China�s Crude Imports Fall To 21.7Mn Tons In June
China�s crude oil imports declined by 14.8% in June to 21.72mn tons or 5.28mn b/d from the monthly record of 25.48mn tons set in May, according to data released by the country�s General Administration of Customs. High imports during May reportedly boosted the country�s inventories because refinery demand slipped. China has imported 140.06mn tons during 2012, an average of 5.62mn b/d so far this year.
