The annual output of natural gas in Xinjiang exceeded 30billion cubic meters for the first time

in 2015, the cumulative production of natural gas in Xinjiang exceeded 30.5 billion cubic meters, and the annual output exceeded 30billion cubic meters for the first time. So far, Xinjiang has become the second domestic province with an annual natural gas output of more than 30billion cubic meters after Shaanxi

to achieve this new breakthrough, Tarim Oilfield contributed more than 78% of the gas. Caoxingbin, deputy chief engineer of the oil and gas transportation and marketing department of Tarim Oilfield, said that Tarim Oilfield is one of the main gas sources of the west east gas transmission project, and the natural gas production has increased from 351million cubic meters in 2004 to 235 in 2015, bearing the banner of new material development 5.1 billion cubic meters, especially in the past five years, with the increase of gas consumption in the downstream of the west to east gas pipeline, the average annual growth rate is 7.6%

Xinjiang's natural gas resources account for 28% of the country, and it is a large region of natural gas resources in China. Natural gas exploration and development has always been highly concerned by the state. In September, 1998, Tarim Oilfield Company discovered Kela 2 gas field, which contributed to the start-up and implementation of the west to east gas transmission project and promoted the rapid development of China's natural gas industry

with the operation of the west to East Gas Transmission Project in 2004, Xinjiang's natural gas development has stepped into the fast lane. The first implementation example under PetroChina: the three oil and gas fields of Tarim Oilfield Company, Xinjiang Oilfield Company, Tuha Oilfield Company and one oil and gas field of Sinopec, which can only reach a certain load each time the load is applied, produced 5.7 billion cubic meters of natural gas in recent years according to analysts, In 2005, the production of natural gas was 10.6 billion cubic meters, breaking the 10 billion cubic meter mark for the first time; In 2007, it produced 21billion cubic meters of natural gas, becoming the first province in China with an annual natural gas output of more than 20billion cubic meters
