The city center is 150 kilometers away from the provincial capital Shenyang. The city governs Shuangtaizi and Xinglongtai districts and Panshan and Dawa counties. The regional area is 3959 square kilometers and the total population is 1.2 million. Panjin has unique geographical advantages. It is located in the connection zone between the central Liaoning urban agglomeration and the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan urban agglomeration. It is located at the junction of the Liaodong Peninsula Development Zone and the Western Liaoning Economic Development Zone. It is located at the fusion of the Northeast Economic Zone and the North China Economic Zone. It is located in Northeast Asia. The intersection of the economic circle and the Bohai Rim Economic Zone. This unique geographical advantage provides good opportunities and space for the development of Panjin.

Panjin’s underground is rich in oil, natural gas, well salt and other minerals. The cumulative proven oil geological reserves are 1.5 billion tons and the natural gas reserves are 150 billion cubic meters. Liaohe Oilfield, the third largest oil field in my country, is located here. It is also the largest special oil production base in the country and the fourth largest in the world. There are also 1.6 billion cubic meters of salt brine stored underground, which can provide abundant raw materials for the development of the salt chemical industry.

There are sufficient land resources within the territory. There are 130,000 hectares of cultivated land, including 110,000 hectares of paddy fields, with an annual output of 850 million kilograms of grain. It is an important commercial grain base and high-quality rice export base in Liaoning Province. There are 80,000 hectares of reed fields, with an annual output of 400,000 tons of reeds, the largest in the world. The base of papermaking raw materials and building materials raw materials accounts for more than half of the papermaking raw materials in Liaoning Province. There are also vast pastures suitable for the development of animal husbandry. The livestock carrying capacity can reach 27,000 mixed cattle. The grass quality is so good that after Chairman Mao Zedong returned from his visit to the Soviet Union, he "settled" 50 well-bred horses donated by Stalin to the Shishan Breeding Farm in the west of the territory.

The territory has 118 kilometers of coastline and 39,000 hectares of coastal beaches, which are suitable for shrimp and shellfish breeding and have good conditions for the development of aquaculture. Erjiegou clams, which turn into sea at high tide and land at low tide

Seeing things and thinking about people can give rise to thousands of emotions.

Rich natural resources and beautiful natural landscapes make Panjin the "Golden Triangle" of Liaohe River.

Panjin City is a provincial municipality established in 1984 with the approval of the State Council. It is an emerging coastal open city rich in rice and petrochemicals as its leading products.

The development and construction of Panjin has generally gone through three stages. The first stage is agricultural development. Since the 1950s, the country has established a group of state-owned farms here, turning the former "Southern Wilderness of the Northeast" into a land of plenty in the "Northern Country and the South". The second phase is industrial development. Starting in the late 1960s, the oil army went to Panjin to explore and develop oil and gas resources. The development and construction of oil fields drove Panjin's economic structure to achieve a historic leap, and modern industry began to start and revitalize in Panjin. The third stage is comprehensive development. Since the reform and opening up, especially after the establishment of the city, Panjin has strived to turn its resource advantages into economic advantages and entered a new historical period of comprehensively building a new petrochemical city.

After the establishment of the city, the city has continuously deepened its understanding of the market conditions. Based on the city’s resource advantages in oil and gas, paddy fields, tidal flats, reeds and grasslands, the municipal party committee and government proposed the development of "oil and water" "Economy", "oil" refers to the development of processing and deep processing of oil and gas resources; "water" refers to the comprehensive management, development and utilization of water to improve the comprehensive utilization rate of water resources. Based on this idea, agriculture has proposed the construction of "five-color agricultural projects", namely, green projects based on rice and reeds, blue projects based on aquaculture, white projects based on greenhouse vegetables, and cattle breeding. The main yellow project is mainly fruit cultivation, and the red project is mainly fruit cultivation. In the industry, it is proposed to accelerate the formation of an industrial pattern of "oil and gas head, chemical industry body, and light textile tail". Before Panjin was established as a city, its industrial foundation was weak, with an annual output value of only 1.07 million yuan.

