July 7 (LNGJ) - Malaysian oil and gas company Petronas said the LNG division signed a 10-year deal to supply volumes to the trading unit of the Chinese major China National Offshore Oil Corp. “The deal is for 2.2 million tonnes per annum indexed to a combination of the Brent and Alberta Energy Company (AECO) indices,” said Petronas.
