At the construction site of the Huan Da New Energy 350,000-ton-per-year natural gas liquefaction project inside the Tuyou Banner New-Type Industrial Park, work is advancing simultaneously across multiple fronts, including tank welding, equipment installation, and pipeline laying, with the roar of machinery continuing day and night.
This green energy key project, with total investment of 400 million yuan and covering 200 mu of land, is seizing the golden autumn construction period and charging toward its year-end construction milestone.
In the project's liquefaction unit area, Gong Yong, the on-site project manager from Shandong Jereh Kaitai Technology Co., Ltd., is checking safety measures for equipment installation one by one. Originally from Guizhou, he has been rooted in this project for three months, and during this National Day holiday he voluntarily stayed at the construction site.
"I am on duty during National Day! During the holiday period, we strictly advance all progress under the principles of safety first and quality as the foundation, with key control over safety risks in equipment installation, pipeline installation, and Tank 201 installation, to ensure the project advances smoothly," Gong Yong said. Although it is a regret not to go home and reunite with family, being able to personally take part in the construction of a key green energy project and contribute to its early commissioning makes him feel grounded and honored.
He is not the only one giving up holiday reunions. On this construction site, there are also many builders from other places, scattered across different processes such as welding, installation, and civil works, each guarding their posts and working in coordination to ensure project construction does not stop during the holiday.
It is understood that this project is a key supporting project for Baotou City's Tuyou Banner in laying out green and low-carbon industries and improving the regional clean energy supply guarantee system. The project has a total investment of 400 million yuan and covers an area of 200 mu. It is planned to build a modern LNG production line and supporting liquefaction, safety, storage, and transportation facilities, while also building core main works such as LNG storage tanks, a central control room, a compressor plant, and a fire pump station, and revitalizing and renovating idle buildings originally in the park to save resources and improve construction efficiency.
The project adopts the mature, safe, and stable MRC mixed refrigerant cycle refrigeration process used in the industry, which is energy-saving, environmentally friendly, safe, and reliable. Once completed, the project will significantly enhance the region's capacity for clean energy storage, peak shaving, and supply guarantee, optimize the local energy structure, and help drive the banner's energy industry toward a green and low-carbon transformation.
The project started construction in July 2026 and is scheduled to be completed in July 2027.
"We will continue to accelerate construction progress, reverse the schedule and refine milestones, strictly manage work safety and on-site management, regularly investigate hidden hazards, and steadily advance follow-up equipment supporting work, project acceptance, and commissioning," said Xue Shuai, safety director of Inner Mongolia Huan Da New Energy Co., Ltd. "We will push forward project construction with high standards and strict requirements, striving for early completion, early use, and early results, and contributing to local economic development."
