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 2017, the total value of new contracts entered into by the Group amounted to RMB5.799 billion, and contracts that are representative are as follows:

  1. a number of contracts entered into with Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Refining Co., Ltd.* (恒力石化(大連)煉化有限公司) in relation to the refining-chemical integration project in Dalian with a capacity of 20 million tons per annum. The total contract value is approximately RMB2.201 billion;

  2. an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract entered into with SINOPEC Jinan Company* (中國石油化工股份有限公司濟南分公司) in relation to the oil refining restructuring and quality upgrade project in Jinan for its catalytic cracking unit. The total contract value is approximately RMB680 million; and

  3. an EPC contract entered into with SINOPEC Great Wall Energy and Chemical (Ningxia) Co., Ltd.* (中國石化長城能源化工(寧夏)有限公司) in relation to the synthetic gas debottlenecking and acetic acid gap-filling project in Ningxia. The total contract value is approximately RMB358 million.

Backlog

Backlog represents the total estimated contract value of work that remains to be completed pursuant to outstanding contracts as at 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.
