Moreover, in November, Gazprom announced a framework agreement to deliver an additional 30 bcm of gas to China’s Xingjiang Province from western Siberia for 30 years via another new pipeline. If the “eastern” and “western” pipelines are completed as planned, the 68 bcm they deliver to China annually would dwarf the 40 bcm that Russia exports to its current largest customer, Germany.
此外，11月，俄石油了一份框架协议，通过另一条起子西西伯利亚的新建管道在30年中每年向中国新疆自治区输送300亿立方米天然气。如果“东”、“西”管道按期完工，它们每年将向中国输送680亿立方米天然气，远超俄罗斯向目前的最大客户德国的输气量。
