Liaoning: By 2025, the chemical refinement rate will reach 50%

　　Sinochem News The petrochemical and fine chemical industry is an important part of Liaoning's "original brand name" and one of the three pillar industries of the industry
.
Recently, the "Implementation Plan for the Development of Petrochemical and Fine Chemical Industry in Liaoning Province" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan") was officially released, which clarified the specific goals and practical paths for the development of this industry
.

　　According to the Liaoning Daily, Liaoning Province will focus on solving the structural contradictions of "refining" but insufficient "chemical", "rough" but insufficient "fine", and build a world-class petrochemical and fine chemical industry base
.
By 2025, the proportion of the province's refined oil production in crude oil processing will drop to 40%, the operating income of the fine chemical industry will reach 200 billion yuan, and the chemical refinement rate will reach 50%
.
The proportion of R&D investment in the petrochemical industry standard enterprises accounts for 1.
5% of the operating income, of which the R&D investment of fine chemical enterprises accounts for 5% of the operating income, and the output value of chemical parks accounts for 70% of the industry
.

　　In order to achieve the goal, the "Plan" has formulated a total of seven key tasks
.
In terms of accelerating the construction of industrial bases, the development concept of "baseization, parkization, and integration" will be adopted, and the industrial layout will be optimized through relocation, transformation or integration of production capacity, and a spatial pattern of coordinated development with coastal areas as the mainstay and inland areas as a supplement will be constructed
.
Accelerate the construction of Changxing Island (West Middle Island) and Liaodong Bay petrochemical industry bases, each with a 30 million-ton refining and chemical integration capacity
.
In terms of improving technological innovation capabilities, focus on the basic research field of fine chemical industry, meet the industrial needs of Liaoning Province, encourage and guide enterprises and scientific research units to carry out basic research and free exploration in key directions
.
Strengthen the construction of platforms for technological innovation and achievement transformation, and increase support for pilot bases
.

The adjustment of industrial structure is both the focus and difficulty of Liaoning petrochemical industry
.
The "Plan" emphasizes that it is necessary to ensure the stable exploitation of Liaohe Oilfield and maintain an annual production capacity of 10 million tons of crude oil and 800 million cubic meters of natural gas
.
Strengthen the strategic reserve and transportation capacity of oil and natural gas, and promote the construction of the Liaohe natural gas underground gas storage group project in an orderly manner
.
Focus on promoting the transformation and upgrading of CNPC's Qihu refinery in Liaoning, gradually reducing the output of refined oil, increasing the output of chemical raw materials such as olefins and aromatics, and the supply capacity of downstream products
.
In terms of fine chemicals and new chemical materials, Liaoning Province will focus on solving the contradiction that domestic high-end chemicals are highly dependent on imports, give full play to its industrial foundation and technological advantages in the fields of catalysts and special electronic gases, and focus on conquering a number of key core technologies
.
At the same time, strengthen the development of new materials such as coal chemical industry, salt chemical industry, fluorine chemical industry, magnesium chemical industry, and boron chemical industry
.

　　The petrochemical industry is a high energy consumption industry, and Liaoning Province has always attached great importance to promoting the low-carbon and green development of enterprises
.
The "Plan" makes it clear that the construction of enterprise energy-saving technology transformation projects will be promoted against the industry benchmark level, and the construction of key intelligent manufacturing demonstration projects, intelligent factories and intelligent parks will be accelerated
.
Actively promote the digital transformation and upgrading of the petrochemical industry to improve production efficiency
