SHANGHAI: Fuelled by strong demand from the industrial sector amid an economic recovery and industrial decarbonisation, China’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports could hit a record in 2024, company executives and experts say.
China, the world’s top importer of the super-chilled fuel, is on course to import around 80 million tonnes of LNG this year, driven by increased demand from the industrial and commercial sectors, said Zhang Yaoyu, global head of LNG and new energies for PetroChina International under China National Petroleum Corp.
