+Annual Report 2014 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+Chairman's Statement
+In the past three years, we have deepened
+reforms throughout the company. We led mixed-
+ownership reform in China with our marketing
+business, aiming to transform the segment
+into a market orientated business through joint
+efforts with private investors. The initiative
+laid the foundations for invigorating Sinopec,
+further increase our competitiveness, advancing
+the transition to a new model of business and
+ensuring sustainable growth. We have completed
+the capital restructuring of the Yizheng
+Chemical Fiber Company, which accelerated the
+listing plan for Sinopec Group's oilfield service
+business, and we mitigated the negative impacts
+on Yizheng's shareholders by preventing the
+company from being delisted potentially due
+to three years of consecutive losses. We have
+also successfully completed the A share reform
+of the Shanghai Petrochemical Company and
+Yizheng Chemical Fiber Company, and we
+have supported Shanghai Petrochemical's
+stock option incentive plan. In addition, we
+have continuously improved our investment
+management mechanism with a focus on
+returns, establishing market-oriented operation
+mechanisms that will let each segment become
+more specialised and market-based, an initiative
+that has shown early progress.
+In the past three years, the Company has
+further enhanced its corporate governance and
+has attached great importance to increase its
+enterprise value. We return our shareholders
+and protected investor interests through an
+improved dividend policy; we set up the Social
+Responsibility Management Committee to guide
+the Company on sustainable development,
+established regulations such as Policy for
+Composition and Diversity of Board Members,
+and emphasized the roles played by Board
+committees and independent Board members;
+we continued to improve internal control
+mechanisms and our ability to execute internal
+control; and we increased corporate transparency
+by improving information disclosure and investor
+relations. Sinopec was also keen to make use of
+the capital markets for corporate development.
+With support from investors and the public, the
+Company raised a total of RMB 150 billion in
+equity through an H share private placement,
+a conversion of domestic A share convertible
+bonds, equity financing of Sinopec Canton, and
+private capital raising in the marketing segment.
+At the same time, Sinopec financed its capital
+needs through the issuance of bonds based on
+market conditions, which effectively improved its
+capital and debt structure, enhanced enterprise
+value and supported the rapid development of
+the Company.
+During the Board's three-year term, the global
+economy has seen a marginal recovery, while
+China has entered a period of adjustment
+after growing at a very high rate for more than
+30 years. The country is now phasing into a
+New Normal of slower growth, an improved
+economic structure and a shift among the
+drivers of growth. The Board has addressed
+the quality of development and returns, and it
+has focused on top-down design to implement
+strategies for resources, markets, integration,
+internationalization, differentiation, and green
+and low-carbon development. The Board's aim is
+to realize its vision of building a people-oriented,
+world-leading energy and chemical company.
+of our premium gasoline, for which growth in
+demand has been strong. Revenues for our
+non-fuel business in the marketing segment
+increased 28%. With regard to internal
+management, Sinopec effectively controlled
+costs for each business segment and conducted
+its operations safely. Our chemical feedstock
+and product mix also continued to improve due
+to the scheme of the optimisation of resources.
+The continued efforts of Sinopec management
+and employees have helped us tackle the huge
+challenge presented by the tumbling price of
+international crude in the fourth quarter of
+2014. Sinopec maintained stable production and
+improved its ability to withstand risks, further
+enhancing its level of sustainable development.
+In 2014, according to International Financial
+Reporting Standards, the Company had
+total revenues and other operating income
+of RMB 2.83 trillion, down by 1.9% from
+the previous year. Profits attributable to
+shareholders dropped by 29.7% to RMB 46.47
+billion. Taking into account the Company's
+profitability, shareholder returns and future
+development needs, the Board proposed a
+final dividend of RMB 0.11 per share, which,
+combined with the interim dividend of RMB
+0.09 per share, brings our total annual
+dividend to RMB 0.2 per share.
+In 2014, Sinopec Corp. made significant
+progress toward fulfilling the Board's core
+commitment to improve development quality
+and returns through launching our initiatives to
+deepen reform, accelerate the transition to new
+sources of growth, as well as enhance internal
+management and maintained a favorable growth
+momentum. We are delighted to see that, with
+regard to reforms, Sinopec's marketing business
+has established mixed-ownership operations by
+restructuring and introducing private capital.
+This move not only enhanced our enterprise
+value but also advanced the transition of the
+business from an oil products supplier to an
+integrated services provider. With regard to
+growth mode transformation, commercial
+operations at the Fuling shale gas field
+commenced ahead of plan with a production
+capacity of 2 billion cubic meters per year,
+making China the first country outside North
+America to develop shale gas for commercial
+use. We have also fully upgraded our refined
+oil products and raised the production volume
+On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would first
+like to express my sincerest gratitude to all of
+our shareholders and the wider community for
+your interest and support.

+At the balance sheet date, current tax assets and liabilities are offset if the Group has a legally enforceable right to set them off and also intends
+either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
+Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised based on deductible temporary differences and taxable temporary differences respectively.
+Temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases including unused tax losses and
+unused tax credits able to be utilised in subsequent years. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable
+income will be available to offset the deductible temporary differences.
+Temporary differences arise in a transaction, which is not a business combination, and at the time of transaction, does not affect accounting
+profit or taxable profit (or unused tax losses), will not result in deferred tax. Temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill
+will not result in deferred tax.
+At the balance sheet date, the amounts of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of recovery or settlement of the
+carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates that are expected to be applied in the period when the asset is recovered or the
+liability is settled in accordance with tax laws.
+The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date. If it is unlikely to obtain sufficient taxable income to offset
+against the benefit of deferred tax asset, the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets is written down. Any such write-down should be
+subsequently reversed where it becomes probable that sufficient taxable income will be available.
+At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if all the following conditions are met:
+the taxable entity has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and current tax liabilities; and
+they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on either:
+Current tax is the expected tax payable calculated at the applicable tax rate on taxable income for the year, plus any adjustment to tax payable
+in respect of previous years.
+the same taxable entity; or
+(16) Provisions
+Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a contingent event, it is probable that an outflow of economic
+benefits will be required to settle the obligations and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the effect of time value of money is material,
+provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+costs, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision of oil and gas properties.

