China imported 9.18 million mt, or 12.65 Bcm, of natural gas, including LNG and piped gas, in November, up 21.8% on the month, S&P Global Platts calculations based on preliminary data released by the General Administration of Customs showed Dec. 7.
Stronger domestic demand, driven by lower weather temperature last month, was seen to have stimulated natural gas imports in November, market sources said.
“Cold winter expectation is expected to have encouraged buyings for supply guarantee,” a source said.
