Over the past three years since the corruption case was exposed, PetroChina has been clearing up the previous political smog.
On August 10, the China Disciplinary Inspection and Supervision News published an article entitled Clearing the Political Smog and Inspiring the Entrepreneurial Enthusiasm of Party Members, Cadres and Officers PetroChina Clearing the Fog and Sailing Again, which reviewed the internal and external difficulties of PetroChina more than three years ago.

Externally, with the international oil price falling off a cliff and continuing to fluctuate at a low level, the survival and development of PetroChina have been impacted and challenged.Accidents occurred one after another in individual enterprises within the group, causing the public to question the corporate governance capability.
