Product
CNPC’s Integrated Hydrocarbon Portfolio supplies crude oil, natural gas, and refined products; in 2025 CNPC produced 170 million tonnes of oil-equivalent (Mtoe) upstream output, securing ~40% of China’s domestic hydrocarbon needs. By end-2025 CNPC held diversified international assets across 20 countries, with overseas production contributing 22% of total output and sustaining $48 billion in FY2025 hydrocarbon revenues. These fuels underpin China’s industry, transport, and residential sectors, meeting peak winter gas demand spikes of 35–40 bcm annually. The portfolio supports national energy security while enabling CNPC’s downstream refining throughput of 200 mtpa.
CNPCs Advanced Petrochemicals unit makes synthetic resins, fibers, rubbers and traditional fertilizers, with petrochemical sales contributing about CNY 62.4 billion in 2024 (CNPC annual report).
The firm is pivoting to high-end materials and fine chemicals for electronics and automotive supply chains, aiming for a 25% revenue share from specialty products by 2026.
Production uses proprietary refining tech that raised feedstock-to-product yield by 3.8% in 2023 and cut CO2 intensity 9% year-over-year, supporting compliance with China’s 2060 neutrality goals.
CNPC targets 2025 emissions cuts and by 2024 had allocated CNY 50 billion to new-energy projects, adding hydrogen, geothermal, and integrated solar-wind offers projected to reach 5 GW capacity by 2026.
CNPC commercializes CCUS (carbon capture, utilization, storage) with 1.2 MtCO2/yr capacity in operation and contracts targeting 5 MtCO2/yr by 2025 for heavy industry clients.
This product shift moves CNPC from oil into a diversified multi-energy provider, where non-fossil revenue aims to be 10–15% of total sales by 2025, per company disclosures.
Natural Gas and LNG Supply
CNPC supplies natural gas and LNG from domestic fields and imports via pipelines and terminals, delivering about 160 billion cubic meters (bcm) system capacity in 2024 and targeting increased flows for 2025 coal-to-gas conversions.
By late 2025 CNPC prioritizes clean-burning fuel for urban coal-to-gas projects, supporting winter peak shaving and seasonal demand with LNG spot purchases and long-term pipeline contracts.
- 2024 system capacity ~160 bcm
- 2025 focus: urban coal-to-gas support
- Peak shaving & seasonal supply role
- Mix: domestic fields + pipeline + LNG imports
Oilfield Engineering and Technical Services
CNPCs Oilfield Engineering and Technical Services sells geophysical prospecting, well drilling, and pipeline construction using digital twin models and automated drilling systems from CNPC Research; service revenues reached about $4.2 billion in 2024, ~9% of CNPC’s overseas sales.
These tech solutions are exported to 28 countries in 2024, generating higher-margin, recurring service income and reducing commodity exposure.
- 2024 service revenue $4.2B
- Exports to 28 countries (2024)
- ~9% of CNPC overseas sales
- Key tech: digital twins, automated drilling

Place
CNPC’s PetroChina and Kunlun Energy run tens of thousands of service stations across mainland China—about 45,000 sites by end-2024—forming a retail and service station network that reached >80% county coverage. By 2025 many stations were upgraded into integrated energy hubs offering gasoline/diesel, over 120,000 public EV chargers on-site nationwide, and pilot hydrogen refueling at 150+ locations. This footprint drives ubiquity: urban metro stations plus rural coverage, supporting retail fuel sales of CNY 420 billion in 2024 and cross-selling of lubricants and convenience retail.
CNPC runs physical operations in 30+ countries, holding exploration and production blocks across Central Asia, Africa, and the Middle East; as of 2024 its overseas oil and gas output accounted for about 22% of total production, roughly 160 million barrels oil-equivalent per year.
These hubs secure upstream resources at source and feed a global supply chain into China—CNPC reported $18.7 billion in international upstream capex in 2023—reducing import price exposure and logistics cost volatility.
Geographic diversification across 30+ nations cuts localized geopolitical risk; between 2019–2024 CNPC shifted 12% of new production approvals to lower-risk jurisdictions to stabilize annual reserves replacement ratios.
CNPC’s midstream pipeline and storage arm controls critical national assets, including the West–East Gas Pipeline and over 70 million barrels of strategic petroleum reserves as of 2025, enabling transport from western fields to eastern industrial hubs. The network spans 50,000+ km of pipelines and 60+ Mtpa storage/processing capacity, cutting delivery times and lifting throughput efficiency. Integrated with China’s power and gas grids, CNPC supplies stable continuous energy to refineries and utilities, supporting ~30% of national gas transmission volume.
Digital Sales and E-commerce Ecosystems
CNPC uses integrated digital platforms and mobile apps to handle B2B and B2C sales, letting businesses and consumers access fuel services, manage enterprise accounts, and buy non-oil items via one interface.
This placement boosts convenience and enables real-time inventory and price updates across ~30,000 service points; CNPC reported a 22% YoY rise in digital transactions in 2024, driving higher throughput and lower stockouts.
- Unified app: fuel, accounts, retail
- ~30,000 outlets networked
- 22% YoY digital transaction growth (2024)
- Real-time inventory, dynamic pricing
Coastal LNG Terminals and Maritime Hubs
CNPC runs major regasification terminals and storage along China’s eastern seaboard, handling roughly 30–35 mtpa (million tonnes per annum) of LNG import capacity as of 2025 and ~4.5 bcm peak storage capacity.
These ports are primary entry points for imported LNG, linking suppliers in Australia, Qatar, and Russia to China’s gas network and supporting coastal supply nodes.
Terminals sit near Guangdong, Shanghai, and Tianjin economic zones to cut inland transport costs and reduce delivery times by 20–40% versus inland terminals.
- ~30–35 mtpa LNG import capacity (2025)
- ~4.5 bcm peak storage capacity
- Key hubs: Guangdong, Shanghai, Tianjin
- Transport cost/time cut: 20–40%
CNPC’s Place: ~45,000 service stations (end‑2024) with >80% county coverage; 120,000+ public EV chargers on‑site and 150+ H2 pilots; 50,000+ km pipelines, 70+ million barrels SPR (2025); 30–35 mtpa LNG import capacity and ~4.5 bcm storage; overseas output ~22% (~160 Mboe/year); 22% YoY digital transaction growth (2024).
| Metric | Value |
