Changfeng Energy Completes Trial Run of LNG Shipment from Canada to the PRC
- Written by ACN Newswire
According to the recent energy reform policies of the PRC government, the PRC is shifting away from a coal-based economy and is increasingly relying on natural gas as the source of energy consumption. In particular, Changfeng's management has observed that, in the winter months due to higher demand for natural gas required for heating in the PRC, the available supply of natural gas may be lower and trucked LNG prices may increase. Based on Wood Mackenzie Ltd.'s estimates, trucks carried approximately 19 million tons of LNG to customers last year, accounting for 12 percent of the PRC's total LNG consumption. Further, unlike the market price of pipeline gas, which is regulated by the PRC government, LNG prices are relatively deregulated and market-oriented. Accordingly, the Group has been seeking to broaden its supply base beyond that of the PRC, to sources such as Canada, in order to benefit from opportunities in respect of LNG supply. As a Canadian listed energy company operating in the PRC, the Group recognizes the potential synergy of Sino-Canadian energy trading and natural gas supply, and has taken steps such as the aforementioned trial run LNG shipment to strategically position the Group to seize such opportunities.
