The webinar will focus on the structure of Chinese infrastructure, with a special emphasis on bottlenecks in the supply chain.

The webinar will also address the planned expansion of the refining system, the implications of the development of the national oil logistics system on China's crude oil buying patterns and the impact of Russian-Chinese energy ties. Domestic political considerations and competition between the two major oil companies also are having an impact on the development of China's oil infrastructure.
