With the strategy of upgrading the system, Southern Holdings Group (Hainan) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Southern Holdings") officially announced that it will fully launch national oil and gas transportation business in 2026. Relying on policy innovation and digital technology of Hainan Free Trade Port, it will build an intelligent logistics network covering all types of energy such as crude oil, refined oil, LNG, etc., to help improve the quality and efficiency of the energy supply chain and promote low-carbon transformation.
1、 Empowering policies for free trade ports and opening up a "green channel" for energy transportation
The "zero tariff, simplified tax system" policy of Hainan Free Trade Port provides core support for Southern Holdings' oil and gas transportation business.
The company has implemented the pilot policy of "cross regional direct supply of bonded oil products" in Yangpu Bonded Port Area, realizing the full chain bonded circulation of oil and gas products from import, warehousing to cross provincial transportation, and reducing comprehensive logistics costs by 20%.
At the same time, the reform of the "one order system" for cross-border transportation in Hainan Free Trade Port has greatly simplified the customs clearance process, combined with the "release first, inspection later" regulatory model, which has increased the efficiency of oil and gas transportation by 35%, laying the foundation for enterprises to build an efficient transportation system of "Hainan hub national trunk line regional distribution".
2、 Upgrading infrastructure and building a three-dimensional network of "sea land air traffic control"
Regional Distribution Center: Layout three major hubs in the Yangtze River Delta (Ningbo), Pearl River Delta (Guangzhou), and Southwest (Chongqing), forming a delivery capacity of 48 hours to key cities;
3、 Smart logistics platform drives the full process digital transformation
The company has independently developed the "Nanneng Chain" digital logistics platform, which integrates functions such as order management, dynamic routing planning, and in transit monitoring. Through IoT technology, it tracks the real-time transportation status of oil tankers, ships, and pipelines, ensuring temperature control and safety warning throughout the entire process.
The platform is integrated with the blockchain public service system of Hainan Free Trade Port, realizing the integration of "bill of lading, warehouse receipt, and waybill". Customers can query the location, quality data, and carbon emission information of goods in real time through their mobile phones, and the transparency of services has been improved by 90%.
4、 Green and low-carbon practices lead the industry towards sustainable development
Southern Holdings will integrate green genes throughout the entire shipping process:
Clean transportation capacity: The first batch of 200 LNG powered heavy-duty trucks and 2 dual fuel hybrid ships will be deployed, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 30% compared to traditional diesel vehicles and ships;
Circular packaging: Promote reusable LNG tank containers to reduce disposable packaging waste by 80%;
Carbon Footprint Management: In collaboration with the Shanghai Environment and Energy Exchange, we have launched the first national carbon accounting system for oil and gas transportation, providing customers with a one-stop service of "transportation+carbon neutrality". It is expected to reduce carbon emissions by 150000 tons by 2026.
5、 Deepening strategic cooperation to safeguard energy supply chain security
The company has partnered with leading enterprises such as the National Pipeline Network Group and Sinochem Energy to establish an emergency support alliance for oil and gas transportation. It has set up 20 strategic reserve nodes in South China, East China and other regions, with a reserve capacity of over 500000 tons, which can cope with extreme weather and sudden demand fluctuations.
At the same time, South Holdings cooperated with the People's Insurance Company of China to launch customized energy transportation insurance, covering 12 types of risks such as leakage and fire, and the protection rate of customer rights and interests was increased to 100%.
Future outlook: Building a billion dollar energy logistics ecosystem
Southern Holdings plans to build a smart logistics network covering 31 provinces and cities across the country by 2027, and explore cross-border energy digital logistics services through the pilot of the "International Data Port" at Hainan Free Trade Port.
By 2030, the company aims to achieve an annual transportation volume of over 20 million tons in its oil and gas transportation business, serving over 5000 enterprises and with an asset scale of 80 billion yuan, becoming a leading comprehensive service provider in China that combines energy transportation, digital technology, and green finance.
