China’s comprehensive LNG import price rises last week

SHANGHAI, Dec. 5, 2019 (BSS/Xinhua) – China’s comprehensive import price
index for liquefied natural gas (LNG) rose last week, according to Shanghai
Petroleum and Natural Gas Exchange (SHPGX).

The LNG index, not including tax, came in at 3,382 yuan (about 480 U.S.
dollars) per tonne from Nov. 25 to Dec. 1, 2019, up 0.7 percent from the
reading of 3,360 yuan per tonne the week before.

The index, jointly developed by a monitoring center under the General
Administration of Customs and the SHPGX, was launched on Oct. 16, 2019 and is
due on a weekly basis to offer a new pricing reference for importers.
