Recently, the first batch of 99 LNG tank containers totaling more than 1,700 tons were successfully imported in the Xiuyu operation area of Putian Port, and were transported out of the terminal by car and sent to the import enterprise after being released by Putian Customs. This batch of imported LNG can provide 160,000 families of three with one month's gas consumption, which greatly solves the gas shortage in Fujian. The import of LNG by tank container transportation enriches Putian's green energy industry, which can transport LNG to areas not covered by the pipeline network, which can effectively supplement the demand for peak shaving and flexible gas use.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the Fujian LNG project, and Putian Customs has supervised the import of more than 700 LNG ships and 43 million tons, equivalent to 61.8 billion cubic meters of natural gas, effectively serving the high-quality economic and social development and people's livelihood needs of Fujian and surrounding areas. "Over the past 20 years, Putian Customs has set up a special class, intervened in advance, and 'checked the pulse' from the import of equipment and parts during the construction period of the project to the import of the first ship of LNGMore than 30 business exchange seminars have been organized, and various national policies to benefit enterprises have been quickly implemented, and the smoothness of import LNG supervision and customs clearance has been continuously improved, so as to fulfill its responsibilities for the development of Putian's green energy industry. Lin Longyan, the business commissioner of China Shipping Fujian Natural Gas, said.
