PetroChina (PTR) Subsidiaries to Expand LNG & Oil Terminals
Read MoreHide Full Article
Two subsidiaries of PetroChina Company Limited recently struck deals with Yantai Port Group, a state-run port operation services provider, to develop a new liquified natural gas (LNG) receiving terminal. The companies will also jointly work on enhancing a crude oil terminal at Yantai port, located in the eastern part of Shandong province.
LNG Terminal Deal
PetroChina’s unit, Kunlun Energy, along with Yantai Port Group will invest ¥7 billion ($1 billion) to construct the LNG terminal, which will have four storage tanks of 200,000 cubic meters. Both the companies will also build a dock, with a capacity of receiving LNG vessels of 266,000 cubic meters.
The subsidiary of PetroChina already operates three major LNG terminals in the Jiangsu, Hebei and Liaoning provinces, with 19.3 million metric tons per year of LNG receiving capacity. It also has a small LNG reserve storage in the Hainan island. The company has two projects associated with LNG terminals under construction, which are expected to come online by 2020. Per S&P Global Platts, Kunlun intends to build 11 LNG import terminals, which are expected to ramp up its LNG receiving capacity by 80 million metric tons per annum by 2030.
Crude Oil Terminal
Another subsidiary of PetroChina, PetroChina Fuel Oil, coupled with Yantai Port Group intends to invest about ¥5 billion ($739.9 million) to expand a crude oil terminal and storage tanks at west Yantai port, and build the second phase of its Yantai-Zibocrude oil pipeline in the Shandong province. Notably, a joint venture between CNOOC Limited (CEO - Free Report) and Yantai Port Group operates the existing phase 1 crude terminal, which came online in September 2016.

Today's Stocks from Zacks' Hottest Strategies
It's hard to believe, even for us at Zacks. But while the market gained +21.9% in 2017, our top stock-picking screens have returned +115.0%, +109.3%, +104.9%, +98.6%, and +67.1%.