+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+If the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. The
+amount by which the carrying amount is reduced is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. A provision for impairment loss of
+the asset is recognised accordingly. Impairment losses related to an asset unit or a set of asset units first reduce the carrying amount of any
+goodwill allocated to the asset unit or set of asset units, and then reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the asset unit or set of
+asset units on a pro rata basis. However, the carrying amount of an impaired asset will not be reduced below the highest of its individual fair
+value less costs to sell (if determinable), the present value of expected future cash flows (if determinable) and zero.
+Impairment losses for assets are not reversed.
+(13) Long-term deferred expenses
+Long-term deferred expenses are amortised on a straight-line basis over their beneficial periods.
+(14) Employee benefits
+Employee benefits are all forms of considerations and compensation given in exchange for services rendered by employees, including short term
+compensation, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long term employee benefits.
+(a) Short term compensation
+Short term compensation includes salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, employee benefits, medical insurance premiums, work-
+related injury insurance premium, maternity insurance premium, contributions to housing fund, unions and education fund and short-term
+absence with payment etc. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group shall recognise the
+short term compensation actually incurred as a liability and charged to the cost of an asset or to profit or loss in the same period, and non-
+monetary benefits are valued with the fair value.
+(b) Post-employment benefits
+The Group classifies post-empoyment benefits into either Defined Contribution Plan (DC plan) or Defined Benefit Plan (DB plan). DC plan
+means the Group only contributes a fixed amount to an independent fund and no longer bears other payment obligation; DB plan is post-
+employment benefits other than DB. In this reporting period, the post-employment benefits of the Group primarily comprise basic pension
+insurance and unemployment insurance and both of them are DC plans.
+Basic pension insurance
+Employees of the Group participate in the social insurance system established and managed by local labor and social security department.
+The Group makes basic pension insurance to the local social insurance agencies every month, at the applicable benchmarks and rates
+stipulated by the government for the benefits of its employees. After the employees retire, the local labor and social security department has
+obligations to pay them the basic pension. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group
+shall recognise the accrued amount according to the above social security provisions as a liability and charged to the cost of an asset or to
+profit or loss in the same period.
+(c) Termination benefits
+When the Group terminates the employment relationship with employees before the employment contracts expire, or provides compensation
+as an offer to encourage employees to accept voluntary redundancy, a provision for the termination benefits provided is recognised in profit
+or loss under the conditions of both the Group has a formal plan for the termination of employment or has made an offer to employees for
+voluntary redundancy, which will be implemented shortly; and the Group is not allowed to withdraw from termination plan or redundancy
+offer unilaterally.

+the disposal. Present value of expected future cash flows is the estimation of future cash flows to be generated from the use of and upon
+disposal of the asset, discounted at an appropriate pre-tax discount rate over the asset's remaining useful life.
+Repairs and maintenance (including overhauling expenses) expenses are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
+Except for the above, other borrowing costs are recognised as financial expenses in the income statement when incurred.
+Revenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits arising in the course of the Group's normal activities when the inflows result in increase in
+shareholder's equity, other than increase relating to contributions from shareholders. Revenue is recognised in profit or loss when it is probable
+that the economic benefits will flow to the Group, the revenue and costs can be measured reliably and the following respective conditions are
+met.
+(a) Revenues from sales of goods
+Revenue from the sales of goods is recognised when all of the general conditions stated above and following conditions are satisfied:
+the significant risks and rewards of ownership and title have been transferred to buyers; and
+the Group does not retain the management rights, which is normally associated with owner, on goods sold and has no control over the
+goods sold.
+Revenue from the sales of goods is measured at fair value of the considerations received or receivable under the sales contract or agreement.
+(b) Revenues from rendering services
+The Group determines the revenue from the rendering of services according to the fair value of the received or to-be received price of the
+party that receives the services as stipulated in the contract or agreement.
+At the balance sheet date, when the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably, revenue from
+rendering of services is recognised in the income statement by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction based on the
+proportion of services performed to date to the total services to be performed.
+When the outcome of rendering the services cannot be estimated reliably, revenues are recognised only to the extent that the costs incurred
+are expected to be recoverable. If the costs of rendering of services are not expected to be recoverable, the costs are recognised in profit or
+loss when incurred, and revenues are not recognised.
+(c) Interest income
+Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis with reference to the principal outstanding and the applicable effective interest rate.
+(18) Government grants
+Government grants are the gratuitous monetary assets or non-monetary assets that the Group receives from the government, excluding capital
+injection by the government as an investor. Special funds such as investment grants allocated by the government, if clearly defined in official
+documents as part of “capital reserve" are dealt with as capital contributions, and not regarded as government grants.
+Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and the Group is able to comply with
+the conditions attaching to them. Government grants in the form of monetary assets are recorded based on the amount received or receivable,
+whereas non-monetary assets are measured at fair value.
+Government grants received in relation to assets are recorded as deferred income, and recognised evenly in profit or loss over the assets’
+useful lives. Government grants received in relation to revenue are recorded as deferred income, and recognised as income in future periods as
+compensation when the associated future expenses or losses arise; or directly recognised as income in the current period as compensation for
+past expenses or losses.

