Aljazeera: China to boost oil-refining capacity

E3Ccfb38277D4B6C8Fa2D936Fdbf39Bc From Aljazeera.Net:

China plans to increase its oil-refining capacity by more than a third within the next five years to meet the demands of its booming economy.

Chinese state media reported on Tuesday that Beijing would add 100 million tonnes to its refining capacity by 2010.

China processed a record 273 million tonnes of crude oil last year, up 13.7% from the year before, marking the fastest growth rate in three decades.

Thanks, Yong Liu!
