[Major Project] BASF (Guangdong) Integrated Base Project

On May 30, 2020, the first batch of devices of the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project officially piled up. On September 6, 2022, the first set of installations of the project was officially put into production.

Zhanjiang East Island, the blue sea surface is connected to the sky. In the East Island Petrochemical Industrial Park, the "first case" of China's wholly -owned enterprises in China's heavy chemical industry -BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project (hereinafter referred to as the "integrated base project") is accelerating construction.

On September 6, the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project invested in Zhanjiang held a comprehensive construction and the first set of installation ceremonies in the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project in Zhanjiang. Han Zheng, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and vice premier of the State Council, attended and announced the launch of the project's comprehensive construction and the first set of devices.

The total investment of the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project is about 10 billion euros, which is the largest single project in Germany's investment in China. The project was launched in November 2019. At present, the first set of devices are officially put into production. The first phase of the project has entered a comprehensive construction stage, mainly including an annual output of 1 million tons of ethylene and downstream processing devices.

"This is an inspiring starting point. The official put of the first setting of the installation to the base has achieved a good start. After the completion of Zhanjiang integrated base, it will become the third largest production base in BASF in the world. Continue production and establishing a model. "Dr. Martinbrudermüller, chairman of the executive board of BASF European Corporation.

At the coast of the South China Sea, world -class petrochemical giants have risen. The comprehensive construction and the first set of devices of the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project is of great significance for Sino -German deepening economic and trade investment cooperation, responding to the impact of the epidemic, maintaining the security and stability of the supply chain of the global petrochemical industry chain.

Ten billion euro projects enter the comprehensive construction stage

As one of the world's most famous chemical companies, the German BASF Group aimed at Zhanjiang, located in western Guangdong. On May 30, 2020, the first batch of installations of integrated base projects was officially piled up, which marked the official step in the construction stage of the project with a total investment of 10 billion euros.

Today, this project has completed various approval procedures, entered the acceleration stage of comprehensive construction, and has achieved major progress in milestone.

On September 5th, the Guangdong Provincial Government and Bascus, Germany, held a high -level consultation meeting of the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project in Zhanjiang City to jointly promote the comprehensive construction of the project. Governor of Guangdong Province Wang Weizhong said that the BASF project, as a large international petrochemical project, is a benchmark project for cooperation between China and Germany. Under the vigorous promotion of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, the efficiency and progress of progress are leading in the construction of major petrochemical bases in China and the world, and it is a new speed of the new era.

"BASF is unswervingly optimistic about Guangdong, full of confidence in promoting project construction and expanding project investment, will closely seize development opportunities, further increase investment, and actively promote the cooperation between the two parties to a new level and go to a new era." Essence

BASF has a history of more than 130 years in China. The integrated base project settled in Zhanjiang has many eye -catching elements: this is the largest single overseas investment project of BASF so far. It is one of the first batch of comprehensive chemical product production bases operated by foreign -funded enterprises. Become the largest production base in Asia and the world's third largest integration ...

Why choose Zhanjiang, Guangdong? In the eyes of Lin Hanping, the senior vice president of BASF Global and the head of China New Integrated Base, and the general manager of the BASF Integrated Base (Guangdong) Co., Ltd., Guangdong is one of the fastest development of the chemical industry. Zhanjiang has rich natural resources and excellent excellence. Sham Shui Harbor and convenient transportation network are an excellent position to serve Guangdong and global customers.

"Fast" is the strongest impression of the outside world's integrated base project.

In July 2018, under the joint witness of the senior leaders of the Sino -German government, the BASF and the Guangdong Provincial Government signed a memorandum of understanding of non -binding cooperation in Berlin, Germany to announce the third largest base in BASF in Guangdong; in January 2019, BASF and and and and and with The Guangdong Provincial Government signed a framework agreement and officially announced that it has invested 10 billion euros in Zhanjiang City's second integration base in China. This is also the largest investment project of Bascus to date.

"It took less than two years from the signing of the memorandum of understanding to the first batch of devices. This is mainly due to the strong support of government departments and local communities, as well as the continuous efforts of the BASF team and partners." Lin Hanping introduced.

It is reported that the integrated base project includes a steam cracking device with an annual output of 1 million tons of ethylene and multiple sets of downstream devices. It is mainly concentrated in the downstream industries such as petroleum smelting by -products, chemical products, and chemical by -products. Engineering plastics, fine chemicals and other products for market demand. The first phase of the project includes engineering plastics and thermoplastic polyurethane devices. After the completion of the integrated base project, Zhanjiang Integration Base will become BASF's third largest integration production base in the world, second only to Germany's Ludwig Port and Belgium Antwerp base. The entire integrated base project will be constructed in installments and is planned to be completed in 2030.

In fact, since 2011, China's rapid growth in the chemical industry's income has been ranked first in the world, and its growth rate still exceeds other major chemical production areas. As the largest chemical market, by 2030, China's share in the global chemical industry will expand to 50%.

"As one of the earliest international chemical companies that entered the Chinese market after reform and opening up, BASF will participate in it and grow together." Lin Hanping said that benefiting from continuous improvement of business environment and continuous expanding market access policy, establishment of A integrated base project is of great significance.