+(11) Financial Instruments (Continued)
+Convertible bonds that contain an equity component
+Convertible bonds that can be converted to equity share capital at the option of the holder, where the number of shares that would be
+issued on conversion and the value of the consideration that would be received at that time do not vary, are accounted for as compound
+financial instruments which contain both a liability component and an equity component.
+At initial recognition, the liability component of the convertible bonds is measured as the present value of the future interest and principal
+payments, discounted at the market rate of interest applicable at the time of initial recognition to similar liabilities that do not have a
+conversion option. Any excess of proceeds over the amount initially recognised as the liability component is recognised as the equity
+component. Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the convertible bonds are allocated to the liability and equity components in
+proportion to the allocation of proceeds.
+Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a convertible corporate bond is measured at amortised cost using the effective
+interest method, unless it is designated at fair value through profit or loss. The equity component of a convertible corporate bond is not
+re-measured subsequent to initial recognition.
+If the convertible corporate bond is converted, the liability component, together with the equity component, is transferred to share capital
+and capital reserve (share premium). If the convertible corporate bond is redeemed, the consideration paid for the redemption, together
+with the transaction costs that relate to the redemption, are allocated to the liability and equity components. The difference between the
+allocated and carrying amounts is charged to profit or loss if it relates to the liability component or is directly recognised in equity if it
+relates to the equity component.
+- Other convertible bonds
+Convertible bonds issued with a cash settlement option and other embedded derivative features are split into liability and derivative
+components.
+(e) Convertible bonds
+A hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation is a hedge of the exposure to foreign exchange risk associated with a net investment
+in a foreign operation. The portion of the gain or loss on a hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised
+directly in equity as a separate component until the disposal of the foreign operation, at which time the cumulative gain or loss
+recognised directly in equity is recognised in profit or loss. The ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss. The Group
+had no hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation during this year.
+Hedge of net investment in foreign operation
+When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the Group
+discontinues prospectively the hedge accounting treatments. If the hedged item is a financial instrument measured at amortised cost, any
+adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item is amortised to profit or loss from the adjustment date to the maturity date using
+the recalculated effective interest rate at the adjustment date.

+Cash flow hedges
+A cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows. The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that
+is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised directly in shareholders' equity as a separate component. That effective portion is
+adjusted to the lesser of the following (in absolute amounts):
+the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument from inception of the hedge;
+the cumulative change in present value of the expected future cash flows on the hedged item from inception of the hedge.
+The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an ineffective hedge is recognised in profit or loss.
+If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the associated
+gain or loss is removed from shareholders' equity, included in the initial cost of the non-financial asset or liability, and recognised in profit
+or loss in the same year during which the financial asset or financial liability affects profit or loss. However, if the Group expects that all
+or a portion of a net loss recognised directly in shareholders' equity will not be recovered in future accounting periods, it reclassifies the
+amount that is not expected to be recovered into profit or loss.
+If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the associated gain
+or loss is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss in the same period during which the financial asset or financial liability
+affects profit or loss. However, if the Group expects that all or a portion of a net loss recognised directly in shareholders' equity will not
+be recovered in future accounting periods, it reclassifies the amount that is not expected to be recovered into profit or loss.
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding two policy statements, the associated gain or loss is removed from
+shareholders' equity and recognised in profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecast transaction affects
+profit or loss.
+When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting,
+the Group will discontinue the hedge accounting treatments prospectively. In this case, the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that
+remains recognised directly in shareholders' equity from the period when the hedge was effective shall not be reclassified into profit or
+loss and is recognised in accordance with the above policy when the forecast transaction occurs. If the forecast transaction is no longer
+expected to occur, the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that remains recognised directly in shareholders' equity from the period
+when the hedge was effective shall be reclassified into profit or loss immediately.
+Fair value hedges
+A fair value hedge is a hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm
+commitment, or an identified portion of such an asset, liability or unrecognised firm commitment.
+The gain or loss from re-measuring the hedging instrument at fair value is recognised in profit or loss. The gain or loss on the hedged
+item attributable to the hedged risk adjusts the carrying amount of the hedged item and is recognised in profit or loss.
+At initial recognition, the derivative component of the convertible bonds is measured at fair value. Any excess of proceeds over the amount
+initially recognised as the derivative component is recognised as the liability component. Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the
+convertible bonds are allocated to the liability and derivative components in proportion to the allocation of proceeds. The portion of the
+transaction costs relating to the liability component is recognised initially as part of the liability. The portion relating to the derivative
+component is recognised immediately as an expense in profit or loss.
+The derivative component is subsequently remeasured at each balance sheet date and any gains or losses arising from change in the
+fair value are recognised in profit or loss. The liability component is subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest
+method until extinguished on conversion or redemption. Both the liability and the related derivative components are presented together
+for financial statements reporting purposes.
+If the convertible bonds are converted, the carrying amounts of the derivative and liability components are transferred to share capital
+and share premium as consideration for the shares issued. If the convertible bonds are redeemed, any difference between the amount
+paid and the carrying amount of both components is recognised in profit or loss.
+(f) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
+Where impairment is assessed on an individual basis, an impairment loss in respect of a receivable or held-to-maturity investment is
+calculated as the excess of its carrying amount over the present value of the estimated future cash flows (exclusive of future credit losses
+that have not been incurred) discounted at the original effective interest rate. All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.
+Impairment loss on receivables and held-to-maturity investments is reversed in profit or loss if evidence suggests that the financial assets'
+carrying amounts have increased and the reason for the increase is objectively as a result of an event occurred after the recognition of the
+impairment loss. The reversed carrying amount shall not exceed the amortised cost if the financial assets had no impairment recognised.
+― Available-for-sale financial assets
+Available-for-sale financial assets are assessed for impairment on an individual basis. Objective evidence of impairment for equity
+instruments classified as available-for-sale includes information about significant but not temporary decline in the fair value of the equity
+investment instrument below its cost. The Group assesses equity instruments classified as available-for-sale separately at the end of
+each reporting period, it will be considered as impaired if the fair value of the equity instrument at reporting date is less than its initial
+investment cost over 50% (including 50%) or the duration of the fair value below its initial investment cost is more than one (including
+one) year, if the fair value of the equity instrument at reporting date is less than its initial investment cost over 20% (including 20%) but
+below 50%, other related factors such as price volatility will be taken into consideration to assess if it is impaired.
+When available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value are impaired, despite not being derecognised, the cumulative losses
+resulted from the decrease in fair value which had previously been recognised directly in shareholders' equity, are reversed and charged
+to profit or loss.
+When available-for-sale financial assets measured at cost are impaired, the differences between the book value and the discounted present
+value with the market return of similar financial assets are charged to profit or loss.
+(b) Impairment of other non-financial long-term assets
+Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date for indications that the following assets, including fixed
+assets, oil and gas properties, construction in progress, goodwill, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly
+controlled entities may be impaired.
+Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
+The recoverable amounts of goodwill and intangible assets with uncertain useful lives are estimated annually no matter there are any
+indications of impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment together with related asset units or groups of asset units.
+An asset unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets
+or groups of assets. An asset unit comprises related assets that generate associated cash inflows. In identifying an asset unit, the Group
+primarily considers whether the asset unit is able to generate cash inflows independently as well as the management style of production and
+operational activities, and the decision for the use or disposal of asset.
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash flows generated by the
+asset (or asset unit, set of asset units).

