In December 3rd, Jiangnan Shipyard (Group) Co., Ltd. and ChinaResearch Center of polar in Shanghai signed the "Snow Dragon"polar icebreaker restorative repair renovation construction contract,for the ship power system, deck machinery and environmental protection system for the resumption of repair transformation. Over the same period, the China State Shipbuilding Corporation seventh,eight Research Institute, China Shipbuilding Industry Corp Shanghai Qiyao System Engineering Co. Ltd. and the China Polar Research Center respectively, signed the repair design contracts and repair of the ship to the desired host, diesel generator set procurement contract.
"Snow Dragon", is currently China's only a polar research icebreaker,has carried out 15 Antarctic scientific expedition and the 5 Arcticscientific mission, many years "for" causing the ship scarred, related to the recovery of repair and modification work has become increasingly urgent. It is reported, due to the long-term in the north and south poles in special environment, and the use of high strength,"Snow Dragon" of the power system, deck machinery and otherequipment corrosion, wear and aging, safety performance has declined, become the influence of ship safety risks. In addition, in recent years, the international successively promulgated a new mandatory polar environment protection standard, on the ship's ballast water treatment, waste disposal and put forward higher requirements, and prohibited the use of heavy, and high sulfur content fuel in the Antarctic Treaty area.
Therefore, the Jiangnan Shipyard, seven, eight and Shanghai Qiyaosystem engineering company three will force on "Xuelong" Recoveryrepair transformation, so that the ship to meet the requirements of increasingly stringent standards, to further improve the safety performance, prolong the service life, meet the needs of polar and marine research in china. It is understood, according to the stipulations of the contract, "Snow Dragon", is scheduled for April 18, 2013 September 15, 2013 in plant transformation, from the factory,the total construction period is 150 days.
