On January 27, 2026, Hangyang Group announced a heavyweight victory - successfully winning the bid for the supporting nitrogen production equipment project of a 10 million ton oil refinery in West Africa of China Chemical Engineering International Corporation, marking a successful start to overseas business with a contract amount of 6 billion US dollars and setting a new record for the single export scale of air separation equipment in China.

As the largest refining project in West Africa so far, the project processes 10 million tons of crude oil annually, which is the core project of China Africa "the Belt and Road" energy cooperation. Hangyang, with decades of experience in air separation technology, has broken through overseas technological barriers and provided customized solutions covering design, manufacturing, and installation throughout the entire chain. Its equipment will run through core processes such as catalysis and hydrogenation in refineries, completely solving the bottleneck problem of local industrial gas supply and helping West Africa achieve a leapfrog improvement in its ability to ensure energy independence.

This cooperation is a milestone practice of Hangyang's "going global, going up" strategy. By deeply integrating into the Chinese chemical industry chain ecosystem, the two sides have established an integrated cooperation model of "engineering general contracting+equipment supply+operation and maintenance services", which not only lays a solid foundation for Hangyang to explore emerging markets in Africa, but also sets a new benchmark for high-end manufacturing cooperation between China and Africa with its hardcore technology strength, promoting the leap of "Chinese intelligent manufacturing" to the mid to high end of the global value chain.Editor/Bian Wenjun
