Exhaustion or rebirth: Panjin turns to open to the sea.

-Solutions to the World Problems of Resource-based Cities (18)

Panjin City, Liaoning Province has the largest production base of heavy oil and high pour point oil in China and Liaohe Oilfield, the third largest oilfield in China. Panjin city is also built because of oil and prospers because of oil.

65438-0970, Liaohe Oilfield began large-scale exploitation. In the past 40 years, it has produced more than 400 million tons of crude oil and more than 83 billion cubic meters of natural gas. The proportion of oil and gas exploration industry in the city's economy has been as high as 70% for many years, accounting for more than 90% of the city's industrial proportion.

Unexpectedly, hardships, like oil buried deep underground, were mined together. From 1996, Panjin's economic growth began to slow down. During the Ninth Five-Year Plan and the Tenth Five-Year Plan, Panjin's economic growth hovered at a low level 12 years. Panjin has great pressure on economy, employment and ecology.

Panjin is the only coastal city among them. The past life of this city began to be re-examined.

According to the data, the output of Liaohe Oilfield reached the highest level in history at 1995, and then decreased year by year. Since 2009, the annual output has remained at around100000 tons.

With the decrease of oil and gas production year by year, a large number of employees have moved from oil fields to society, and the employment contradiction has gradually increased; Long-term oil exploitation also poses a potential threat to the ecology.

Resources are no longer "reliable". After half a century of oil exploitation in Panjin, how can the 6.5438+0.4 million citizens transform?

According to the data, development to the sea, comprehensive transformation and strengthening the city with Hong Kong have become the main lines of Panjin's transformation, and Panjin has established "three major tasks" of coastal development and opening up, urban-rural integration development and harmonious Panjin construction.

Although the city of Panjin is located at the mouth of the Liaohe River, it has been "not seeing the sea by the sea, not knowing that the sea does not need the sea" for many years, and "turning to the sea" to develop the marine economy has become an important part of the transformation.

"Transformation is forced out, and there is still so much oil. If you rely on it, you will not live sooner or later. " In the view of Gao Ke, deputy secretary of Panjin Municipal Committee and mayor, the transformation forced Panjin to develop new mechanisms, new ideas and new space.

"For example, Liaodong Bay, after years of exploration, decided to develop to the sea and become a strong city with Hong Kong. Now it has become the leader of urban development, which is forced by transformation. "

After nearly 10 years of development, Panjin has a new look.

The government put forward the idea of "turning to the sea". Along the coastline of118km, Panjin develops and builds Liaodong Bay New Area on the left bank of Liaohe River, and plans to build Liaohekou Ecological Economic Zone on the right bank of Liaohe River.

It has formed a collection and distribution system with Panjin Port as the core and running through the hinterland of Northeast China, ending Panjin's history of "no port at sea" and becoming the nearest sea passage between Northeast China and Mengdong.

Panjin Port is an important part of Liaoning coastal port group. Construction started in May 2009 and was opened to traffic in September 20 10. June 20 15, the State Council officially approved the opening of Panjin Port with a throughput of 34.43 million tons.

On June 5438+ 10 of the same year, the "Pan-European" container international train was officially launched, and Panjin Port actively integrated into the national "Belt and Road" strategy and made substantial progress. It has been identified by the Liaoning provincial government as the seaport of Shenyang Economic Zone, realizing the city's coastal and port-facing.

In the process of going to sea, Panjin City did not give up the' oil and gas' resources, but relied on oil and gas resources to extend the upstream and downstream industrial chains and implement deep processing of products.

Relying on this advantage, Panjin focuses on developing petrochemical industry, fine chemical industry, oil and gas equipment manufacturing, agricultural products processing and six key alternative industries focusing on tourism, commerce and logistics.

In recent years, the reconstruction and expansion project of China Weapons Liaoning Huajin Petrochemical has landed in Panjin, the construction of the Northeast Comprehensive Industrial Base of China Grain Storage has started, the manufacturing and processing base of Zhongwang aluminum industrial chain has been comprehensively promoted, and the first phase of Changchun Petrochemical, Liancheng Chemical, He Yun Rubber and Offshore Base has been completed and put into operation. ...

In 20 12, Panjin Petrochemical and Fine Chemical Industry Cluster took the lead in becoming the first industrial cluster exceeding 100 billion yuan in Liaoning Province.

Panjin is located at the intersection of Daliao River, Liaohe River, Daling River and Bohai Sea, with a coastline of118km and a coastal beach of 9.3 million mu. It is an important rice producing area and high-quality rice production base in China. The annual output of aquatic products reaches 330,000 tons.

It has the largest reed in the world, with an annual output of 500,000 tons; Red Beach, a wonder of the world, is a national 4A-level scenic spot. The underground is rich in hot springs, well salt and other resources, and is known as "land of fish and rice", "land of cranes" and "land of black-billed gulls".

The GDP of Panjin area reached126.79 billion yuan, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size reached 59.2 billion yuan, and the investment in fixed assets reached 98,365.438+0 billion yuan.

The added value of non-oil and gas industries accounts for 88% of the city's economy, and the added value of six successive alternative industries accounts for more than 70% of the city's economy. In the process of Panjin's transformation from "oil city" to "port city", the proportion of oil and non-oil industries reversed and the economic structure reversed.

"The essence of Panjin's transformation lies in going out to sea, and the foundation lies in opening up." Sun Guoxiang, secretary of Panjin Municipal Party Committee, thinks that resource-based cities have no future if they only care about themselves. Under the new opportunity of revitalizing the old industries in Northeast China, Panjin can only go out if it is open, otherwise its advantages will not be released.