+(a) Impairment of financial assets
+The carrying amount of financial assets (except those financial assets stated at fair value with changes in the fair values charged to profit or
+loss) are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. If any such evidence exists,
+impairment loss is provided.

+(e) enterprises or individuals if a party has control, joint control over both the enterprises or individuals and the Group;
+Impairment loss of available-for-sale debt instrument is reversed, if the reason for the subsequent increase in fair value is objectively as
+a result of an event occurred after the recognition of the impairment loss. Impairment loss for available-for-sale equity instrument is not
+reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss for available-for-sale financial assets measured by the cost cannot be reversed in the
+following period.

+At 31 December 2014, certain subsidiaries of the Company did not recognise deferred tax of deductable loss carried forward of RMB17,085 million
+(2013: RMB 10,809 million), of which RMB 6,996 million (2013: RMB 2,638 million) was incurred for the year ended 31 December 2014, because
+it was not probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. These deductable losses carried forward of RMB 325 million, RMB 3,344 million,
+RMB 3,786 million, RMB 2,634 million and RMB 6,996 million will expire in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and after, respectively.
+Periodically, management performed assessment on the probability that future taxable profit will be available over the period which the deferred tax
+assets can be realised or utilised. In assessing the probability, both positive and negative evidence was considered, including whether it is probable
+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the
+tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur. During the year ended 31 December 2014, write-down of deferred tax assets

+Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchase over the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities. The recoverable amounts of the
+above cash generating units are determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial
+budgets approved by management covering a one-year period and pre-tax discount rates primarily ranging from 10.0% to 10.9% (2013: 11.5%
+to 12.7%). Cash flows beyond the one-year period are maintained constant. Based on the estimated recoverable amount, no impairment loss was
+recognised.
+Key assumptions used for cash flow forecasts for these entities are the gross margin and sales volume. Management determined the budgeted gross
+margin based on the gross margin achieved in the period immediately before the budget period and management's expectation on the future trend
+of the prices of crude oil and petrochemical products. The sales volume was based on the production capacity and/or the sales volume in the period
+immediately before the budget period.
+16 LONG-TERM DEFERRED EXPENSES
+Long-term deferred expenses primarily represent prepaid rental expenses over one year and catalysts expenditures.

+12 FIXED ASSETS (Continued)
+The additions to oil and gas properties of the Group and the Company for the year ended 31 December 2014 included RMB 3,309 million (2013:
+RMB 4,188 million) (Note 30) and RMB 2,834 million (2013: RMB 3,345 million), respectively of the estimated dismantlement costs for site
+restoration.
+Impairment losses on fixed assets for the year ended 31 December 2014 primarily represent impairment losses recognised in the exploration and
+production ("E&P") segment of RMB 2,436 million (2013: RMB 2,523 million) on fixed assets and for the chemicals segment of RMB 917 million
+(2013: RMB 0 million) of fixed assets. The primary factor resulting in the E&P segment impairment losses was unsuccessful development drilling
+and high operating and development costs for certain oil fields. The carrying values of these E&P properties were written down to recoverable
+amounts which were determined based on the present values of the expected future cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.13%
+(2013: 10.70%). The assets in the chemicals segment were written down due to the suspension of operations of certain production facilities.
+At 31 December 2014 and 2013, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fixed assets which were pledged.
+At 31 December 2014 and 2013, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fixed assets which were temporarily idle or pending for
+disposal.
+At 31 December 2014 and 2013, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fully depreciated fixed assets which were still in use.

+exercise of conversion by the holders of the 2011 Convertible Bonds.
+All A shares and H shares rank pari passu in all material aspects.
+Capital management
+Management optimises the structure of the Group's capital, which comprises of equity and debts. In order to maintain or adjust the capital
+structure of the Group, management may cause the Group to issue new shares, adjust the capital expenditure plan, sell assets to reduce debt, or
+adjust the proportion of short-term and long-term loans. Management monitors capital on the basis of the debt-to-capital ratio, which is calculated
+by dividing long-term loans (excluding current portion), including long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries,
+by the total of equity attributable to owners of the Company and long-term loans (excluding current portion), and liability-to-asset ratio, which is
+calculated by dividing total liabilities by total assets. Management's strategy is to make appropriate adjustments according to the Group's operating
+and investment needs and the changes of market conditions, and to maintain the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group at
+a range considered reasonable. As at 31 December 2014, the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group were 20.2% (2013:
+20.3%) and 55.4% (2013: 54.9%), respectively.
+The schedule of the contractual maturities of loans and commitments are disclosed in Notes 28 and 53, respectively.
+There were no changes in the management's approach to capital management of the Group during the year. Neither the Company nor any of its
+subsidiaries is subject to externally imposed capital requirements

