Recently, Liaoning Province introduced the "14th Five-Year Plan" for the development of the marine economy, the planning period from 2021 to 2025, looking forward to 2035. The plan proposes to accelerate the high-end, green and intelligent transformation and upgrading of the shipbuilding and offshore equipment manufacturing industry. It is also mentioned that the development and construction of civil marine nuclear power platforms will be carried out.

      The plan specifies that by 2025, Liaoning province's gross marine product will exceed 450 billion yuan, accounting for more than 14% of the province's gross regional product. High-end equipment manufacturing technology independent innovation capacity to reach the international advanced level, the construction of a number of provincial-level science and technology innovation platforms related to the sea and so on.
       The plan mentions that it will vigorously develop the transformation and upgrading of industries such as the shipbuilding industry and marine engineering equipment manufacturing, strive to become a leading national ship and offshore equipment industry base, promote the development of high-tech ships and marine engineering equipment to the deep sea and polar waters, and cultivate the formation of internationally competitive ship and marine engineering equipment industry clusters.
      The plan points out that the industrial layout and product structure will be optimized to form a complete chain, complete support, distinctive large ships and offshore equipment manufacturing industry clusters and small and medium-sized ship offshore manufacturing and supporting industry clusters.
      Around the bulk carrier, container ships, oil tankers and other mainstream ship type, strengthen energy saving, environmental friendly, safe, intelligent ship design, encourage the development of hydrogen ships, focus on the development of large LNG carriers, large ethane transport ships, LNG refueling ships and small and medium-sized gas carriers and other high-tech ships, as well as large and medium-sized engineering ships, high-performance law enforcement vessels, unmanned ships, scientific research vessels and other special ships.
      Consolidate and enhance the marine diesel engine, propulsion, marine crankshaft, valves and other advantageous supporting products.
    Promote the high-end development of marine engineering equipment manufacturing, enhance independent design, system integration, turnkey engineering capabilities, the development of jack-up and semi-submersible drilling platforms, floating production and storage devices, deepwater marine engineering equipment mooring systems and complete sets of equipment and other major offshore equipment, expand deep-sea large-scale aquaculture, freezing, processing, recreational fishing and other fishing facilities and equipment, the development and construction of civilian marine nuclear power platform, to develop and build. Foster the growth of underwater robots, underwater intelligent equipment, deep water exploration and other new marine equipment research and development and production scale, and strengthen the marine integrated platform and large cruise ship technology reserves. Strengthen the research and development and production of marine anti-corrosion materials, high-strength extra-thick rack steel for marine engineering, seamless steel pipes for oil drilling, special welding wires for marine platforms, high-quality corrosion-resistant stainless steel composite ship plates for oil tankers, etc.
