China’s third coal-to-natural gas project has been approved by the National Development and Reform Commission
Thread Content
This is the third coal-to-natural gas project approved by the National Development and Reform Commission. It seems that there is still support for coal-to-natural gas projects; we too need to prepare to undertake such projects. According to preliminary investigations, there are over 20 coal-to-natural gas projects in China, with a production capacity of nearly 100 billion cubic meters per year. Can the market handle such a large volume? Regarding the future development of coal-to-natural gas, I personally believe that **interference will surely occur, leading to a repeat of the path taken with coal-to-oil; what are others’ opinions? The Datang Fuxin coal-to-natural gas project in Liaoning was approved by the **National Development and Reform Commission. 2010-03-08 16:50:57 Views: 26 Comments: 0 Font size: Large Medium Small 2010-3-8 In early March 2010, the Datang Fuxin coal-to-synthetic natural gas (SNG) project received approval from the **National Development and Reform Commission. This is the second coal-to-natural gas project approved by Datang Group, and it is also the third coal-to-natural gas project to receive official approval from the National Development and Reform Commission to date. The Datang Fuxin SNG project is planned to have a total investment of 25.7 billion yuan, with a designed capacity of 4 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year and 12 million cubic meters per day. The project is located in Fuxin, Liaoning, and the synthetic natural gas produced there will be used as fuel in cities such as Shenyang. On August 30, 2009, China’s first large-scale coal-to-natural gas demonstration project approved by ** – the Datang International Keshiketeng Coal-to-Natural Gas Project and its pipeline system – began construction in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia. Upon reaching full capacity in 2012, it will be able to supply 4 billion cubic meters of natural gas to Beijing each year, effectively meeting the capital’s growing energy needs and ensuring a stable supply. In December 2009, China’s first coal-to-natural gas project funded by a private enterprise – the Inner Mongolia HuiNeng Project – was approved by the National Development and Reform Commission. The total investment in this project was 8.87 billion yuan; it was designed to produce 1.6 billion cubic meters of synthetic natural gas per year, and it is located in Yijinhuoluo Banner, Ordos City, Inner Mongolia. According to data from Yaha Consulting, in 2009, China’s natural gas production was 83 billion cubic meters, with a net import volume of 4.5 billion cubic meters. It is estimated that by 2015, China will have a coal-to-natural gas production capacity of 20 billion cubic meters per year, accounting for about 10% of total consumption. Yahua Consulting believes that by realizing the demonstration and commercial operation of coal-to-natural gas projects, a relatively cheap and reliable source of natural gas supply can be provided for the domestic market, which will also help enhance China’s bargaining power in the international market when importing natural gas.
**How to regulate to promote the healthier development of coal-to-gas projects
Tencent’s influence is really strong; a total of three approvals were given, and it got two of them, hehe.
There are so many coal-to-natural gas projects planned for the future, and it is likely that **not all of them will be approved**. Otherwise, we’ll face overcapacity

Similar to what was mentioned in post No. 3, in terms of capacity, Datang is more dominant; a total of 9.6 billion cubic meters was approved, with Datang accounting for 8 billion cubic meters! Going back to floor 4: there will be no overcapacity in natural gas production. Although the current overall shortage of natural gas is not significant, the potential shortage is quite large. As with methanol, the issues related to overcapacity are most controversial; concerns also include energy efficiency and pipeline transportation problems.
Whether it’s right or wrong will depend on future developments, after all, energy is a **strategic lifeline!

It depends on whether the Tang Dynasty project can get off the ground; it is said that the Dorun project is almost considered a abandoned project
I heard you started driving; I don’t know what the outcome will be.
It’s still planned in an orderly manner, but people rush in all at once – when will this end?
When was Xinjiang Qinghua SNG approved? Bidding has already started now