+unexercised portion of the Bond with Warrants at the expiration date, and the amount transferred from the proportionate liability component and

+Annual Report 2014 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+The initial recognition of the liability component of the Bond with Warrants is measured at the present value of the future interest and principal payments, discounted
+at the market rate of interest applicable at the time of initial recognition to similar liabilities that do not have a conversion option. Interest expense is calculated using
+the effective interest method by applying the market interest rate of 5.40% to the liability component. On 4 March 2010, warrants of the bonds have already expired.
+The Bonds with Warrants were due on 20 February 2014 and have been fully paid by the Group at maturity.
+(iv) On 26 February 2008, the Company issued bonds with stock warrants due 2014 with an aggregate principal amount of RMB 30 billion in the PRC (the "Bonds with
+Warrants"). The Bonds with Warrants, which bear a fixed interest rate of 0.80% per annum payable annually, were issued at par value of RMB 100. The Bonds with
+Warrants are guaranteed by Sinopec Group Company.
+The initial carrying amount of the liability component of the 2007 Convertible Bonds is the residual amount, which is after deducting the allocated issuance cost of the
+2007 Convertible Bonds relating to the liability component and the fair value of the derivative component as at 24 April 2007. Interest expense is calculated using the
+effective interest method by applying the effective interest rate of 4.19% to the adjusted liability component.
+The changes in the fair value of the derivative component from 31 December 2013 to 24 April 2014 resulted in realised loss of RMB 1 million (2013: an unrealised
+gain of RMB 114 million), which has been recorded under "gain from changes in fair value" in the consolidated income statement for the year ended 31 December
+2014.
+77,785
+The Company redeemed some of the 2007 Convertible Bonds in 2011 at an early redemption amount of the principal amount of HKD 39 million.
+The 2007 Convertible Bonds were due on 24 April 2014 and have been fully paid by the Group at maturity.
+(ii) These corporate bonds are guaranteed by Sinopec Group Company and carried at amortised cost.
+The Company issued 270-day corporate bonds of face value RMB 10 billion to corporate investors in the PRC debenture market on 15 August 2013 at par value of
+RMB 100. The effective yield of the 270-day corporate bonds is 4.49% per annum. The short-term bonds were due on 13 May 2014 and have been fully paid by the
+Group at maturity.
+(i) The Company issued 180-day corporate bonds of face value RMB 10 billion to corporate investors in the PRC debenture market on 19 May 2014 at par value of RMB
+100. The effective yield of the 180-day corporate bonds is 4.40% per annum. The short-term bonds were due on 16 November 2014 and have been fully paid by the
+Group at maturity.

+(iii) On 24 April 2007, the Company issued zero coupon convertible bonds due 2014 with an aggregate principal amount of HKD 11.7 billion (the "2007 Convertible
+Bonds"). The 2007 Convertible Bonds are convertible into shares of the Company from 4 June 2007 onwards at a price of HKD 10.76 per share, subject to adjustment
+for subdivision or consolidation of shares, bonus issues, rights issues, capital distribution, change of control and other events, which have a dilutive effect on the
+issued share capital of the Company ("the Conversion Option"). Unless previously redeemed, converted or purchased and cancelled, the 2007 Convertible Bonds will be
+redeemed on the maturity date at 121.069% of the principal amount. The Company has an early redemption option at any time after 24 April 2011 (subject to certain
+criteria) ("the Early Redemption Option") and a cash settlement option when the holders exercise their conversion right ("the Cash Settlement Option").

+On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts, circumstances and conditions

+of its equity interests held by the Company in exchange for the transfer of its outgoing business to the Company and issued shares to
+Sinopec Group Company for the acquisition of 100% equity interest of Sinopec Oilfield Service Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
+Sinopec Group Company). These transactions were completed in December 2014 (Note 52).
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have to
+be met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as "proved". Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated at
+least annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels change
+from year to year, the estimate of proved and proved developed reserves also changes. This change is considered a change in estimate for
+accounting purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in related depreciation rates.
+441
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment
+expense and future dismantlement costs. Depreciation rates are determined based on estimated proved developed reserve quantities (the
+denominator) and capitalised costs of producing properties (the numerator). Producing properties' capitalised costs are amortised based on the
+unit-of-production method.

+If the costs of inventories become higher than their net realisable values, an allowance for diminution in value of inventories is recognised.
+Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the
+estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Management bases the estimates on all available information, including the current market prices of
+the finished goods and raw materials, and historical operating costs. If the actual selling prices were to be lower or the costs of completion were
+to be higher than estimated, the actual allowance for diminution in value of inventories would be higher than estimated.
+(e) Allowance for diminution in value of inventories
+Management estimates impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts resulting from the inability of the Group's customers to make the required
+payments. Management bases the estimates on the ageing of the accounts receivable balance, customer credit-worthiness, and historical write-
+off experience. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, actual write-offs would be higher than estimated.
+(d) Allowances for doubtful accounts
+Fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account the estimated residual
+value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets at least annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense
+to be recorded during any reporting year. The useful lives are based on the Group's historical experience with similar assets and taking into
+account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future years is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous
+estimates.
+(c) Depreciation
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered "impaired", and
+an impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with "ASBE 8 - Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are
+reviewed periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested
+for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such
+a decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually.
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and the value in use. It is difficult to precisely estimate selling price because
+quoted market prices for the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining the value in use, expected cash
+flows generated by the asset or the cash-generating unit are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to
+sales volume, selling price and amount of operating costs. The Group uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a
+reasonable approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sales
+volume, selling price and amount of operating costs.

