The overall objective of the planning project is to develop aninfrastructure system for the reserves, including strategic reserves,production reserves, commercial reserves, transport, and distribution. Thesystem building is expected to meet economic, technical, and environmentalrequirements; and ensure sufficient, safe, continuous reserves and supplies forsocio-economic development, national defence, and security.
The planning project also aims to ensure that the storage capacityof crude oil and petroleum products nationwide reaches 75-80 days of netimports; and the storage capacity of gas reserves meets the domestic marketdemand.
Specifically, it targets to stabilise the commercialpetroleum infrastructure to meet demand in the local market, with an additionalstorage capacity of 2,500,000-3,500,000 cubic metres for 2021-2030 and10,500,000 cubic metres after 2030.
The planning looks to form infrastructure for nationalreserves with a storage capacity of 500,000-1,000,000 cubic metres of petroleumproducts and 1,000,000-2,000,000 tonnes of crude oil within the 2021-2030period./.
