Sinopec Beihai LNG Co., Ltd. was established in 2012. In 2016, Sinopec Beihai LNG receiving terminal began commercial operations, with the first phase having an annual handling capacity of 3 million tons. CNOOC Guangdong Eastern LNG Co., Ltd. was established in December 2002. The receiving terminal came online in May 2017, and its current handling capacity is 2 million tons per year. CNOOC Tianjin LNG Co., Ltd. was established in March 2013. The CNOOC Tianjin LNG project is located in the Nanzhan Port Area of Tianjin Port; it is China’s first floating LNG project and a key project for piloting floating technologies for clean energy. Its annual unloading capacity is 3 million tons.
A gas storage facility, Sinopec Zhongyuan Gas Storage Co., Ltd. Sinopec Zhongyuan Gas Storage Co., Ltd. was established on August 12, 2015, and is primarily responsible for the construction and operation of the Wen23 gas storage facility. The total storage capacity of Storage Facility 23 is 10.4 billion cubic meters. It is currently the largest natural gas storage facility in eastern China in terms of storage capacity, highest operating gas volume, and strongest peak-shaving capability. It undertakes the tasks of emergency peak-shaving and ensuring a stable supply of natural gas in North China, and it provides services and support for the smooth operation of various long-distance pipelines such as the Yuji Pipeline, Zhongkai Pipeline, and E’an-Cang Pipeline.
There are 17 pipeline companies, 8 of which belong to CNPC. These are: CNPC Pipeline Co., Ltd., China National Petroleum Corporation Beijing Oil and Gas Regulation Center, CNPC Pipeline Branch, CNPC West-East Gas Transmission Pipeline Branch, CNPC Beijing Natural Gas Pipeline Co., Ltd., CNPC Western Pipeline Company, CNPC Southwest Pipeline Branch, and China National Petroleum Corporation Pipeline Engineering Co., Ltd. 7 companies from Sinopec are as follows: Sinopec Pipeline Storage and Transportation Co., Ltd., Sinopec Sichuan-Guangdong Gas Pipeline Co., Ltd., Sinopec Xinjiang Coal-to-Gas Pipeline Co., Ltd., Sinopec Yuzhou-Jiexi Pipeline Co., Ltd., Sinopec Hebei JianTou Natural Gas Co., Ltd., Sinopec Natural Gas Branch Qingning Gas Pipeline Company, and Sinopec Tianjin Natural Gas Pipeline Co., Ltd.

To date, a total of 26 gas storage facilities have been built nationwide, with 14 more under construction or planned for construction. In line with the **overall strategic plan, China will develop four regional gas storage clusters that are interconnected: the Northeast Gas Storage Cluster, the North China Gas Storage Cluster, the Middle and Lower Yangtze River Gas Storage Cluster, and the Pearl River Delta Gas Storage Cluster. Looking ahead to 2020, **over 30 underground gas storage facilities will be built, with a total capacity to regulate peak demand of 320×108 m³.
To date, a total of 22 LNG receiving stations have been built nationwide, 14 are under construction, and 15 are planned to be built. At present, the total receiving capacity of existing and under-construction LNG receiving stations in our country is approximately 100 million tons per year. It is expected that during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, there will still be significant room for expansion in the scale of LNG receiving stations in China. If each berth is considered to handle 3 million to 5 million tons per year, the Bohai Rim region will gain an additional import capacity for LNG of 48 million to 90 million tons per year. Together with the layout of LNG terminals in the Yangtze River Delta and the southeast coastal areas, China will see an additional LNG handling capacity of over 100 million tons per year in the future. Taking into account existing, under-construction, planned projects, as well as expansion plans for new and existing facilities, China’s LNG supply capacity is expected to reach 150 million to 190 million tons per year over the next 5 to 10 years.
