As turnaround was around the corner, the turnaround preparations were under final push. To ensure the orderly advancement toward successful turnaround, on October 16^th, the Company held 2018 turnaround/ revamp coordination meeting at Furui Hotel. Mr. Shen Chen, deputy director of Sinopec Engineering Department, and Mr. Hu Hongye, deputy general manager of FPCL attended the meeting.

Mr. Shen Chen recognized the Company's preparations for the turnaround. He said that all departments in FREP were coordinating to make early preparation, optimization and arrangement in detail, and laid a solid foundation for the turnaround. The preparations were carried out in an orderly and efficient manner, which was a model worth learning from.

Mr. Shen Chen emphasized that turnaround preparation was currently in critical moment. All units should strengthen communications and coordination, ensure resources in design, procurement, and construction in place, collect strength and greet turnaround with high standards. At the same time, he required firstly to make coordination and arrangement for the milestones to avoid delays, secondly to identify vulnerable points, take measures against high-risk operations, assign responsible persons, and ensure safe/ environmental turnaround; thirdly to seize the precious time before the turnaround, carry out field communication, and remove the obstacles in the schedule; fourthly to strictly work on product warehousing inspection as the first gate for turnaround quality control.

Mr. Shen Chen hoped FREP and contractors to make persistent efforts to realize turnaround targets of safety, quality and efficiency, and provide continuous force for high-quality development of FREP in the new period.

Mr. Hu Hongye commented that after more than two years of preparations, with the joint efforts of all parties, the turnaround work had been progressing smoothly, and the construction plans, training and equipment preparation have been set in place successively.
