In 2024, the Tarim Oilfield of China National Petroleum Corporation, the country's leading oil and gas producer, put 14 ultra-deep gas wells into operation to provide over one billion cubic meters of natural gas for China's West-to-East gas pipelines.
The Tarim Oilfield, located in Tarim Basin, is a major petroliferous basin in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
Drilled in the South Tianshan Mountains of the Tarim Oilfield, the Bozi 25 well is now operational. As the largest natural gas reserve block in the Bozi-Dabei area, the ultra-deep well has extended Tarim Oilfield's gas-bearing zone by 10 kilometers to the east.

Since September 2004, the Tarim Oilfield had cumulatively supplied 350 billion cubic meters of natural gas to the central and eastern parts of China as of 8:00 a.m. Friday, offsetting the use of standard coal by 466 million tonnes and cutting carbon dioxide emissions by 757 million tonnes, according to the oilfield.
According to statistics, more than 120 cities in 15 provincial-level regions across China have been benefited by the natural gas supplied by the oilfield.
