Sinopec Starts Production of Songnan Gas Field     

Sinopec Corp's Northeast Oil and Gas Co started output from its Songnan gas filed, in Qianguo county, Jilin province, on November 11th.
    Natural gas, through the Yaoyingtai-Bawu-Changchun pipeline, is being transported to supply cities including Changchun, Jilin and Siping to meet their demand for the cleaning fuel.
   The Songnan project costs RMB1.99 billion and is capable of producing 3 million cubic meters of natural gas a day, or 1 billion cubic meters a year. This project is set to ease supply situations in parts of Jilin province, which have suffered shortage in both industrial and residential sectors in the past. This also provides crucial energy support to help Jilin revitalize its old industrial manufacturing base.
