China Oil and Gas Sector Report 2017/2021

As the world’s most populous country with a fast-expanding economy, China is a major energy consumer. The country was the second-largest consumer of crude oil and the third biggest consumer of natural gas in 2016. China is also a significant energy supplier, ranking as the sixth-biggest producer of natural gas and the seventh biggest producer of crude oil in the world. China’s oil and gas sector is still largely controlled by the government although a partial liberalisation has been under way, a move the authorities hope will increase labour and capital resource efficiency. Clean energy, such as natural gas and non-petrochemical energy, offers sustainable potential for investment. The subsector will dominate the country's newly added energy supply by 2030, according to the CNPC Economics and Technology Research Institute. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) offers ample opportunities for growth, with the government encouraging the development of natural gas vehicles (NGV).
