Introduction: 2019 is about to pass, and the natural gas industry has experienced ups and downs this year. Looking back to 2019, a lot of major events happened in the natural gas industry, such as the establishment of the state pipe network company and the ventilation of the natural gas pipeline (North Section) of the East China Russia line, which had a significant impact on the industry. Let’s review the major events in 2019.
1、 China’s first deepwater self operated gas field started construction
According to the news on January 10, the semi submersible production platform of Lingshui 17-2 gas field development project, China’s first deep-water self operated gas field, has recently started construction at the Qingdao manufacturing site of offshore oil engineering. The gas field is expected to be put into production as soon as the end of the 13th five year plan, with an annual production of about 3 billion to 3.5 billion cubic meters of natural gas. This will effectively promote the development of deep-water oil and gas resources in the South China Sea, and is of great significance to the construction of the South China Sea atmospheric area and the protection of China’s energy security.
2、 Notice of the development and Reform Commission on adjusting the price of natural gas benchmark stations
According to the information of the national development and Reform Commission on March 29, the national development and Reform Commission issued the notice on adjusting the price of natural gas base gate station, which decided to adjust the price of natural gas base gate station of each province (District, city) from April 1, 2019, with a minimum of 1030 yuan / thousand cubic meters (including 9% value-added tax). The combination of residential and non residential natural gas prices does not only mean the price increase, which is also the only way to reform the natural gas price in China, to ensure the healthy and orderly development of the natural gas market in China.
3、 ExxonMobil signs a 20-year supply agreement with China
ExxonMobil, the world’s largest non-governmental oil and gas producer, announced recently that it had signed a 20-year LNG supply agreement with China’s Zhejiang energy group, with a contract volume of 1 million tons / year, CNN reported on April 23. It is reported that about 1.4 billion cubic meters of 1 million tons of liquefied natural gas will be vaporized, which is equivalent to the current one-year consumption of Zhejiang civil gas, and can meet the existing natural gas users in Zhejiang. As the world’s largest non-governmental oil and gas producer, ExxonMobil is the industry leader in many aspects of energy and petrochemical industry. The re entry of us natural gas into the Chinese market will undoubtedly squeeze Australia’s share in the Chinese natural gas market. Combined with Australia’s attitude towards Huawei issues or international decision-making, China’s purchase of us natural gas has more advantages than disadvantages in general.
4、 Major changes in natural gas pricing

According to the news on June 14, in order to improve the utilization efficiency of oil and gas pipeline network facilities, promote the safe and stable supply of oil and gas, standardize the opening behavior of oil and gas pipeline network facilities, and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the operation enterprises and users of oil and gas pipeline network facilities, the national development and Reform Commission, the national energy administration and other four departments formulated the supervision measures for the fair opening of oil and gas pipeline network facilities, which was implemented on May 24. It is pointed out in the measures that after the opening of oil and gas pipeline network facilities, the calorific value quality of mixed transmission natural gas is different. Adopting energy measurement method is conducive to accurate measurement, fairness, reduction of settlement disputes, healthy development of natural gas industry and internationalization of China’s natural gas market. The implementation of energy measurement can ensure the accuracy of natural gas trade measurement to the greatest extent, reduce measurement trade disputes, and ensure the economic and social benefits of enterprises.
5、 Increasing the exploration and development of oil and gas in China to ensure the national energy security
On July 8, PetroChina and Sinopec signed a joint research framework agreement on Tarim Basin, Junggar Basin and Sichuan Basin, involving 81 exploration rights and a total area of about 305800 square kilometers. On July 10, Sinopec and CNOOC (China) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of CNOOC, signed a cooperation framework agreement on Bohai Bay, Beibu Bay, South Yellow Sea and Subei basin, involving 19 exploration rights of both sides and a total area of 26900 square kilometers. “Three barrels of oil” sign an agreement with each other, join hands with China’s oil and gas exploration, and allow foreign investment to enter China’s oil and gas exploration, which is conducive to promoting China’s oil and gas opening cooperation, increasing the intensity of oil and gas exploration and development, improving oil and gas exploration and development technology, and ensuring national energy security.
6、 The attack on Saudi oil fields has reduced the supply of natural gas by about 2 billion cubic meters
According to foreign media reports, Saudi Aramco was attacked by drones at around 8 a.m. Beijing time on September 14, resulting in a sharp reduction of 5.7 million barrels of special oil per day, close to 6% of the global oil production. Saudi energy minister Abdulaziz said on the 15th that the explosion of facilities on the 14th also reduced Saudi Arabia’s natural gas supply by about 2 billion cubic meters, resulting in Saudi Arabia’s ethane and liquefied natural gas Supply will shrink by 50%. But he said domestic supplies of fuel and water and electricity had not been affected.
7、 100 billion square gas field discovered in Tarim Oilfield
On October 3, the well test of Bozi 9 of Tarim Oilfield Company of PetroChina was successful, with high-yield industrial oil and gas flow, 418200 cubic meters of natural gas and 115.15 cubic meters of condensate per day. It has become another one hundred billion cubic meters gas field found in the south of Tianshan in one year, marking the substantial progress of the construction of the second trillion cubic meters atmospheric area in Tarim Oilfield. This indicates that substantial progress has been made in the construction of the second trillion square meter atmospheric area in Tarim Oilfield. The breakthrough of well Bozi 9 will not only add “bottom gas” for the construction of 30 million tons of large oil and gas fields in Tarim Oilfield, but also add new gas sources for the gas transmission from west to East and the gas consumption in South Xinjiang, so as to further guarantee the domestic natural gas supply.

8、 Crazy! LNG prices soared 23.7% in a single day
On October 30, the starting base price of Northwest feed gas auction was raised to 1.57 yuan / m3, and the final transaction price was 26-2.75 yuan / m3. The volume of registered orders in the auction was 100 million cubic meters, 80 million cubic meters less than that in the last time. Driven by the rising cost, the domestic LNG price rose sharply, nearly 1000 yuan rose overnight, and multiple terminals linked with the rise. The scope of this surge is almost national and large-scale, and it is also a large one-day increase in recent years. According to the data monitoring of the business association, the average price of LNG on October 30 was 3840 yuan / ton, and the average price on October 31 was 4750 yuan / ton, up nearly 1000 yuan per day, up 23.7%,
9、 China Russia east gas pipeline (North Section) officially put into operation for ventilation
On December 2, the natural gas pipeline (North Section) of the China Russia east line was officially put into operation for ventilation. The natural gas pipeline of the China Russia east line will be interconnected with the existing regional gas transmission network, which can stably supply 38 billion cubic meters of clean and high-quality natural gas resources to the northeast, Bohai rim and Yangtze River Delta every year, effectively improving and alleviating the air pollution along the line. After the official acceptance of Russian gas, Northeast China and Beijing Tianjin Hebei region will benefit directly.
