China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) pays high attention to CO2 emission control and utilization. Firstly, we have used many technologies to save energy and to reduce the CO2 emission. In 2015, 196 million tons of CO2 emission was avoided. CNPC has also carried out the enhanced oil recovery with CO2 for many years. We have conducted the pilot tests of chemical utilization of carbon dioxide. For example, in 2016, a pilot test of CO2 reforming of methane was completed in Jilin. We supported the universities and institutes of the Chinese Academy of Science for the fundamental studies on CO2 conversion for many years. CNPC actively involves in the national research projects on CO2 utilization, including a project on CO2 conversion and utilization of the National Key Research and Development Program, Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China, started from 2016. CNPC frequently organized meetings or workshops on CO2 issue. In 2000, CNPC initiated China Green Carbon Foundation, which was the first national public foundation in China. This foundation focused on the emission reduction and dealt with climate change. CNPC has made and will continue to make her own significant contributions to the CO2 issue.
