CNOOC(SH:600938) 经济观察报·2025-12-17 13:40Core Viewpoint - The implementation of the Hainan Free Trade Port's closure operation is set to reshape the island's industrial logic, leading to a new Hainan characterized by higher technological content and a more solid industrial foundation [2][28]. Trade Policy Changes - Starting December 18, 2025, Hainan will officially implement a new trade policy characterized by "one line open, two lines controlled, and free circulation within the island" [2]. - The scope of "zero tariff" goods will expand from approximately 1,900 tax items to about 6,600 tax items, covering around 74% of all goods [3]. - The management of imported "zero tariff" goods will shift from a "positive list" to a "negative list" model, allowing for broader exemptions from tariffs unless specifically prohibited [4]. Agricultural Development - Hainan has long served as China's "natural greenhouse" for seed breeding, leveraging its unique tropical climate for accelerated breeding cycles [7]. - The establishment of the Hainan South Breeding Industry Group aims to enhance the province's seed industry development, having introduced over 25,600 tropical fruit and medicinal crop germplasm resources [8]. - The transition to a standardized, industrialized service model in agriculture is underway, supported by the new trade policies [9]. Logistics and Transportation - The launch of a cross-strait low-altitude drone logistics route significantly enhances logistics efficiency, reducing transport times from hours to minutes [11]. - Hainan's geographical characteristics make low-altitude logistics a necessity, with plans for further development in this area [12][13]. Commercial Aerospace - The completion of the first phase of the reusable rocket assembly and testing facility in Hainan marks a significant step in the commercial aerospace sector [14]. - The "zero tariff" policy is expected to lower procurement costs for high-tech manufacturing companies, enhancing Hainan's attractiveness for aerospace investments [15]. Marine Resources and Energy - The "Deep Sea No. 1" project, China's first ultra-deepwater gas field, has begun full production, significantly contributing to the country's energy capabilities [20][21]. - The successful operation of this gas field is part of a broader strategy to enhance Hainan's role in marine oil and gas production [24]. - Hainan is also transitioning towards clean energy, with a target to ban the sale of fuel vehicles by 2030, supported by a high percentage of clean energy installations [25][26]. Infrastructure Development - The launch of the Hainan 500 kV digital power grid marks a significant enhancement in the island's electricity transmission capacity [27]. - Ongoing infrastructure improvements are crucial for supporting the energy transition and ensuring stability in the power grid [27]. Conclusion - The closure operation is not merely about creating a shopping paradise but is set to transform Hainan into a hub of innovation and industrial development across various sectors [28].
