Research on Policy Suggestions for Oil and Gas Recovery in Port Oil and Gas Chemical Terminal

The transportation industry is a forerunner of social and economic development and has always been an active green and ecological development practitioner. Jiangsu Province is a major port province. In 2023, the cumulative cargo throughput of Jiangsu ports has reached 3.51 billion tons, accounting for 20.67% of the total port throughput of the country. The overall development of China’s port volatile organic compounds (VOCs) governance industry is still in the early stage, and most port enterprises in Jiangsu Province have not established a sound VOCs monitoring and regulatory system. Therefore, it is of great importance to carry out research on the regulatory countermeasures of VOCs emission in Jiangsu port for the green development of transportation in China and Jiangsu Province. The research results show that there are some problems in Jiangsu oil and gas chemical terminals, such as insufficient supporting policies for oil and gas recovery, non-standard operation mode of oil and gas recovery, high investment in oil and gas recovery construction, low enthusiasm of port and shipping enterprises in construction, low utilization rate of oil and gas recovery facilities, insufficient front space of built terminals, and oil and gas recovery technology maturity and safety need to be improved. Therefore, it is proposed to strengthen the management of the whole process of oil and gas recovery construction in new terminals, strictly implement the management measures of oil and gas recovery in terminals, and strengthen the regular detection of VOC emission concentration.
