    As of March 14, through the West-East Gas Pipeline Project, the main energy artery in China, PetroChina Tarim Oilfield in southern Xinjiang has supplied more than 300 billion cubic meters of gas to the central and eastern regions of China, equivalent to 1.
    5% of the country's total natural gas production in 2021.

    .


    Especially during the supply period last winter and this spring and winter, the daily output of natural gas in Tarim Oilfield climbed to a new high and remained at a high level of 100 million cubic meters.


    According to Tarim Oilfield estimates, 300 billion cubic meters of natural gas is equivalent to replacing 400 million tons of standard coal, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 426 million tons, benefiting about 400 million residents in more than 120 large and medium-sized cities in 15 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities including Beijing and Shanghai
    .

    In September 1998, the high-yield natural gas flow was obtained from the test of Well Kela 2 in the Tarim Oilfield, which marked the birth of the largest high-quality integrated gas field in China at that time, the Kela 2 gas field, and directly contributed to the landmark project of the western development—the West-East Gas Pipeline Construction of works
    .


    On October 1, 2004, the entire West-East Gas Pipeline Project was completed and put into operation, and the main energy artery that traverses the country from east to west was born, pushing China to enter the "natural gas age" in an all-round way


    As one of the main gas sources of the West-East Gas Pipeline, Tarim Oilfield always regards ensuring national energy security and stable gas supply as its primary task, and continues to advance to ultra-deep and complex fields, challenging world-class exploration and development such as ultra-deep, ultra-high temperature and ultra-high pressure.


    To solve the problem, we will make every effort to improve the natural gas supply guarantee capacity, and fully build a 30 billion cubic meter large gas area


    In addition, while making every effort to ensure the gas supply of the West-East Gas Pipeline, Tarim Oilfield has accelerated the promotion of "Western Gas Use" to drive the economic and social development of Xinjiang, especially the southern Xinjiang region
    .


    The No.
    1 PetroChina Aid to Xinjiang Project—Nanjiang Natural Gas Benefiting the People Project pipeline network has been extended to 3,035 kilometers, covering 42 counties and cities and 21 farming and animal husbandry farms in 5 prefectures in southern Xinjiang, with a cumulative gas supply of over 46.
    3 billion cubic meters.