Until the late 1960s, due to the establishment of Liaohe Oilfield, Panjin's industry developed rapidly. A number of large and medium-sized backbone enterprises such as asphalt plants, thermal power plants, and fertilizer plants have been built successively, initially forming a unique petrochemical industry system with relatively complete categories, laying the foundation for Panjin to build a new petrochemical city. Since the city was founded in 1984, three industrial zones, namely Tianhe, Bohai and Xinglong, have been initially built. The number of petrochemical industry enterprises has grown to more than 100. Among the 500 largest companies in the country, Panjin already has two large petrochemical companies, Liaohe Oilfield and Liaohe Chemical Group, among them. While focusing on adjusting the industrial structure, we will also intensify efforts to adjust the product structure. More than 250 new products including polyethylene, polypropylene, styrene, polystyrene, formaldehyde, and mixed methylamine have been developed.

The city’s total industrial output value reached more than 16.6 billion yuan in 1998. The petrochemical industry has become the leading industry in the city. The total industrial output value of Panjin's chemical enterprises above the county level is second only to Dalian City, ranking second in the province.

In agriculture, an industrialized pattern has been formed. After the founding of New China, the development goal of building Panjin into a commercial grain base and a reed production base was established. After the establishment of the city, in accordance with the direction of "two highs and one excellence", we will focus on the word "water" to develop characteristic agriculture, ecological agriculture, and efficient agriculture. Making full use of the opportunity of the country's listing of the Liaohe River Delta as a key agricultural development area, we increased investment and development efforts in large and small deltas within the territory, built a 26.3-kilometer-long sea embankment, and reclaimed 30,000 hectares of land from the sea, making the former tidal The high and low tide beaches have become another new area of ????rural economy. At the same time, we vigorously carried out the construction of the "Five Color Project" and the "Water Panjin" to develop three-dimensional ecological agriculture. On the basis of making full use of the existing tidal flats and water surface resources and vigorously developing the aquaculture industry focusing on river crabs, freshwater fish, shrimps and shellfish, the city has also developed crab farming in rice fields and reed fields in a large area, and carried out three-dimensional agriculture. Development, changing "one water and one water harvest" to "one water and two water harvests", greatly increasing the income level per unit area. The city's marine and freshwater aquaculture area has reached 50,000 hectares, the annual output of aquatic products exceeds 120,000 tons, and the total output value has exceeded the total grain output value, achieving the goal of "rebuilding a Panjin agriculture". In 1998, the city's total agricultural output value reached 5.1 billion yuan.

While developing efficient agriculture through industrialization, it has successfully explored the development of ecological agriculture. The "four-step purification, five-step utilization" ecological model of Xi'an Ecological Breeding Farm in Dawa County has been adopted by the National Agriculture The Ministry of Agriculture has identified it as “a typical model for the construction of similar pig farms across the country” and has been listed as one of the “Global 500 Best” by the United Nations Environment Program. At present, Panjin has been listed as an ecological agriculture pilot city by the state, and Panshan and Dawa counties have also been listed as ecological agriculture pilot counties by relevant national departments.

After the reform and opening up, the city's economy and various social undertakings have developed vigorously and achieved brilliant results, making Panjin the smallest city in Liaoning (only 2.68% of the province's total area) , a small city with the smallest population (accounting for 3% of the total population of the province), a short time of establishment (only 15 years), and a weak economic foundation (ranked second in the province when the city was founded), has become a strong city in the province. One of the cities. By the end of 1998, the GDP had reached 23.26 billion yuan, ranking fourth among the 14 cities in the province in terms of absolute GDP (the top three were Shenyang, Dalian, and Anshan); the per capita GDP was 20,000 yuan, It ranks first among the cities in the province and ranks 5th among the 55 cities in the country with a per capita GDP exceeding 10,000 yuan. The living standards of urban and rural people have improved significantly. The per capita disposable income of urban residents is 6,050 yuan, and the per capita net income in rural areas is 3,470 yuan, ranking second and first in the province respectively. It is one of the 36 cities in the country that took the lead in entering the ranks of moderately prosperous people.

After 50 years of struggle, the people of Panjin have achieved today’s glory. Now, the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government are planning a brighter future for Panjin from the strategic perspective of sustainable development. It is believed that millions of Panjin people will continue to build Panjin into a coastal open city, a modern industrial city, and a green ecological city. We strive to build a civilized and hygienic city.
