Binhua Carbon Three Carbon Four Comprehensive Utilization Project LPG raw material sea channel officially opened

At 14:58 on October 15, the “Yuyou Spirit” ship, which traveled across the ocean from Houston, USA, and loaded with low-temperature propane, successfully berthed at berth #8 of Binzhou Port after 36 days of sea voyage. This is the first foreign trade VLGC ship to arrive at Binzhou Port since its establishment, marking the official completion of the sea channel for LPG raw materials of Binzhou Chemical Group’s carbon three and four comprehensive utilization project.
