New Contract Value and Backlog
Representative New Contracts
New contract value represents the value of the contracts the Group entered into during a specified period. The value of a contract is the amount that the Group expects to receive under the terms of the contract if the contract is performed in accordance with its terms. During the three months ended 31 March 2014, the total value of new contracts entered into by the Group amounted to RMB15.873 billion, and contracts that are representative are as follows:
-
an EPC contract for the receiving terminal station under the Shandong liquefied natural gas (LNG) project of Sinopec Qingdao LNG Co., Ltd. (中國石化青島液 化天然氣有限責任公司), with a contract value of RMB2.640 billion.
-
an EPC contract for the 180/400 thousand tons per annum ethylene oxide/ethylene glycol (EO/EG) project of Fujian Refining & Petrochemical Co., Ltd. (福建聯合石油化工有限公司), with a contract value of RMB1.368 billion;

a construction contract for the hydrocracking and diesel hydrotreating project of Saudi Aramco Oil Company (沙特阿美石油公司), with a contract value of USD194 million.
Backlog
Backlog represents the total estimated contract value of work that remains to be completed pursuant to outstanding contracts as of a certain date, net of estimated value added tax and is based on the Group’s assumption that the relevant contracts will be performed in accordance with their terms. Backlog is not a measure defined by generally accepted accounting principles. Any modification, termination or suspension of these contracts by the Group’s clients may have a substantial and immediate effect on the Group’s backlog. Projects may also remain in the Group’s backlog for an extended period of time beyond what was initially anticipated due to various factors beyond the Group’s control.
