In 2024, Tianjin Dagang Port Area, Beijing Gas, Tianjin NG ship-shore joint emergency exercise
On September 6, Tianjin Maritime Search and Rescue Center, Tianjin Port and Shipping Administration, Dagang Maritime Safety Administration, and Beijing Gas Group jointly held the "2024 Tianjin Dagang Port Area Beijing Gas Tianjin LNG Ship-to-Shore Joint Emergency Exercise" at Beijing Gas Tianjin Nangang LNG Receiving Station, aiming to improve the emergency linkage capability of Dagang Port Area and increase the cooperative combat capability and emergency response efficiency in the process of responding to complex maritime emergencies.
The exercise was attended by a number of maritime search and rescue member units such as the port administrative department, the port area maritime, emergency response, and fire protection, as well as a number of maritime rescue units and port social forces. After the danger occurred, the Nangang Maritime Search and Rescue Sub-center and other departments quickly launched an emergency response, and organized the terminal to carry out a series of measures such as LNG leakage source detection, activation of emergency shut-off device, and dilution of water curtain wall. At the same time, emergency forces in the jurisdiction were dispatched to carry out maritime vigilance, personnel search, ship emergency plugging and marine pollutant disposal. The exercise lasted 1 hour and all subjects were successfully completed. A total of more than 60 rescuers were dispatched to the exercise, 14 ships of various types, 13 emergency vehicles such as firefighting, security, ambulance, and law enforcement, as well as 2 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and 1 water remote-controlled flying wing.
It is understood that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the LNG industry in Tianjin has developed rapidly, and three LNG receiving stations have been built successively, including Beijing Gas, the national pipeline network and Sinopec, with a total of 5 LNG special berths, and has become the largest LNG import base in the north. Carrying out emergency drills for LNG ships can effectively improve the emergency response capability to respond to emergencies at sea of LNG ships, create a good port logistics business environment for rapid economic development, further serve the green and low-carbon development strategy of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, and provide a strong guarantee for the safety of people's lives and property and the safety of the marine environment.
The exercise is about to usher in the first anniversary of the commissioning of the Beijing Gas Tianjin Nangang LNG Terminal, and it is also a comprehensive exercise before the arrival of the supply guarantee season. The relevant responsible comrades of the Municipal Port and Shipping Bureau said that the next step will be to coordinate development and safety, continue to promote the implementation of the three-year action to tackle the root cause of transportation safety production, provide a strong safety guarantee for the high-quality development of the transportation industry, and make every effort to ensure that the safety production situation in the port and shipping field of our city continues to be stable.
