CNPC begins pipeline gas injection at Xiangguosi gas storage facility

Xiangguosi Gas Storage has a designed storage capacity of 4.2 billion cubic metres

The gas storage is expected to provide 10 million cubic metres of natural gas to the major pipeline networks in China for winter peak shaving purposes later this year.
