China National Offshore Oil Corporation announced on Friday that the world's largest DP shuttle tanker, NS Pioneer, independently designed and built in China, was officially delivered in Dalian.

With completely independent intellectual property rights, the NS Pioneer is an oil tanker designed for the Chinese share of the world's largest deep-water oil and gas fields, Buzios and Mero, in Brazil.

The average operating water depth of Brazil's ultra-deep-water oil fields is about 2,000 meters. The climate in the area is unstable with high winds and waves and harsh environmental conditions, which requires extremely high-power positioning capabilities for oil tankers engaged in oil transportation operations.
CNOOC will become the first Chinese company to operate DP oil tankers in both international and domestic waters, while the company will continue increasing reserves and boosting production, providing stronger guarantees for national energy security and the construction of a maritime power, it said.
