CTCI Plays a Part in Global Energy Transition: CTCI Receives MOEA's Public Construction Quality Award for LNG Storage Tank Project
TAIPEI, August 23, 2023- CTCI Corporation is pleased to become one of the recipients of Taiwan Ministry of Economic Affairs' (MOEA) 2023 Public Construction Quality Award for CPC Corporation's Third LNG Terminal Storage Tank EPC Project which was jointly executed with consortium partner Kawasaki Heavy Industries (KHI). David Chung, President of the Hydrocarbon Business Operations, received the award on behalf of CTCI Corp. from the MOEA Vice Minister Chuan-Neng Lin at the awards ceremony on August 23.
CPC's Third LNG Terminal Storage Tank Project is part of Taiwan's climate change mitigation strategy that seeks to shift power-generation source from coal to gas. CTCI, which sees itself as a "Guardian of Sustainable Earth" that strives for net zero emissions, has been actively supporting such strategy with green engineering expertise.
The two 160,000 m3 LNG storage tanks located at Taoyuan's Guanyin District are capable of supplying 3 million tons of LNG annually, and are by far the largest LNG tanks in Taiwan. With longstanding collaboration experience, CTCI and KHI used air-raising method to raise the tank roofs. Once the roofs were in place, the team was able to carry out further work unhindered by adverse weather conditions- including the well-known northeastern seasonal winds- for 388 days.
To overcome the problem of limited work area, as well as out of work at height safety considerations, the roof structures were prefabricated elsewhere by modularization method. The modularization method also helps increase work efficiency, enabling hoisting and installation of roof structures to be completed within just 7 days. The project was praised by the owner CPC for excellent quality work, robust project management, and the 2.76 million safe man hour record, an evidence of the reliable services.
CTCI is by far the only company in Taiwan capable of carrying out engineering, procurement, and construction for LNG terminals and gas-fired power plants, enjoying 75% market share in the local gas-fired power plant projects.
Beyond Taiwan, CTCI continues to assist countries and companies worldwide develop clean energy solutions and reach net zero goals through our expertise and experience in gas-fired power plants, LNG terminals, energy-from-waste plants, solar power plants, and offshore wind farms. CTCI also aims to diversify its energy portfolio by developing hydrogen, CCUS (carbon, capture, utilization and storage)-related technologies, so as to keep contributing to global sustainability.
