Henan to get major gas facility

Sinopec storage center to help ease shortage of fuel during peak demand

China's largest natural gas storage and logistics center is expected to start operation in Henan province by the end of 2018, as the country pushes on with a drive to ease the gas shortage during peak times, according to China Petrochemical Corp on Wednesday.

In line with a shift to cleaner fuel, the facility will boost its capacity to store up to 10 billion cubic meters of gas, said the country's oil and gas giant, also known as Sinopec.
