Chinese oil and gas enterprises methane emission control alliance established

On May 18 , the China Oil and Gas Enterprises Methane Control Alliance jointly initiated by China National Petroleum Corporation, China Petrochemical Corporation and China National Offshore Oil Corporation was established in Beijing.

On May 18 , the China Oil and Gas Enterprises Methane Control Alliance jointly initiated by China National Petroleum Corporation, China Petrochemical Corporation and China National Offshore Oil Corporation was established in Beijing.

PetroChina, Sinopec, CNOOC, National Pipeline, Beijing Gas, China Resources Gas and ENN Energy are members of the alliance, and PetroChina is the first chairman of the alliance.

At the inaugural meeting, the "China Oil and Gas Enterprises Methane Control Alliance Initiative Declaration" was also issued.

At the meeting, the leaders of the Department of Resource Conservation and Environmental Protection of the National Development and Reform Commission, the Department of Climate Change Response of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Bureau of Science and Technology Innovation and Social Responsibility of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas of the National Energy Administration, and the representatives of the United Nations Environment Program in China attended the conference In his speech, he affirmed the initiative of oil and gas companies in optimizing energy structure and technological progress.

Zhao Penggao, deputy director of the Department of Environmental Resources and Resources of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the spontaneous establishment of methane control alliances by Chinese oil and gas companies fully reflects the corporate social responsibility and is an important action for the oil and gas industry to implement the concept of green development and the "two maintenance".

Sun Zhen, deputy director of the Department of Climate Change Response of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, hopes that enterprises in the alliance will lead the industry chain enterprises to jointly carry out methane emission reduction actions, put forward more good ideas and suggestions for methane emission control and utilization, and provide the international community with methane emission reduction The solutions and wisdom of Chinese companies.

Liu Changsen, deputy director of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Science and Technology Innovation and Social Responsibility Bureau, pointed out that the establishment of alliances is an important measure to implement the strategy of China's energy industry to achieve dual carbon goals.