+52 PRINCIPAL SUBSIDIARIES (Continued)
+Note:
+(i) The Group consolidated the financial statements of the entity because it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has
+the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
+(ii) Pursuant to the Share Repurchase Agreement and Disposal Agreement entered into between the Company and Yizheng Chemical Fibre Co., Ltd. on 12 September
+2014, Yizheng Chemical Fibre Co., Ltd. repurchased and cancelled the 40.25% of its equity interests held by the Company in exchange for the transfer of its outgoing
+business to the Company, pursuant to which this business was injected into Sinopec Yizheng Chemical Fibre Limited Liability Company.
+Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement between Sinopec Group Company and Yizheng Chemical Fibre Co., Ltd. on the same date, Yizheng Chemical Fibre Co., Ltd.
+issued shares to Sinopec Group Company for the acquisition of a 100% equity interest of Sinopec Oilfield Service Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sinopec
+Group Company). The above transactions were inter-conditional and were completed in December 2014.
+The Group accounted for the transaction pursuant to the Share Repurchase Agreement as a transaction with minority interests since the control of business had not
+been lost, which resulted in an increase in capital reserve of the Group's consolidated financial statement amounting to RMB 3,227 million and decrease of minority
+interests amounting to RMB 2,867 million.
+(iii) During the year ended 31 December 2014, the Company increased its investment in GWEC by RMB 5,712 million. Further, on 1 August 2014, GWEC acquired an
+additional 45% of the equity interest in shares in Ningxia Nenghua (GWEC previously held a 50% equity interest) and obtained control of Ningxia Nenghua (a coal
+chemical producer) which the Group accounted for as a subsidiary of GWEC thereafter. The cash consideration was RMB 2,593 million. The fair value of the 50%
+equity interest held before the business combination is RMB 2,881 million. The fair value of the assets and liabilities of Ningxia Nenghua primarily include construction
+in progress (RMB 14,094million), fixed assets (RMB 3,293 million) and borrowings (RMB11,862 million) and no goodwill has arisen from the business combination.

+The Group monitors the conditions that are subject to the guarantees to identify whether it is probable that a loss has occurred, and recognises any
+such losses under guarantees when those losses are estimable. At 31 December 2014 and 2013, it was not probable that the Group will be required
+to make payments under the guarantees. Thus no liabilities have been accrued for a loss related to the Group's obligation under these guarantee
+arrangements.
+Environmental contingencies
+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect the Group's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature and
+extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development areas,
+whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv) changes
+in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is indeterminable
+due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be
+required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot reasonably be estimated at
+present, and could be material. The Group paid normal routine pollutant discharge fees of approximately RMB5,352 million for the year ended 31
+December 2014 (2013: RMB 5,154 million).
+Legal contingencies
+The Group is a defendant in certain lawsuits as well as the named party in other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.
+Management has assessed the likelihood of an unfavourable outcome of such contingencies, lawsuits or other proceedings and believes that any
+resulting liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, operating results or cash flows of the Group.
+55 SEGMENT REPORTING
+Segment information is presented in respect of the Group's operating segments. The format is based on the Group's management and internal
+reporting structure.
+In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of
+resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has identified the following five reportable segments. No operating segments have been
+aggregated to form the following reportable segments.

+segment of the Group and external customers.

+Except for the above items, the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair values
+at 31 December 2014 and 2013.
+Other unquoted equity investments are individually and in the aggregate not material to the Group's financial position or results of operations.
+There are no listed market prices for such interests in the PRC and, accordingly, a reasonable estimate of fair value could not be made without
+incurring excessive costs. The Group intends to hold these unquoted equity investments for long term purpose.
+The Group has not developed an internal valuation model necessary to make the estimate of the fair value of loans from Sinopec Group Company
+and fellow subsidiaries as it is not considered practicable to estimate their fair value because the cost of obtaining discount and borrowing rates
+for comparable borrowings would be excessive based on the Reorganisation of the Group, its existing capital structure and the terms of the
+borrowings.

+As at 31 December 2014, it is estimated that an increase of 20% in the Company's own share price would decrease the Group's profit for the year
+by approximately RMB 2,730 million (2013: RMB 1,333 million); a decrease of 20% in the Company's own share price would increase the Group's
+profit for the year by approximately RMB 2,702 million (2013: RMB 737 million). The sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the
+changes in the Company's own share price had occurred at the balance sheet date and that all other variables remain constant. The analysis is
+performed on the same basis for 2013.
+The Group is exposed to equity price risk arising from changes in the Company's own share price to the extent that the Company's own equity
+instruments underlie the fair values of derivatives of the Group. As at 31 December 2014, the Group's exposure to equity price risk is the derivatives
+embedded in the 2011 Convertible Bonds and the 2011 Convertible Bonds issued by the Company as disclosed in Note 29 (v).
+Equity price risk
+At 31 December 2014, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of USD 10 per barrel in crude oil and refined oil products, with all other
+variables held constant, would decrease/increase the Group's profit for the year by approximately RMB 1,167 million (2013: increase/decrease
+RMB 18 million), and increase/decrease the Group's capital reserve by approximately RMB 2,206 million (2013: increase/decrease RMB 2,806
+million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the
+change was applied to the Group's derivative financial instruments at that date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed
+on the same basis for 2013.
+At 31 December 2014, the Group had certain commodity contracts of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products designated as
+qualified cash flow hedges and economic hedges. At 31 December 2014, the net fair value of such derivative hedging financial instruments is
+derivative financial assets of RMB 12,622 million (2013: RMB 4,577 million) recognised in other receivables and derivative financial liabilities of
+RMB 18,990 million (2013: RMB 2,476 million) recognised in other payables.
+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products
+and chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the
+Group. The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps, to manage a portion of such risk.

