CHINA'S GAS IMPORTS UP 10%

PLATTS - China's natural gas imports, comprising LNG and pipeline gas, totaled 8.34 million mt, or 11.5 Bcm, in August, the latest preliminary data released by the General Administration of Customs showed.

The August imports were up 7.7% year on year from 7.74 million mt, or 10.68 Bcm, S&P Global Platts calculations based on historical data from the customs showed.

Over January-August, China imported a total of 63.04 million mt, or 86.93 Bcm of natural gas, up 10.3% from 57.15 million mt, or 78.81 Bcm, during the same period last year, according to the customs data.

For month-on-month comparison, August imports were also up 5.6% from 7.89 million mt, or 10.89 Bcm in July, Platts calculations showed.

Preliminary import data does not separate specific volumes for LNG and pipeline gas. The detailed data will be released by customs later in the month.

CHINA'S GDP UP 6.2%
The Chinese economy is facing external headwinds and an uncertain environment. GDP growth slowed to 6.6 percent in 2018, driven by necessary financial regulatory reforms and softening external demand. Growth is projected to moderate to 6.2 percent in 2019 as the planned policy stimulus partially offsets the negative impact from the US tariff hike on US$ 200 billion of Chinese exports. Headline inflation rose due to rising food prices and is expected to remain around 2½ percent.
