China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC), the mainland's largest oil and gas producer, plans to spend 630 billion yuan (HK$791.8 billion) over the next decade to build four more long-distance gas pipelines that would see 65 per cent of the nation's cities connected to its network.
This is according to company veteran Wang Bingcheng, a former deputy head and chief engineer of Daqing Petroleum Administration Bureau, which ran the country's largest oilfield before the stock market listing of CNPC's main unit PetroChina.
