4 billion cubic meters of natural gas can be used by 22 million households, and Shandong and North China will benefit first.
Papua New Guinea Minister of Oil and Energy Du Ban, Vice President of ExxonMobil Company and President of Natural Gas and Power Marketing Company Franklin, and Senior Vice President of China Petrochemical Co., Ltd. Wang Zhigang attended the ceremony of the first ship's commercial gas arrival in Hong Kong and delivered speeches.
At present, China Petrochemical has been approved by the National Development and Reform Commission, and LNG receiving station projects are also under construction in Guangxi and Tianjin. Wenzhou LNG receiving station project and Jiangsu LNG receiving station project are carrying out preliminary work.
China Petrochemical Company will introduce LNG on a larger scale in the future, which will further broaden the natural gas supply channels in China, and is an important measure to ensure domestic energy supply and meet the rapidly growing natural gas consumption demand in China. It is of great significance to further optimize China's energy consumption structure, increase the proportion of natural gas consumption in primary energy consumption and build a green, low-carbon and environment-friendly society.
The commissioning of Shandong LNG project is an important measure for China Petrochemical to implement the green and low-carbon development strategy. It also plays an important role in implementing the strategy of "Gasification of Shandong" in cooperation with Shandong Province, optimizing and adjusting the energy structure, realizing energy conservation and emission reduction, improving environmental quality and promoting local economic and social development.
Shandong LNG project is organized and constructed by China Petrochemical Natural Gas Branch, located in dongjiakou Port, a national new district-Qingdao West Coast New District. The construction content includes three parts: receiving station, wharf project and export pipeline project. The project was approved by the National Development and Reform Commission in July 20 10, and the foundation stone was laid in September 20 10. The project officially broke ground in June 20 1 10, was handed over in September 20 14, and was put into production in February. After the first phase of the project is put into production, it can transport 3 million tons of clean energy to Shandong Peninsula and even North China every year, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 4.8 million tons every year, which is equivalent to planting nearly 44 million trees and stopping driving nearly 3.2 million economical cars for one year. Used for power generation, reducing sulfur dioxide emissions by 520,000 tons compared with the same period last year. On the basis of putting the first phase of the project into production, the annual production capacity of the next two phases will reach100000 tons.
Shandong LNG project is independently designed, purchased, constructed and managed by China Petrochemical Company, and has made important breakthroughs in wharf design and construction, receiving station design, tank manufacturing and jacking, process evaluation, and localization of main equipment and materials. In the construction of storage tanks, a unique foundation structure is adopted, which has better seismic performance than common pile foundations. The construction progress was accelerated by more than 50%, and the project cost was reduced by about 20%. The "continuous pouring technology of upper surface mould" was pioneered in China, which improved the pouring quality of large dome concrete. For the first time, the localization of prestressed system was realized on LNG storage tank. In addition, in order to make full use of light hydrocarbon resources in LNG feed gas, Shandong LNG Project designed and built the first domestic light hydrocarbon recovery device, which provided a new production, operation and profit model for the development of domestic LNG receiving stations.
This resource comes from ExxonMobil's liquefied natural gas project in Papua New Guinea, and the resource supplier is Papua New Guinea. In addition, in 20 1 1 year, China Petrochemical signed an LNG purchase and sale agreement with Australian Pacific LNG Co., Ltd. (APLNG) twice. From 20 15, 7.6 million tons of LNG will be purchased from APLNG every year until 2035. At the same time, holding APLNG.

LNG is the process of cooling gaseous natural gas to minus 162 degrees Celsius under normal pressure and condensing it into liquid. Liquefied natural gas can greatly save storage and transportation space and cost, and has the characteristics of large calorific value and high performance. As a clean fuel, it can be used by urban residents, and as a substitute for automobile fuel, it has the characteristics of safety, convenience, quickness and little pollution. For example, the contents of nitrogen dioxide and carbon dioxide in the tail gas of LNG buses can be reduced by 98% and 30% respectively.
In the next step, Shandong LNG receiving station of China Petrochemical Natural Gas Company will debug the LNG light hydrocarbon recovery device, and further improve the gas transportation modes such as gasification transportation and tanker transportation, continuously export clean energy, and play a unique leading role in environmental protection and social service.
