The report states that "due to insufficient pipeline network and lack of storage facilities... this makesTransporting LNG by tanker truckBecoming a * business in China. ”Chen Zhu, Executive Director of consulting firm Siya Energy, stated that China's total natural gas consumption in 2017 was approximately 240 billion cubic meters, with tanker transportation accounting for about 1/10. In comparison, the proportion in 2014 was only 5.6%.

According to reports, China's first natural gas tanker hit the road in 2003. Tank trucks operated by companies such as Xinjiang Guanghui Energy have to travel for more than a week, transporting from remote northwest gas fields to southern factories 5000 kilometers away.

Li Ruipeng is an expert in transporting imported natural gas. His company has signed an annual contract with CNOOC at the Tianjin LNG receiving station to ensure the acquisition of natural gas. In addition, he has obtained spot cargo from Caofeidian to load semi trailers with 13 meter long tanks, store LNG low-temperature liquids, and supply them to customers.

According to reports, amidst concerns about winter demand, spot LNG prices have surged, attracting shipments from places such as Norway and the United States. Recently, a Reuters reporter visited China National Petroleum Corporation's natural gas import terminal in Caofeidian, Tangshan. Before a natural gas cargo ship from Australia docked, a long queue of tank trucks lined up in a huge parking lot.

The report believes that from China's largest gas distributor New Energy to relatively small suppliers such as Huapu Gas, they have invested heavily in expanding their transportation fleets this year, with each transportation vehicle costing nearly 1 million yuan. According to data provided by PetroChina Jingtang Liquefied Natural Gas Company, which operates the terminal, the sales of LNG transported by Caofeidian tanker trucks surged to 480 million cubic meters by mid October, six times the amount for the entire year of 2016.
