People-Oriented, Safety-First, and Consolidating the Foundation for Safe Development
—— CLNG Launches a Series of Safety-Themed Initiatives Through Multiple Measures

In line with the national "Work Safety Month" campaign theme of "Everyone Speaks Safety, Everyone Knows Emergency Response," and grounded in the specific operational characteristics of high-end LNG shipping, shipbuilding, and repair & maintenance services, CLNG has implemented comprehensive safety management across all domains, including offshore operations, shipyard construction, and office safety. Focusing on four key levers—on-site control, hazard rectification, emergency response training, and collaborative governance—CLNG has rolled out targeted safety measures, strictly enforced safety responsibilities at all levels, and strengthened full-chain, role-specific safety controls. Through these efforts, CLNG has firmly established a safety culture rooted in the principle of “People-Oriented, Safety-First” and has effectively safeguarded the operational safety baseline in energy shipping.

Uniting efforts on the construction frontline to reach safety milestones, with shipyard-enterprise collaboration reinforcing on-site safety control

On June 10, a ceremony celebrating 10 million safe work hours on the QatarEnergy project was successfully held at the Hudong-Zhonghua shipyard. CLNG and Hudong-Zhonghua have cooperated deeply in the field of LNG shipbuilding for over two decades, jointly establishing a long-term standardized construction safety management mechanism. Given the complexity of construction processes, the multitude of risk points, and the challenging environments involving elevated work, confined spaces, and cross-operations, where operational control is difficult and compliance standards are stringent. The achievement of this 10-million safe-work-hour milestone represents a tangible outcome of closed-loop multi-party control involving the shipowner, shipyard, and supervisory team, as well as standardized operations by all personnel.

Sheng Shanxing, General Manager of CLNG, led a delegation to attend the event and delivered a speech. He highly commended the front-line construction personnel for their adherence to operational standards and strict compliance with construction discipline. He recognized Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding's project team for its phased and grid-based on-site safety management model, which relies on designated zone-specific supervision and a permit system for high-risk operations to routinely control on-site risks, thereby establishing a quality benchmark for safety management in LNG shipbuilding projects. During the event, outstanding individuals in safety-related and production roles were selected and commended. By leveraging these role models, the initiative encourages front-line operators to strictly follow operating procedures and practice safe operations.

Deepening Government-Enterprise collaborative oversight and advancing frontline closed-loop rectification of safety hazards

During Work Safety Month, the CLNG management team visited the Yangshan Port Maritime Safety Administration. In light of the company's actual LNG vessel navigation, berthing, and maintenance operations, both parties engaged in practical exchanges on vessel safety supervision while in port, joint waterborne risk prevention, emergency coordination for maritime contingencies, and shipping compliance management. They agreed on a normalized government-enterprise coordination and joint inspection mechanism to precisely align with the navigation control requirements for LNG clean-energy vessels, collectively ensuring the safety of maritime traffic in the jurisdiction.

On June 17, on the eve of the traditional Dragon Boat Festival, company leaders visited the Shekou Yiu Lian Dockyards to extend greetings to the crew of the "Dapeng Moon," which was undergoing dry-dock repairs, and conducted safety inspections and repair supervision. In line with the "Work Safety Month" deployment, they required ship management personnel to: first, deepen ship-shore coordination, maintain open information channels, and implement all special initiatives to high standards; second, comprehensively investigate hazards throughout the entire repair process, improve emergency response plans, and ensure emergency equipment remains fully operational at all times; third, balance schedule, quality, and safety, strictly enforcing accountability at all levels to ensure the repair is completed safely, with quality, and on schedule; and fourth, precisely address crew needs, strengthen logistical support, and effectively safeguard crew welfare. Additionally, in response to recent typical PSC inspection cases, the company continues to strengthen all employees' awareness of compliance and controls, routinely reinforcing vessel operations management, equipment maintenance and repairs, and on-the-job practical training to solidify the operational safety baseline and maximize charterers' operational efficiency.

Simultaneously strengthening office safety protocols and sharpening all employees' emergency response capabilities

On June 17, the Hong Kong office organized the 2026 annual integrated fire emergency evacuation drill, with active participation from employees in the Hong Kong office area. Prior to the drill, the company provided targeted pre-drill safety briefings, clearly outlining building evacuation routes, fire escape essentials, and basic self-rescue and evacuation protocols. Once the office fire alarm was activated, on-duty employees followed the unified direction of the property's fire safety supervisors, assembled in an orderly manner in compliance with regulations, and completed the entire evacuation process efficiently and orderly, with no instances of non-compliant delays or crowding. Based on a realistic office fire scenario, this drill tested employees' emergency response and coordinated evacuation capabilities, further strengthening the practical fire safety skills of all staff.

Focus on long-term, business-driven control and firmly implement normalized safety management across all areas

This series of Work Safety Month activities covered scenarios including shipbuilding, maritime transportation, shipyard repair and construction, and office-based emergency response drills, aligning closely with the company's integrated land-sea business operations. The initiatives covered multiple areas such as benchmark cultivation, hazard remediation, emergency drills, and coordinated collaboration.

Going forward, CLNG will remain closely focused on its core production and business operations, with particular attention to key areas including shipyard construction, maritime navigation, vessel maintenance, and office safety. The company will continue to enforce the three-tier safety responsibility system, routinely conduct on-site safety inspections, job-specific safety education, and realistic emergency drills, and collaborate with partner shipyards and local regulatory authorities on coordinated risk management. Through these sustained efforts, CLNG aims to practically consolidate a comprehensive safety barrier, steadily ensure the smooth operation of its LNG shipping business, and support regional clean energy transportation.
