The provinces and cities along the West-East Gas Pipeline changed from the “gas-price dispute” to the “gas-volume dispute.” Chemical companies are worried about the use of gas this winter.

The reporter learned from Zhengzhou Gas Company of Henan Province that due to shortage of natural gas resources, Zhengzhou City, Henan Province this year will have a gap of 60 million cubic meters. This situation makes Henan Zhongyuan Dahua Group and other industrial gas giants worry about safety for the winter.
The reporter learned from the Henan Office of West-East Gas Transmission and Transportation that since last year, along with the accelerating process of urbanization and industrialization throughout the country, the market development work of four provinces and cities including Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai along the West-East Gas Transmission Line The focus has changed from the original "price war" to the current "gas contention." As early as September last year, PetroChina had announced that the total gas volume of the 12 billion cubic meters of the West-East Gas Pipeline had been allocated, and only the second phase of 5 billion cubic meters had not yet been set. However, it is now reported that 5 billion cubic meters of the second phase of the West-East Gas Pipeline project will mainly supply Beijing in the future to support the Olympics. If this news is reliable, then if four provinces and one city want to fight for some gas indicators, the difficulty can be imagined. The four provinces are exactly the provinces of chemical industry. The gas consumption of their chemical companies accounts for a large proportion of the entire amount of natural gas.
According to the reporter's understanding, in the face of a huge gas shortage, Zhengzhou Gas Co., Ltd. has already started three emergency measures. The first is to negotiate with CNPC. On the basis of the original contract for gas supply, this year, an additional 29 million cubic meters of gas supply will be added to Zhengzhou; secondly, the Zhongyuan Oilfield in Henan Province has also been negotiated properly. Zhongyuan Oilfield promises to be in Zhengzhou City this winter. During the peak period of gas supply, Zhengzhou increased the gas supply volume for Zhengzhou. Third, Zhengzhou Gas Co., Ltd. is also negotiating with China National Petroleum Corporation’s subsidiary PetroChina Changxing Subsidiary to actively strive for more gas use indicators.
In addition, for the sake of a long-term plan, the Henan Provincial Development and Reform Commission has begun to search for new sources of gas. The project "River Sichuan into Henan" has been formally put on the agenda. As early as the end of May this year, the province sent someone to Beijing to discuss with Sinopec, and introduced Sichuan natural gas to Henan. According to reporters from related parties, at present, the feasibility study of Sichuan Gas has been commissioned by the Zhongyuan Oilfield Design Institute. Sichuan Gas is expected to enter Henan before and after 2008.
However, according to the person in charge of Zhengzhou Gas Co., Ltd., if the above measures cannot be guaranteed and the new natural gas targets cannot be met before the “Chuanqi Gas Co., Ltd.”, if there is a big gap in the supply of natural gas, the civilians will be guaranteed first. Gas supply, and take measures to control the development of natural gas for vehicles. If there is a large gap, it may be possible to shut off some of the natural gas filling stations for vehicles and restrict the use of industrial gas, and fully guarantee the supply of civilian natural gas. At the same time, it will increase the restrictions on newly added non-civilian gas users in urban areas. This position has made gas companies, especially “gas-head” fertilizer producers, deeply uneasy because no matter whether it is the importance of social stability or price advantage, industrial gas cannot compete with urban gas-phase, and the gas source is strained. At that time, it is usually a priority to protect the city's gas supply, making chemical companies use more gas.
According to the reporter from Henan Zhongyuan Dahua Group, the natural gas of Zhongyuan Dahua is all supplied by Zhongyuan Oilfield, which requires 400 million cubic meters of natural gas per year. At present, the supply of 300 million cubic meters per year is still not guaranteed. This year, the company's natural gas supply is only 2/3 of the normal demand. Due to lack of gas, the current production capacity of Zhongyuan Dahua can only be about 70%. In addition, Zhongyuan Oilfield also promised to increase the supply of gas to Zhengzhou during the peak supply period of Zhengzhou City this winter. The Zhongyuan Oilfield is frank, and in order to protect people's gas in the winter, their supply of gas to enterprises can only be reduced. It seems that in the winter, the hope of Zhongyuan Dahua to achieve full production is very slim.
