HOUSTON, May 7 (Xinhua) -- Interacting with the world's leading companies is key to maintaining competitiveness in deep water equipment manufacturing industry, a Chinese company leader said Tuesday in Houston, Texas, the United States.

Yu Ya, a senior executive of China International Marine Containers (Group) Ltd. (CIMC), made the remarks at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) that kicked off in Houston on Monday.

Interviewed by Xinhua, Yu said deep water equipment industry is very international and the global supply chain of the industry needs strong interactivity. "The interactivity is vital for us to be competitive in the global market."

Participating in OTC for 15 consecutive years, CIMC has grown from a follower to a company with independent R&D capabilities.

"Many of our industrial chain and innovation chain partners have been participating in OTC. Only if we keep pace with the development of the industry and create interactivity with advanced companies can we transform from a follower to a leader," Yu said.

Chinese participants in the event include state-run leading companies such as China National Offshore Oil Corp. and China National Petroleum Corp., as well as private enterprises from across the country.