+OPINION
+We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
+An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The
+procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial
+statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation
+of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
+not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
+of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
+consolidated financial statements.
+We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
+Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
+consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
+Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit and to report our opinion solely to you, as a
+body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

+Exploration and production
+The Group's interest rate risk exposure arises primarily from its short-term and long-term loans. Loans carrying interest at variable rates and
+at fixed rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk respectively. The interest rates and terms of
+repayment of short-term and long-term loans of the Group are disclosed in Note 20 and Note 28, respectively.

+Carrying
+The following table sets out the remaining contractual maturities at the balance sheet date of the Group's financial liabilities, which are based on
+contractual undiscounted cash flows (including interest payments computed using contractual rates or, if floating, based on prevailing rates current
+at the balance sheet date) and the earliest date the Group would be required to repay:
+At 31 December 2014, the Group has standby credit facilities with several PRC financial institutions which provide the Group to borrow up to RMB
+302,570 million (2013: RMB 289,106 million) on an unsecured basis, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.51% (2013: 3.12%). At 31 December
+2014, the Group's outstanding borrowings under these facilities were RMB 78,983 million (2013: RMB 44,966 million) and were included in loans.
+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group encounters short fall of capital when meeting its obligation of financial liabilities. The Group's approach to
+managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal
+and stressed capital conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. The Group prepares monthly
+cash flow budget to ensure that they will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligation as they fall due. The Group arranges and
+negotiates financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the liquidity risk.
+Liquidity risk
+The carrying amounts of cash at bank, trade accounts and bills receivables, derivative financial instruments and other receivables, represent the
+Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets.
+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations,
+and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions and receivables from customers. To limit exposure to credit risk
+relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial institution in the PRC with acceptable credit ratings. The
+majority of the Group's accounts receivable relates to sales of petroleum and chemical products to related parties and third parties operating in
+the petroleum and chemical industries. The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does
+not require collateral on accounts receivable. The Group maintains an impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within
+management's expectations.
+Credit risk
+The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, and set appropriate risk limits and
+controls to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
+conditions and the Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and
+constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. Internal audit department undertakes both regular
+and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Group's audit committee.
+The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework, and developing
+and monitoring the Group's risk management policies.

+(f) According to relevant PRC regulations, the Group is required to transfer an amount to other reserves for the safety production fund based on the turnover of certain
+refining and chemicals products or based on the production volume of crude oil and natural gas. During the year ended 31 December 2014, the Group transferred RMB 1,065
+million from other reserves to retained earnings for the net use of safety production fund (2013: RMB 1,994 million).
+(e) The application of the share premium account is governed by Sections 167 and 168 of the PRC Company Law.
+(d) The capital reserve represents (i) the difference between the total amount of the par value of shares issued and the amount of the net assets transferred from Sinopec
+Group Company in connection with the Reorganisation; and (ii) the difference between the considerations paid over the amount of the net assets of entities and related
+operations acquired from Sinopec Group Company and non-controlling interests.
+(c) According to the Company's Articles of Association, the amount of retained earnings available for distribution to owners of the Company is the lower of the amount
+determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE and the amount determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with
+International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. At 31 December 2014, the amount of retained earnings
+available for distribution was RMB 166,481 million (2013: RMB 164,698 million), being the amount determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying
+with IFRS. Final dividend for the year ended 31 December 2014 of RMB 13,318 million (2013: RMB 17,519 million) proposed after the balance sheet date has not been
+recognised as a liability at the balance sheet date.
+(b) The usage of the discretionary surplus reserve is similar to that of statutory surplus reserve.
+(a) According to the Company's Articles of Association, the Company is required to transfer 10% of its net profit determined in accordance with the accounting policies
+complying with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("ASBE"), adopted by the Group to statutory surplus reserve. In the event that the reserve balance reaches
+50% of the registered capital, no transfer is required. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of a dividend to shareholders. Statutory surplus reserve
+can be used to make good previous years' losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing of new shares to shareholders in proportion to their existing
+shareholdings or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.
+During the year ended 31 December 2014, the Company transferred RMB 3,215 million (2013: RMB 5,734 million), being 10% of the current year's net profit determined
+in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE to this reserve.

+Basis of preparation
+As part of the Reorganisation, certain of Sinopec Group Company's core oil and gas and chemical operations and businesses together with the
+related assets and liabilities were transferred to the Company. On 25 February 2000, in consideration for Sinopec Group Company transferring such
+oil and gas and chemical operations and businesses and the related assets and liabilities to the Company, the Company issued 68.8 billion domestic
+state-owned ordinary shares with a par value of RMB 1.00 each to Sinopec Group Company. The shares issued to Sinopec Group Company on 25
+February 2000 represented the entire registered and issued share capital of the Company on that date. The oil and gas and chemical operations and
+businesses transferred to the Company were related to (i) the exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas, (ii) the refining,
+transportation, storage and marketing of crude oil and petroleum products, and (iii) the production and sales of chemicals.
+The Company was established in the PRC on 25 February 2000 as a joint stock limited company as part of the reorganisation (the "Reorganisation")
+of China Petrochemical Corporation ("Sinopec Group Company"), the ultimate holding company of the Group and a ministry-level enterprise under
+the direct supervision of the State Council of the PRC. Prior to the incorporation of the Company, the oil and gas and chemical operations of the
+Group were carried on by oil administration bureaux, petrochemical and refining production enterprises and sales and marketing companies of
+Sinopec Group Company.
+Organisation
+China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (the "Company") is an energy and chemical company that, through its subsidiaries (hereinafter collectively
+referred to as the "Group"), engages in oil and gas and chemical operations in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"). Oil and gas operations
+consist of exploring for, developing and producing crude oil and natural gas; transporting crude oil and natural gas by pipelines; refining crude oil
+into finished petroleum products; and marketing crude oil, natural gas and refined petroleum products. Chemical operations include the manufacture
+and marketing of a wide range of chemicals for industrial uses.

