Companies gain from favorable policies in pilot FTZs, shutdown of foreign shipyards
China s ship repair and maintenance sector will see a robust period this year, thanks to favorable policies in the pilot free trade zones and the shutdown of several foreign shipyards for COVID-19 prevention requirements, industry experts said.
Like maintenance services for family vehicles, this kind of work is essential to keep mechanical equipment or machinery running smoothly on a ship. Be it a large structure or a small machine, efficient maintenance can prolong the life of such equipment.

An operation to unload a hold ravaged by fire aboard cargo ship the Kota Bahagia started at the Port of Napier on Thursday.
While local cargo had previously been discharged, the latest operation involves removal of windfarm turbines in the hold when it erupted in flames dockside at the port on the morning of December 18.
Details were unconfirmed but what was thought to be the first load left the port about 2pm, a large shrink-wrapped load on a truck and trailer with a wide-load escort. At least three other trucks were at the port awaiting loading.
