囊排浮舟海中游

“昆仑惊回首,大海跳蛟龙”。2009年7月17日,在扬州仪征船舶工业园中西造船有限公司一号船台,使用永泰新型高强度船用下水气囊53只,使自重8000吨的“中西101号”巨轮顺利下水,受到日方的高度赞扬。是谁在酷暑天气只用了53秒使如此大船顺利下水呢?

当时有歌日:赤日炎炎似火烧,安顺下水心如潮。挥汗如雨奔腾急,五十三秒海中漂。

“中西101号”顺利下水,是本公司七月份下水的第四条大船。为了保证该下水工程的顺利完成,永泰下水队多次到中西造船厂实际勘察船台,水位情况,并听取厂房及船东等多方意见。该船自重较大,而实际下水水位很低,下水难度较大。我公司经过模拟计算多方论证,制定了严谨的下水方案。在海事局召开的下水方案论证会上,该方案得到船厂、船东、海事局的一致认可。

此次下水共使用了53只YT-6型永泰下水气囊,其中12只为1.5m×8m,4只1.5m×18m。

从启笛砍缆到船完全下水用时53秒。整个下水顺畅无阻,下水后气囊无破损。该船系日本船东订购的散货船,下水后一片欢腾,受到日方的高度赞扬。

永泰下水队永安顺形象最终定格为一首诗:

安顺下水不夜天,

四海龙王任调遣。

万吨巨轮海中漂,

海内朋友尽开颜。

The Kunlun Mountains Turn Back in Astonishment, While a Sea Dragon Leaps in the Ocean.” On July 17, 2009, at Dock No. 1 of Zhongxi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. in the Yangzhou Yizheng Shipbuilding Industrial Park, 53 new-type high-strength ship launching airbags from Qingdao Evergreen were used to successfully launch the “Zhongxi 101,” an 8,000-ton colossal vessel, earning high praise from the Japanese side. Who managed to launch such a massive ship in just 53 seconds amidst scorching summer heat?

At that time, a song was sung: “The scorching sun burns fiercely like fire, While Eversafe’s heart surges with excitement for the launch. Sweat pours like rain in a swift rush, Fifty-three seconds and the ship glides on the sea.”

The successful launch of the “Zhongxi 101” marked the fourth large vessel launched by our company in July. To ensure the smooth completion of this launch project, Qingdao Evergreen’s launch team conducted multiple on-site inspections of the dock and water levels at Zhongxi Shipbuilding, and also listened to opinions from the shipyard, shipowners, and other parties. Given the vessel’s substantial self-weight and the low actual launch water level, the launch posed significant challenges. After meticulous simulations and calculations, our company formulated a rigorous launch plan. At the launch plan review meeting held by the Maritime Safety Administration, the plan received unanimous approval from the shipyard, shipowners, and the Maritime Safety Administration.

A total of 53 pieces of YT-6 type Qingdao Evergreen launch airbags were used for this launch, including 12 measuring 1.5m×8m and 4 measuring 1.5m×18m. From the sounding of the horn and cutting of the cables to the complete launch of the vessel, it took only 53 seconds. The entire launch proceeded smoothly without any hindrance, and none of the airbags were damaged afterward. The vessel, a bulk carrier ordered by a Japanese shipowner, was met with jubilation after its successful launch, earning high praise from the Japanese side.

The image of Qingdao Evergreen’s launch team, embodying peace and prosperity, was ultimately immortalized in a poem:

“Eversafe’s launch illuminates the nightless sky, Commanding the Dragon Kings of the four seas at will. A 10,000-ton colossus glides on the sea, Bringing joy to friends across the nation.”
