Sinopec is fully committed to promoting natural gas injection to ensure winter supply

This year, the natural gas branch has injected nearly 2.
8 billion cubic meters of gas into the gas storage depot

Early winter has arrived, and in the past few days, Sinopec has continued to promote gas storage capacity building and accelerate natural gas injection work
.
As of October 31, Sinopec Natural Gas Branch has injected nearly 2.
8 billion cubic meters of natural gas into nine gas storage reservoirs, including Wen96, Jintan, Wei11 and Wen23, with a peak shaving capacity of more than 15 million cubic meters per day, which can meet the gas demand of 30 million households for a day, and consolidate the resource foundation
for this winter and next spring.

According to reports, the upstream plate of Sinopec continued to increase reserves and production
.
Sinopec Southwest Petroleum Bureau planned ahead of time to ensure the supply of natural gas in winter, refined the task indicators, carried out investigation and rectification of hidden dangers in stations, pipelines and valve rooms for key links in high-load operation in winter, strengthened the operation safety of pipeline networks, and made every effort to ensure the safe and stable supply of
natural gas in winter.
Puguang Gas Field formulated natural gas production and marketing plans, emergency production increase measures, and emergency supply assurance measures in advance to ensure the stable production of old wells and the optimization of surface gathering and transportation to ensure the stable supply of natural gas; At the same time, we will accelerate the construction of new production capacity in the Laojun block and Tongnanba block, and strive to put into operation
4 new wells in the Laojun block by the end of the year.
Before the heating season, 59 new wells have been rushed to be built, 671 million cubic meters of new production capacity have been built, the daily gas supply has increased by 3.
1 million cubic meters, and the production speed and production contribution rate of new wells have been greatly improved
.

At the same time, Sinopec has scientifically and rationally raised resources to achieve "full storage"
.
Sinopec Natural Gas Branch closely monitors the trend of international liquefied natural gas (LNG) import prices, strengthens communication with resource parties, optimizes shipping schedules, makes every effort to ensure the smooth operation of the natural gas industry chain in the supply area, makes full use of third-party LNG receiving stations, and continuously improves resource guarantee capabilities.
In accordance with the principle of "should be stored as much as possible", we will make every effort to implement winter peak regulation and supply of resource reserves
.
Before the arrival of the heating season, 9 gas storage reservoirs such as Wen96, Huangchang, Jintan and Wen23 formed an effective working gas capacity of 2 billion cubic meters to ensure stable
gas supply during peak months.
In addition, the company also uses the storage tanks of Tianjin and Qingdao LNG receiving stations to reserve sufficient peak shaving resources to meet the peak shaving needs of the supply area market, and to ensure sufficient "bottom gas"
for natural gas peak shaving in North China this winter and next spring.

In addition, Sinopec is focusing on accelerating the construction of
gas storage facilities.
As a key part of the production, supply, storage and marketing system of natural gas upstream, midstream and downstream industries, gas storage facilities are crucial
to ensuring energy security and the "rice bowl" of the national economy and people's livelihood.
In recent years, Sinopec has accelerated its gas storage capacity building and built gas storage reservoirs
in many places across the country.
The company is also actively promoting the expansion of LNG terminals, among which Tianjin LNG terminals are steadily advancing the construction of storage tanks for the second phase of the project and improving gas storage capacity; The Qingdao LNG terminal is expected to put into operation the "No.
2 berth" by the end of the year, and the annual transfer capacity will increase from 7 million tons to 11 million tons, which will fully help the natural gas supply
in North China this winter and next spring.
