Cnooc's Zhuhai Terminal Sets Record

Cnooc Gas and Power’s Zhuhai LNG terminal unloaded and processed record 2.33mn metric tons of LNG in 2018, up 44.7% year-on-year, it said January 3.

The terminal, located in China’s Guangdong province, has a capacity of 3.5mn mt/yr and supplies gas to cities of Guangzhou, Foshan, Zhuhai, Zhongshan and Jiangmen. The terminal received its first cargo of LNG in October 2013. Cnooc Gas and Power, a unit of state-owned Cnooc, has proposed to double the terminal’s capacity.

Cnooc Gas and Power operates nine LNG import terminals at Tianjin, Shanghai, Ningbo, Putian, Yuedong, Dapeng, Zhuhai, Hainan and Shenzhen. The company has started work  on its 10th terminal.
