Under ICAO Annex 6 (Part 1, Attach C - ref sections 5 & 6.2), which the regulator in the jurisdiction in which the airline's AOC is held should have encoded somewhere in their regs (even if the airline is Chinese?), the operator is responsible for establishing net take-off performance calculations for obstacle clearance and EO performance calculations and a logical extension of this are EOSID SOPs - which include published instructions with or without charts.

Your airline should do this for every port that you fly into - and as A2 has pointed out - for every aircraft type/config.

And it seems sensible to say that you shouldn't really be looking for examples from other operators (even if nominally same aircraft) - because different configs/FMS and operator SOPs may all result in a different outcome should someone else's procedure be used.
[For example, I've seen many different EOSIDs for say SYD, from different operators and for different aircraft. They were all presented differently and some had charts and some didn't. Others had only different breakout points, performance statuses & consequent actions (sometimes including flight paths or HDGs/ALTs). Two of the EOSIDs were essentially for the same aircraft, but from different operators.]

I can't remember what's in EU-OPS (for the European destinations) with regard to these requirements, but it's quite likely that there are relevant requirements stated in that doc too.
