China Able to Import More Crude Oil from Russia

China recently completed the expansion of a liquid transshipment base at its largest land port city of Manzhouli in a bid to import more crude oil from Russia.

Located in the northeastern part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Manzhouli is a next-door neighbor of Chitinskaya Obl. of Russia. China imports and transships crude oil via Manzhouli.

As China's demand for crude oil continues to increase, Manzhouli has upgraded its transshipment capability with one million yuan (120,500 US dollars) of investment.

The transshipment base is now equipped with 16 sliding-vane pumps, 13 reciprocating pumps, and 15 trolleys, and can now transship 3,100 tons of crude oil from 58 tank trucks in three hours. Before its expansion, it could transship only 1,320 tons of oil from 24 tank trucks in five hours.
