CNPC includes production from CNPC (1988-2010) and PetroChina (2011-present). CNPC is the parent company of PetroChina. After 2010, CNPC intermittently report production, but it is uncertain whether this is separate to that reported by PetroChina. It is assumed that this production overlaps and so is not added.

Climate Policy Engagement

Climate Policy Engagement Overview: PetroChina is strategically engaged on climate policy with a mix of positive and negative positions. PetroChina has stated top-line support for climate policy and engaged positively with renewable energy policy, circular economy policy, and GHG emissions policy. However, the company has advocated for the continued role of fossil fuels in the energy mix, including increased oil and fossil gas exploration in China and abroad. PetroChina also retains memberships to industry associations which have engaged strategically on various strands of climate policy.
