In 2014, #gazprom and CNPC signed the Sales and Purchase Agreement for Russian gas to be supplied via the eastern route (Power of Siberia gas pipeline). The 30-year Agreement provides for gas deliveries to China in the amount of 38 billion cubic meters per year.

In 2015, #gazprom and CNPC inked the Heads of Agreement for pipeline deliveries of natural gas from Western Siberian fields to China via the western route (Power of Siberia 2 gas pipeline). At the initial stage, 30 billion cubic meters of gas is planned to be delivered annually.

In 2015, #gazprom and CNPC inked the Memorandum of Understanding for the project of pipeline gas supplies to China from Russia’s Far East.

On June 25, 2016, #gazprom and CNPC signed the Memorandum of Understanding on underground gas storage and gas-fired power generation in China.

On November 7, 2016, #gazprom and CNPC signed the Memorandum to explore the opportunities for cooperation in the NGV sector.
