On December 26, the “”Genting IINo. 2”” open-type Hard Rock Tunnel Boring Machine hard rock boring machine (TBM) in for the Genting Tunnel of the China-Malaysia East Railway CCCC ECRL Project completed an excavation length of broke through 5,000 meters.

In the “Building high-quality products, ensuring safety, lifting an upsurge of civil construction” labor competition in the second half of year second half of the year “create quality, ensure safety, civil construction climax” labor competition, with the year-end comprehensive assessment as the work goal, many times Division 7 of the project  organized management personnel and site operators to carry out a several three-level technical disclosures of special safety construction plan of the three-level technical presentation, and by holding through safety emergency drills, meetings on tunnel quality common disease prevention and control for tunnel quality and other special meetings, to it predicted the unexpected situation in site construction. , Prepare prepared special construction technologies and materials in advance to ensure the smooth passage of Genting Tunnel through F1 fault, and ensure the safe, efficient and stable progress of site construction.

“Genting No. 2” TBM completed an excavation length of 4,480.21m in 2023 in total drilling footage of 4,480.21 meters, the with an average monthly excavation length footage of 373.35 meters. In 2024, Genting Tunnel TBM will still face difficult challenges such as counter-slope reverse slope drainage, high terrestrial heat geothermal, long- distance ventilation, bad geological disaster sections, and cross-construction of multiple working faces, but the project construction team will strive to successfully complete the tasks with more greater enthusiasm and efficient management and professional team.
