In recent years, although capital investment has been steady, it is gradually slowing down due to the US-China trade friction and other unfortunate factors. On the other hand, crude oil prices are also on the rise showing bright market prospects. In this challenging time of rapid change we strive to fulfill our mission in becoming “World Leading Technology” pioneers while continuing to meet our customers’ needs.