At the same time, Lin Hanping believes that Zhanjiang, as a provincial sub -center city, relying on the radiation effect of the new pattern of development in Guangdong's "one core, one area, one area" region, BASF can actively participate in the high -quality development of Zhanjiang.

World -class petrochemical giants released the "dividend"

As one of the important pillar industries in Guangdong Province, the petrochemical industry has the characteristics of the industrial chain and has a pivotal position in the Guangdong industrial economic system.

The integrated base project landed on the coast of the South China Sea to run out of the development of the Guangdong coastal economic belt industrial agglomeration belt.

On September 6, the first installation of the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project was officially put into production. Since then, BASF will increase the production of 60,000 tons of modified engineering plastics for the Chinese market each year, and increase the total production capacity of the product from 2023 to 420,000 tons to meet the growing needs of customers, especially in cars and electronic products, etc. industry sector.

In the view of Song Weipu, general manager of Zhanjiang Shihua Chemical Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Zhanjiang Shihua"), the scale effect brought by the settlement of petrochemical giants will further accelerate industrial agglomeration and change the "oil head" of Guangdong's petrochemical industry. "The status quo of small and heavy heads.

Zhanjiang Shihua, where Song Weipu is located, is a wholly -owned subsidiary of Maohua Shihua Company. In March 2018, Zhanjiang Shihua was registered and established in Zhanjiang City and entered the Petrochemical Industrial Park of Dong Island. At present, the 300,000 tons/year hydrogen peroxide (27.5%) and 140,000 tons/annual crack -lobed scorch oil comprehensive use of the comprehensive use of two sets of main devices were officially put into production in mid -2021.

"In March 2021, Maohua Shihua Company signed a letter of intent for raw materials with Zhanjiang Bassf, and the pure benzene, C9 aromatics, C10+, acrylic, and C4 chain -related products produced by the future integrated base project will be used for Zhanjiang Shihua's from the Wah. In production. "Song Weipu gave an example of the reporter of" Southern "magazine. Taking the use of BASF's pure benzene resources as an example, the total investment in the project is high, and the new output value is expected to create a significant effect.

Extending the industrial chain is the biggest "dividend" brought to downstream enterprises for integrated base projects.

"The highlight of the BASF (Guangdong) integrated base project is that the waste heat of one set of production devices can be used by another set of production devices as energy, and even by -products can be used as raw materials for other devices, which is conducive to comprehensive use of raw materials and energy energy use. It is conducive to reducing logistics costs. "Song Weipu believes that the petrochemical industry chain still has a lot of room for growth and improvement.

Not only that, Song Weipu observed that many petrochemical companies are also negotiating with BASF, "there is huge potential for future cooperation space."

"Zhanjiang Shihua has applied for the construction of 300 acres of land for the construction of new projects. It is expected to invest more than 2 billion yuan at the place where the park is close to the Bassov (Guangdong) integrated base project." Song Weipu introduced.

In fact, in the planning of BASF, the future integrated base project from basic chemicals to the upstream and downstream production devices of consumer goods will form an integrated value chain, which will provide South China and multinational manufacturers with automobiles, buildings, high -speed rails, electronics and electrons. , Food packaging, family and personal care, aerospace and pharmaceutical industries.

Today, the "dividend" of petrochemical giants has been released.

The main person in charge of Zhanjiang Economic and Technological Development Zone introduced: "The Economic Development Zone follows the idea of ​​the" big project -industrial chain -industrial cluster -industrial base ". , Accelerate the construction of green low -carbon circular modern industrial parks, and create a highly integrated world -class petrochemical industry benchmark base. "

"We will give full play to the" magnetic field effect "of the leading project, make up for the industrial chain 'upstream and downstream', drive the professional and large -scale development of the industrial, promote the cluster of the industrial chain, and provide supportive opportunities for the sustainable development of investment promotion." According to the main person in charge of Zhanjiang Economic and Technological Development Zone, the Economic Development Zone is currently actively acting with BASF Corporation's investment promotion activities for the next tourists. With the effects of the BASF project and the resources of BASF, a group of powerful companies and signing a number of excellent quality s project.

In addition, Zhanjiang Economic and Technological Development Zone also commissioned internationally renowned companies to optimize the "Industrial Development Plan for the Industrial Park of Zhanjiang Dong Island Petrochemical Industrial Park", focusing on the construction of "two leaders, three chains, and five clusters", that is, relying on the China Science and Chemical and BASF project.Extend the three major industrial chains of ethylene, acrylic and aromatics, and create five major industrial clusters, including high -end coatings, vehicle materials, packaging materials, integrated circuit chemicals, high -performance and special functional materials, forming a world -class large -scale petrochemical base.According to the plan, by 2035, the total investment of Dong Island Petrochemical Industrial Park will reach 226.7 billion yuan, with an annual output value of 235.4 billion yuan, and an annual profit tax of 45.4 billion yuan.After the completion of the integrated base project, it will promote the important base of the sustainable development of world -class green chemicals in Zhanjiang East Island Petrochemical Base, further optimize the space layout of the Guangdong Petrochemical Park, promote the industrial chain to the middle and lower reaches, and promote the industrial structure from "dumbbells"Type" to the "coordinated type" development, creating a special petrochemical industry layout of the "Belt and Two Wings, Five Bases, and Multi -Parks".
