Russia Set New Record for Daily Gas Deliveries to China

Russia set a new record for daily gas deliveries to China via the Power of Siberia gas pipeline, the press service of the energy corporation Gazprom said on Saturday.
“On Nov. 23, the Chinese side’s application for the supply of Russian gas through the Power of Siberia gas pipeline again exceeded the daily contractual obligations. Gazprom delivered all the requested volumes and set a new historical record for daily gas supplies to China,” the company said in a statement.
Gazprom did not specify the amount of hydrocarbons supplied, just saying they were made in accordance with a bilateral long-term gas purchase and sale agreement between Gazprom and the Chinese National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC).
By the end of 2022, Russia had exported 15.5 billion cubic meters of gas to China via the Power of Siberia gas pipeline. This year’s deliveries are expected to be some 22 billion cubic meters.
The Power of Siberia is a Gazprom-operated pipeline, built in Eastern Siberia in 2015-2019, which transports natural gas from Russia’s region of Yakutia to China.
