There are roundabout ways. It is necessary to arrange production. Must not to depend on foreign suppliers.

I think you guys should go the way of North Korea and just implement Autarky/Juche. Then my country can get rich off selling our gas to China/Europe :homebrew:

Gazprom and CNPC signed the contract on supply of gas to China. Period of validity of the agreement is calculated on 30 years.

The price of the contract will make 400 billion dollars, quotes the chairman of the board of Gazprom Alexey Miller of ITAR-TASS. Proceeding from total amount of the contract (400 billion dollars in 30 years) if annual deliveries make 38 billion cubic meters, it turns out the price of the Chinese contract about 350 dollars for 1 thousand CBM, counted the analyst of "Capital VTB" Ekaterina Rodina.

To read completely: http://top.rbc.ru/economics/21/05/2014/925229.shtml

I was the impression that Russia was forced to sell their gas on favorable terms to China because of the tension with Europe over Ukraine. $13.5 billion a year for 38 billion cubic metres is cheap, particularly when a similar level for Ukraine at the price Russia decided, $400 per 1000 cubic meters, works out to be $15.2 billion a year.

quote:

PetroChina will buy $50 billion worth of liquefied natural gas from the yet to be developed Gorgon field off the coast of Western Australia.

The field is being developed by a multi-national consortium. The deal virtually guarantees that the Gorgon project will go ahead, it should be up and running within five years and is expected at its peak to employ 6,000 workers.

That was back in 2009 for Australia. So it's not like transporting gas is that expensive if China is willing to buy that much of it.
