TotalEnergies views this agreement as a means to strengthen its long-term position in the growing Chinese market. 

In China, natural gas plays a crucial role in the shift towards renewable energy, helping to lower emissions when it replaces coal in power generation.

“This agreement allows us to continue securing long-term sales in Asia and reduce our exposure to spot market gas prices.”
