China’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports in August fell 28.1% from a year earlier to 4.72 million tonnes, according to China’s customs data.
Shipments during the first eight months of the year were also down 21.3% from the same time a year ago at 40.64 million tonnes amid high spot prices of the super-chilled fuel.
Pipeline gas imports rose 9% in August from a year ago to 4.13 million tonnes and year-to-date import volumes were up 10.6% from a year earlier to 30.40 million tonnes.
