Constantly aiming at the "white-collar engine room", it provides a good environment for production front-line workers and shipowners' inspection and inspection, and truly improves production efficiency and inspection efficiency.
- Continuing the record of the previous ship, both ships have achieved the "three clearing" work in the undocking stage, that is, clearing opinions, clearing orders, and clearing undocking projects.
- Solidify the standard construction period, the two ships will further improve the loading accuracy of the full-width deck section, gradually increase from the original large amount of loading margin trimming to a small amount of margin trimming, and realize the completion of full-width deck hoisting in 12 days and exterior trimming in 8 days Panel coating, the overall construction period is shortened by 5 days and the quality is double improved. It is worth mentioning that the wharf construction period of the last ship in this series reached 2.5 months, which was 1.5 months shorter than that of the previous ships of the same series, and the efficiency increased by 60%.
