中国北京 - 2005年12月22日- 中国石化国际事业有限公司（"中国石化"全资子公司）和GE能源集团签署了许可贸易协议，将GE气化技术运用到山东省的中国石化齐鲁分公司化肥厂。
该厂计划于2008年第一季度开始投入商业运作，届时合成气日产量将达到约240万标准立方米用于该化肥厂的化学品生产。
除技术许可证，GE还将提供一个气化工艺设计包、协助审查关键设备详细设计图纸、为气化装置的机械竣工和开车提供技术服务。90%以上的气化设备将在中国当地制造。
中国石化集团宁波工程有限公司是本项目的工程公司。
自从GE能源集团于2004年6月收购雪佛龙德士古公司（ChevronTexaco）的气化技术以来，已经与中国企业签订了4项气化许可贸易协议。从20世纪70年代以来，该技术在中国已累计签署了26项许可贸易协议，其中17个项目已经在商业运行。
齐鲁是运用GE气化技术的第4家中国石化企业。在此之前签署的许可证协议是1978年的镇海炼油化工股份有限公司化肥厂、2002年的金陵分公司化肥厂和 2003年的南京化学有限公司化肥厂。中国石化是中国最大的成品油生产企业和市场营销企业，同时也是中国第二大石油天然气勘探企业和生产企业。
