Background

Dalian LNG Terminal is an LNG terminal in Liaoning, China.[3]

The construction of Dalian LNG terminal began in 2008[4] and was operational since 2011. Dalian LNG' sources are mainly from Qatar, Australia and Iran and after regasification is sent for use in northeastern China.[5] In late 2016, PetroChina began testing a new storage tank which could double its receiving capacity to 6 million tonnes per year.[6]

In March 2018 it was reported that the terminal's capacity is now 10 mtpa.[7]

In Dec 2020, PipeChina took over the 75% shares of Dalian LNG Terminal which was originally belonging to CNPC, becoming the major shareholder of it.[8]

The global research and consultancy group Wood Mackenzie disclosed that the utilization rate of the Dalian LNG Terminal was a mere 22% in 2022 and, as of September 2023, the terminal's utilisation rate was 16% year-to-date in 2023. WoodMac attributed this to increased flows of gas into the region from the Power of Siberia Gas Pipeline.[9]

Ownership change

In February 9, 2019, the National Petroleum and Natural Gas Pipeline Group Co., Ltd. (PipeChina) was established with a major focus on the investment and construction of the long-distance oil and gas pipeline network and storage & peaking facilities, offering fair and open oil and gas pipeline transmission services. [10]10 existing and under-construction LNG terminals were reportedly transferred or are going to transfer their ownerships to PipeChina.[11] Dalian LNG terminal is one of them.
