The Research On Status Quo,terms And Strategies For Oil & Natural Gas Cooperation Between China And Kazakhstan

The quantity of oil and natural gas is very limited in China. It is hard to satisfy the growing need for oil and natural gas. After several decades of development, the petroleum industry has already turned into the steady and low development stage. There can't be a significant growth in the yield of petroleum and natural gas in medium term. China has to import a great deal of oil and gas to satisfy domestic need. So its foreign oil dependency is bigger than before. China still doesn't completely build up petroleum strategy storage currently. Once importing oil and natural gas appears problems will lead bad influence China's economic development. China should implement "walk out" strategy, strengthen international cooperation, actively tap foreign oil resources and carry out diversification of importing oil and gas. Only in this way can China ensure the safety of oil and gas, and then ensure the safety of economy. Kazakhstan is China's neighbor country. It owns the abundant oil and gas resources. The yield of oil and gas rises year by year. Its native development strategy is "resources rich country". China and Kazakhstan carry out oil and gas cooperation based on the energy development strategy, natural geo-advantage and complementation of oil refining technology etc. The oil and gas cooperation not only satisfies the need for oil and gas, but also expands importing source of oil and gas, and then guarantee Chinese safety of oil and economy. In recent years, the cooperation developed quickly. The quantity of oil and gas imported from Kazakhstan rises year by year. The oil and gas cooperation can be great promoted in the future.This article researches on the oil and gas cooperation between China and Kazakhstan by taking demonstration analysis and comparison analysis. Chapter 1 mainly introduces textual background and meaning, generalizes domestic and international scholar's researches on the realm of oil and gas cooperation. Chapter 2 compares the reserves, production, consumption and trade condition of oil and gas between China and Kazakhstan. And then this Chapter estimates the production and consumption of oil and gas in the future. We can make the conclusion that the supply and demand of oil and gas keep disequilibrium and the safety of oil and gas faces challenge of fluctuation of energy price in China. Compared with China, the production of oil and gas is abundant and the yield rises quickly year by year in Kazakhstan. But domestic consumption of oil and gas is limited. Therefore, China and Kazakhstan have the chance to carry out cooperation of oil and gas. Chapter 3 first analyses the stage and scale of cooperation of oil and gas between China and Kazakhstan, and then discuss the mode of cooperation including international direct investment, international credit, international leasing, international project contracting and international service cooperation. Chapter 4 analyses geo-advantage, resource and technology, the cooperation of economy and trade, the strategy of development of oil and gas and agreement between China and Kazakhstan. And then this chapter discusses the challenge from policy and law, the competition ability of Chinese enterprise,international competition and terrorism, religious extremism and ethnic separatism, aiming for providing countermeasures. Chapter 5 provides countermeasures and advice from government and enterprise based on the above-mentioned argument in the hope of pushing the economic development of China.
