Guangdong Price Bureau Says Natural Gas Will Not Rise

Inspector of the Guangdong Provincial Price Bureau, Lin Lin, on behalf of the Provincial Price Bureau, highlighted the fact that the prices of natural gas for pipelines used by Guangdong residents will remain basically stable in the near future. It is unlikely that they will be raised.

The price of natural gas for civilian pipelines has not risen this year. Some natural gas prices have been raised in Changchun and Chongqing, and Guangdong will adjust the price of natural gas for residents. Yesterday, Lin Lin made it clear on the program that from the perspective of the gas price in Guangdong, the price of natural gas for pipelines used by Guangdong residents will remain basically stable, and there is little likelihood of upward adjustment. "How long is the recent period?" Lin Lin replied: "At least this year."

Lin Lin further explained that currently there are several sources of gas in Guangdong: imported Australian LNG, West Second Line natural gas, offshore natural gas and imported Qatar liquefied natural gas, of which Australia natural gas accounts for nearly 40% of Guangdong's total gas source, and the contract period is 25 years During the contract period, both gas volume and gas price remained basically stable, and the average price of gas to the city since the start of production was maintained at around 1.55 yuan per cubic meter. "The imported natural gas with high quality and low cost has really benefited the users in our province."

“On the other hand, there are strict procedures for adjusting the prices of residential natural gas for pipelines, not to mention adjustments.” Lin Lin said that if local governments adjust the prices of natural gas for residential use, they must hold hearings and listen widely to opinions from the public.

Xiaochen questioned that such electricity prices were more than double the prices, and the price of water was nearly three times higher. What makes her difficult to understand is that the price of water in Huanong School is a ton of 2.97 yuan and the price of electricity is 0.647 yuan.
