    SINGAPORE, Sept 3 (Reuters) - Chinese state-run oil and gas trader Zhenhua
Oil is finalising a joint venture with Jiangsu Guoxin Investment Group, a
local-government-backed firm that operates gas pipelines in east China, to build
a receiving terminal in Jiangsu province.  urn:newsml:reuters.com:*:nL4N2PW27F
    Zhenhua is one of the firms beyond national energy giants that will lead new
investment in terminals for importing liquefied natural gas (LNG). The group
aims to nearly quadruple capacity over the next decade to account for over 40%
of the total, Reuters reported last October.  urn:newsml:reuters.com:*:nL4N2HB1MR
    Other companies include city gas distributors backed by local governments,
such as Guangdong Energy Group and Zhejiang Energy Group, and private gas
marketers such as ENN Energy Holdings and Xinjiang Guanghui Energy Co.
    They are set to operate a total of nearly 60 million tonnes of annual
receiving capacity by 2030, up from around 16 million tonnes now. 
    The companies are also expected to import from terminals now grouped under
the newly formed PipeChina, formally known as China Oil and Gas Pipeline
Network.
    PipeChina runs nine working terminals absorbed from state oil giants and is
building a tenth. This month, it started marketing access to six of them —
Beihai, Hainan, Yuedong, Fangchenggang, Shenzhen and two in Tianjin — for winter
2020.
    Here are the terminals and projects the firms own and plan:
