The
ABS Shipbuilding Steel required for offshore engineering equipment requires high reliability and safety. The steels of different strength grades are selected according to the type of construction and service conditions, mainly ABS Shipbuilding Steel and
CCS Shipbuilding Steel.
The proportion of steel used in offshore equipment is much lower than that of ordinary ships. For example,
Shipbuilding Steel Plate accounts for only 8% to 10% of the cost of offshore engineering equipment. However, industry insiders said that although the total demand is not large, the offshore products are less likely to be withdrawn, the market demand is stable, and the profits are relatively high.
Therefore, it is recommended that China's qualified steel enterprises should look at the market and promote the R&D and production of EH36 Shipbuilding Steel Plate to open up new economic growth points for enterprises.
