Press Release Summary = As Shanghai launches a major LNG project with Malaysia,

future.

Press Release Body = Shanghai has launched a key energy supply project for
transmitting LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) from Malaysia to the economic hub in east
China for over 25 years, as reported by the news agency Xinhua, published in DAILY
EXPRESS NEWS on 27 January 2007.

The project will supply approximately 1.1 Million Tons per year in the initial three
years and from 2012 it will rise to 3 Million Tons per year.

National Development & Reform Commission of China had approved this project in
December 2006, said Xinhua. This project, together with the west to east gas
pipeline of China and the East China Sea gas project will likely help in fulfilling
the demands of energy for Shanghai, improving the efficiency of energy, and cutting
the emissions, National Development & Reform Commission’s spokesman said.

Gas market in China looks promising owing to the increasing proportion of natural
gas there. Natural gas is expected to completely replace the manufactured gas in
near future. Therefore, steady development is foreseen in the LNG – natural
gas’ complementary energy.

West east Gas Transmission Project’s operation is going to strongly affect the
prices, demand and supply of other energies, and this will eventually transform the
energy market structure in China.

Investment will be the key for the further growth of the gas industry in China. Huge
investments will spur growth in all areas of the industry namely, marketing,
development, transmission, and production.
