Quick action
Create a new petrochemical city with integrated production and city
This year, Zhangzhou carried out the "year of tackling key problems in industrial development project construction" and the "seven-to-one-look" competition to accelerate the construction of a world-class green eco-petrochemical base.
Working hard on "fast" is the proper meaning of improving efficiency. At present, the development of Gu Lei Petrochemical Base has been accelerated in an all-round way, and the industrial system has been improved day by day, initially forming two industrial chains of "aromatic hydrocarbon-polyester" and "olefin-plastic". There are 53 industrial projects that have been put into operation, under construction, contracted and under discussion, with a total investment of 329.516 billion yuan, an annual output value of 422.773 billion yuan and a tax revenue of 37.474 billion yuan …
Quick response in tackling difficult problems. The special class in Gu Lei Development Zone was stationed in the provincial department, and it only took more than one month to complete the evaluation and approval of 28 key industrial projects such as Tongkun Polyester and Tianchen. Linked with the provincial departments to open a "green channel", in less than seven months, it promoted the development plan of 24,700 mu of land expropriation and the transfer of 3,688 mu of Du Xun saltworks waste to the provincial government for approval; 4,457 mu of land for Zhongsha Gu Lei Ethylene Project was approved. Under the personal coordination of the main leaders of the provincial party Committee, the project’s 5.5 million tons of new raw material solution was successfully approved by the National Development and Reform Commission; 117.6 hectares of sea for the first phase project of refining and chemical integration in Gu Lei was approved by the State Council.
Quick approval on project commencement. Gu Lei Development Zone vigorously carried forward the spirit of "do it right away and get down to work", and realized that it took only nine months for Sino-Saudi Arabia Gu Lei ethylene project to sign the joint venture contract and approve the project, and successfully completed the anti-monopoly investigation procedures of the State Anti-Monopoly Bureau and related industrial related countries; Tongkun polyester project with a total investment of 12 billion yuan was signed and started in the same year; It took less than 100 days for the first phase project of Gu Lei Refining and Chemical Integration with a total investment of 34.5 billion yuan to be put into production, setting a new record for Sinopec Group’s large ethylene project in recent years.
In addition, follow up quickly on the basic facilities. The public facilities required for industrial projects to be put into production are becoming more and more perfect. Now, the park has built 18 productive wharf berths with an annual throughput of 34.54 million tons, 3.31 million cubic meters of liquid tank farm, Tenglong Thermal Power Station and 32 kilometers of utility tunnel. The first phase of Huaneng Gu Lei Thermal Power Plant in the north is planned to be completed within the year, with an annual power supply of 550 million kWh after production, achieving a daily sewage treatment capacity of 100,000 cubic meters and a daily gas supply capacity of 360,000 cubic meters.

Optimization mechanism
Create a first-class business environment highland
Improve efficiency, focusing on "excellent" service quality.
The business environment is the "bull’s nose" of industrial services. Gu Lei Development Zone has strengthened the mechanism guarantee, continued to deepen the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform, and launched the "Thousands of Cadres Hanging Thousands of Enterprises" assistance activities.
Optimize the working mechanism. The provincial party committee and government attached great importance to the work in Gu Lei, and set up a special class headed by provincial leaders to guide the industrial development in Gu Lei. The Zhangzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government set up a leading group for petrochemical base construction headed by the main leaders of Zhangzhou City, established a monthly on-site office mechanism, and coordinated and solved 24 major issues such as cooperative development and special preferential policies. In view of the characteristics of high-level approval and wide coordination of petrochemical industry projects, a special class for major petrochemical projects in Gu Lei, headed by the main leaders of Zhangzhou Municipal Government, was set up, and the working mechanism of "consultation once a week and summary on January 1" was established to actively promote the "storage and regulation transfer" of Sinopec Phase II project. Gu Lei Development Zone has set up a petrochemical base coordination group and a petrochemical park coordination office headed by the main leaders of the district, and implemented a "one-window" inventory service to provide full-cycle tracking services for enterprises that have landed.
Optimize the examination and approval mechanism. Gu Lei Development Zone has carried out the service of "no veto in the window" and established a rapid reporting mechanism for veto of examination and approval items step by step, effectively solving the problems of "no receipt" and "random return" in the process of administrative examination and approval service. Gu Lei Development Zone implemented a pilot reform of relatively centralized administrative licensing rights, and 360 service items related to project construction were subject to "one seal for examination and approval", with the statutory time limit reduced by 90.9%, and the enterprise start-up examination and approval achieved "one day+zero cost". For example, the Tongkun polyester project with an investment of 12 billion yuan takes only 4 hours from the window application to the completion of the company registration.
Optimize the tracking mechanism. Gu Lei Development Zone implements the "two single forms" management of key projects, and formulates task lists, responsibility lists and completion schedules one by one, with regular supervision and closed-loop management. Gu Lei Development Zone has established the mechanism of "three forms of supervision" and applied the results to the "1+N" style discipline supervision mechanism and the cadre style documentary file results application mechanism to fully guarantee the project construction.
