Due for completion in 2010, the Tianjin plant will include a 3 million metric tonnes per annum LNG receiving terminal amongst some of its other facilities.

According to a CNOOC spokesperson, "The company also plans to build an LNG terminal in Dalian City [and] discussions with the Dalian government are underway."
