On June 24,2025, the new 85,000-ton multi-purpose vessel "CSPC JADE", which was approved by China Classification Society for drawing and construction inspection, was successfully named and delivered. Zhang Hui, the general manager of Dalian Branch, attended the naming ceremony.
The 85,000-ton series of new multi-purpose ships is the largest multi-purpose pulp ship type in terms of deadweight tonnage at present. "CSPC JADE" is the second ship of the fourth-generation upgraded type, which is plan approved and shipbuilding surveyed by Dalian Branch.
Technology enables new multi-purpose ships to achieve breakthroughs in upgrading
The Dalian Branch has completed plan approval and shipbuilding surveys for over 40 vessels across multiple series, accumulating extensive experience in survey. It has been deeply involved in the design and shipbuilding phases of these vessels, they provide customized survey services and technical support tailored to their dual characteristics of "multi-shipment adaptability + green energy efficiency". In terms of seaworthiness certification, specialized certifications were obtained for cargo hold water spray systems, foldable commercial vehicle-specific frames, and one-to-one temperature monitoring and early warning systems for new energy vehicles, ensuring the vessels can simultaneously meet transportation requirements for oversized cargo such as pulp, high-speed trains, and wind power equipment. In terms of green energy compliance,CCS participated throughout the review process for energy efficiency optimization plans. The vessel passed the CCS Green Ship Certification, with its main engine Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) meeting the latest International Maritime Organization (IMO) standards. For structural safety assurance, CCS addressed structural strength challenges posed by the vessel's massive tonnage by conducting stress tests on critical components, ensuring safe navigation under extreme sea conditions and facilitating smooth delivery of the vessel.
In the subsequent plan approval and survey of 85,000 tons of new multi-purpose ships, CCS will continue to make innovative breakthroughs, optimize service plans and inspection modes, provide comprehensive services for ship technology upgrading and iteration, and contribute to the development of intelligent and green shipping and the building of a world-class multi-purpose ship fleet to escort the development.
