The companies listed above form a group called conglomerates (associations) or tsixuan (jítuán),
all of which are headquartered side by side along a second ring road in Beijing, known as the
“conglomerate line” (jítuán lù). Sinopec and CNPC are the largest state-owned enterprises in
China. According to the data, together with CNOOC, these three companies accounted for 24.1%
of total sales revenue, 23.5% of revenue and 40% of taxes collected from state-owned enterprises
in 2007.

The origins of the largest energy conglomerates differ from those currently reflected in the
different spectra of their practices. Sinopec and CNPC originated from state monopolies
established in the 1950s on the basis of the Ministry of Petroleum and the Ministry of Chemical
Industry. While CNPC was primarily focused on oil and gas production within the country,
Sinopec’s mission was to refine, market and produce oil and gas products.
In addition, the activities of these companies also had a clear geographical definition, with CNPC
controlling northern China and Sinopec controlling the southern regions. The companies carried
out the initial public offering of shares in order to increase capital and subsequently expand
abroad.

In 1998, at the initiative of Chinese Prime Minister Zhu Junji, as part of a large-scale radical
reorganization of state ministries and agencies, the Chinese leadership set goals to increase the
efficiency and profitability of the largest state-owned companies. registered as.They have great
opportunities to run a profit-oriented business, even on a global scale, rather than depending on
government programs. The central idea of the reorganization was to define a more precise
division of labor between structures, specific types of production, that is, between mining
operations and oil production, or refining and marketing responsibilities and tasks.
Such a distribution was intended to bring long-term competitiveness and greater efficiency to
international energy companies capable of extracting, producing, processing, and branding a
significant share of the brand on an international scale. After the reorganization of CNPC, it
transferred some of its assets in the field of oil extraction and production to Sinopec. The
preservation of state property and public investment in companies is seen as a competitive
advantage over the world’s leading oil companies, and this is a hallmark of Chinese TMCs.
