Corporation; in July, according to the State Council's approval for the formation of China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation, it was placed under China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation; in January, the Qingdao Beihai Shipyard underwent asset restructuring by China Development Bank, China Huarong Asset Management Corporation, and China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation, and Qingdao Beihai Shipbuilding Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. was registered and established; in June, to support the construction of the Olympic Sailing Base for the Qingdao Olympic Sailing Regatta, the enterprise was wholly relocated to the Qingdao Haixiwan Shipbuilding and Repair Base; in June, Beichuan Heavy Industry and Wuchang Shipbuilding Group implemented resource integration, becoming a holding subsidiary of Wuchang Shipbuilding Group; in November, it became a member unit of China State Shipbuilding Corporation Limited, and the company was renamed China State Shipbuilding Corporation Qingdao Beihai Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. The Haixiwan Shipbuilding and Repair Base is one of the key projects of the three major shipbuilding bases in the national medium- and long-term development plan for the shipbuilding industry, and is one of the largest modern shipbuilding and repair bases in China, which is of great significance for enhancing the comprehensive strength of the equipment manufacturing industry in the Bohai Rim region, promoting the economic development of Shandong Province, and constructing China's strategy as a major shipbuilding country. Over the years, Qingdao Beihai Shipbuilding has successively won various honorary titles such as "Top 100 Enterprises in Qingdao", "Advanced Enterprise in Shandong's Shipbuilding Industry", and "Leading Enterprise in Shandong's Modern Marine Industry", has passed the national "High-tech Enterprise" certification, and multiple scientific and technological achievements have won awards from the Ministry of Science and Technology, Shandong Province, and China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation. The company's Party Committee has been awarded the "Advanced Grassroots Party Organization" title by China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation. A number of advanced collectives and individuals have emerged, including "Shandong Province Workers' Pioneer", "Shandong Province Advanced Grassroots Party Organization", "Qingdao Workers' Pioneer", "Qingdao Women's Achievement Model Post", "Shandong Province Model Worker", "Qingdao Model Worker", "Qingdao Outstanding Communist Party Member", "Qingdao Grand Craftsman", "Qingdao Craftsman", and "Qingdao Outstanding Worker of the New Era". Qingdao Beihai Shipbuilding has the capability to construct various types of civil merchant ships, marine engineering equipment, and floating structures, and is especially skilled in building Suezmax-class oil tankers, large bulk carriers, very large ore carriers, and Suezmax-class FPSO vessels. Its annual shipbuilding capacity is 3 million deadweight tons, annual ship repair of 212 ships, production of 500 lifeboats, and 4 offshore platforms. In the factory layout, the eastern part is a ship block manufacturing area equipped with the domestic leading shipbuilding production line, covering an area of hundreds of thousands of square meters; in the western part, four 800-ton gantry cranes stand tall, complementing the magnificent 500,000-ton and 300,000-ton large shipbuilding docks, forming the entire shipbuilding area. The northern part is a ship repair area with the largest and longest 300,000-ton repair dock, 150,000-ton repair dock, and 100,000-ton floating dock in China, also equipped with a 500-ton gantry crane. The southeastern part is the yacht and boat machinery area, which holds an important position worldwide in the research and production of life-saving equipment. The northeastern part is the offshore engineering area, which has a 300,000-ton offshore engineering construction dock, six-span steel structure workshop, five-span module workshop, four-spray nine-coating painting workshop, and large assembly site. Since that year, more than 40 180,000-ton bulk carriers have been delivered in batches. This ship type has successively won Qingdao Excellent and Shandong Excellent awards, and is acclaimed as China's model bulk carrier. More than 10 82,000-ton bulk carriers have been constructed and delivered. The world's first 250,000-ton ore carrier was successfully built, and a total of 12 have now been delivered. Among them, the "Shandong Zhengtong" was selected among the world's best 50 ships in that year, becoming the benchmark for the design and construction of a new generation of very large ore carriers. This ship type also won the first prize of the China Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers for science and technology. Two 113,000-ton product tankers, eight 400,000-ton very large ore carriers, nine 325,000-ton ore carriers, six 210,000-ton bulk carriers, and four 64,000-ton wood chip carriers have been successfully delivered. In the aspect of offshore engineering equipment, more than 10 platforms have been constructed and delivered, including the "Qilu first ship" - the 100,000-ton "Offshore Oil 115" floating production storage and offloading vessel, the "Asia's largest barge" - a 30,000-ton jacket launching barge, and China's largest submersible offshore drilling platform - the "China Oil Sea 33". The first self-operated "Offshore Oil 119" FPSO project was delivered to CNOOC. After the long-ton floating dock built for the United States was put into operation, a 70,000-long-ton floating dock was completed and delivered; a 40,000-ton lifting floating dock built for Russia was successfully delivered. Currently, 210,000-ton bulk carriers, 325,000-ton very large ore carriers, the world's first 100,000-ton intelligent fishery large aquaculture vessel, large floating docks for Russia, and ton-class crane vessels are being built in batches. Ship repair adheres to the orientation of "market guidance, technical support, production guarantee, and satisfactory service", and product development takes "strengthening conversions, developing offshore engineering, and deeply cultivating routine repairs" as the direction, vigorously promoting green ship repair. The total volume of ship repair and the quality of economic operation are at the forefront of the domestic industry. In recent years, it has continuously completed conversions such as the upgrade of multiple series of Maersk container ships, the cutting and lengthening of Norwegian car carriers, the conversion of a British shuttle tanker into a semi-submersible vessel, and the cutting, lengthening, and upgrading of large French container ships. The technical and construction level for installing scrubbers is leading. The routine ship repair market covers more than 30 countries and regions. In the aspect of ship supporting facilities, through independent research and development, China's leading brand - the BH series of FRP lifeboats, rescue boats, and supporting davits and recovery devices - has been formed. At the same time, new products such as aluminum alloy high-speed boats, special material speedboats, and unmanned boats have been developed, among which the 6.5-meter unmanned boat won the second prize of the National Technological Invention Award. The production of ship piping systems, steel outfitting, and unit modules is second to none in China, with strong pipe processing capability and outfitting parts manufacturing capability, able to meet the production needs of various products. In the field of application equipment industry, with tunnel boring as the main business, rooted in the Qingdao subway market, it continuously develops domestic and foreign markets, and has successively researched and manufactured hard rock tunnel boring machines and composite shield machines for subway construction at home and abroad. It adheres to diversified product structuring, strengthens the development of steel structure products such as bridges, rubber forging machinery, and ship and offshore engineering supporting products, continuously expanding market share.