+IFRS includes International Accounting Standards ("IAS") and related interpretations ("IFRIC"). These financial statements also comply with the
+applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. The consolidated
+financial statements are prepared in accordance with the applicable requirements of the predecessor Companies Ordinance (Cap. 32) for this
+financial year and the comparative period. A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted by the Group are set out in Note 2.

+(a) New and amended standards and interpretations adopted by the Group
+The following relevant IFRSS, amendments to existing IFRSS and interpretation of IFRS have been published and are mandatory for the year
+beginning on or after 1 January 2014 or later periods and have been adopted by the Group in current accounting period:
+Amendment to IAS 32, 'Financial instruments: Presentation', regarding the asset and liability offsetting. The main changes are to the application
+guidance in IAS 32, 'Financial instruments: Presentation', and clarify some of the requirements for offsetting financial assets and financial
+liabilities on the balance sheet.
+Annual Report 2014 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+Key assumptions and estimation made by management in the application of IFRS that have significant effect on the financial statements and the
+major sources of estimation uncertainty are disclosed in Note 42.
+The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in
+which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both
+current and future periods.
+The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that
+affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
+the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The estimates and associated assumptions are
+based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form
+the basis of making the judgements about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
+results could differ from those estimates.
+In addition, the requirements of Part 9 "Accounts and Audit" of the new Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622) come into operation as
+from the Company's first financial year commencing on or after 3 March 2014 in accordance with section 358 of that Ordinance. The Group is in
+the process of making an assessment of expected impact of the changes in the Companies Ordinance on the consolidated financial statements
+in the period of initial application of Part 9 of the new Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622). So far it has concluded that the impact is
+unlikely to be significant and only the presentation and the disclosure of information in the consolidated financial statements will be affected.
+The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except for the remeasurement of available-for-sale securities
+(Note 2(k)), securities held for trading (Note 2(k)), derivative financial instruments (Note 2(1) and (m)) and derivative component of the
+convertible bonds (Note 2(q)) to their fair values.
+(c) New Hong Kong Companies Ordinance
+IFRS 15, 'Revenue from contracts with customers'. IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining when to recognise revenue
+and how much revenue to recognise through a 5-step approach. IFRS 15 provides specific guidance on capitalisation of contract cost and licence
+arrangements. It also includes a cohesive set of disclosure requirements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash
+flows arising from the entity's contracts with customers. The core principle is that a company should recognise revenue to depict the transfer
+of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in
+exchange for those goods or services. IFRS 15 replaces the previous revenue standards: IAS 18 'Revenue' and IAS 11 'Construction Contracts'
+and the related Interpretations on revenue recognition: IFRIC 13 'Customer Loyalty Programmes', IFRIC 15 ‘Agreements for the Construction of
+Real Estate', IFRIC 18 'Transfers of Assets from Customers' and SIC-31 'Revenue-Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services'.
+Amendment to IFRS 11 on accounting for acquisitions of interests in joint operations. The amendment requires an investor to apply the
+principles of business combination accounting when it acquires an interest in a joint operation that constitutes a 'business' (as defined in IFRS 3,
+Business combinations). Specifically, an investor will need to: (1) measure identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value; (2) expense acquisition-
+related costs; (3) recognise deferred tax; and (4) recognise the residual as goodwill. All other principles of business combination accounting
+apply unless they conflict with IFRS 11. The amendment is applicable to both the acquisition of the initial interest and a further interest in a
+joint operation. The previously held interest is not remeasured when the acquisition of an additional interest in the same joint operation with
+joint control maintained.
+Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 on sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The amendments
+address an inconsistency between IFRS 10 and IAS 28 in the sale and contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint
+venture. A full gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves a business. A partial gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves
+assets that do not constitute a business, even if those assets are in a subsidiary.

+IFRS 9, 'Financial instruments', addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The
+complete version of IFRS 9 was issued in July 2014. It replaces the whole of IAS 39. IFRS 9 introduces a new model for the recognition of
+impairment losses - the expected credit losses (ECL) model, which constitutes a change from the incurred loss model in IAS 39. IFRS 9
+applies to all hedging relationships, with the exception of portfolio fair value hedges of interest rate risk. The new guidance better aligns hedge
+accounting with the risk management activities of an entity and provides relief from the more “rule-based" approach of IAS 39.
+The following relevant IFRSS, amendments to existing IFRSS and interpretation of IFRS have been published and are mandatory for accounting
+periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015 or later periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. Management is in the process
+of making an assessment of what the impact of these amendments, new standards and new interpretations is expected to be in the period of
+initial application and has so far concluded that the adoption of these amendments, new standards and new interpretations is unlikely to have a
+significant impact on the Group's results of operations and financial position.
+(b) New and amended standards and interpretations not yet adopted by the Group
+There have been no significant changes to the accounting policies applied in these financial statements for the periods presented as a result of
+these developments.
+Adoption of IFRIC 21, 'Levies'. IFRIC 21 addresses the accounting for a liability to pay a levy if that liability is within the scope of IAS 37
+'Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets'. The interpretation addresses what the obligating event is that gives rise to pay a levy,
+and when should a liability be recognised. The accounting treatment of levy of the Group conforms to the requirement of IFRIC 21. The adoption
+of the interpretation has had no significant effect on the financial statements for earlier periods and on the financial statements for the year
+ended 31 December 2014.
+Amendment to IAS 39, 'Financial instruments: Recognition and measurement ‘. This amendment provides relief from discontinuing hedge
+accounting when novation of a hedging instrument to a central counterparty meets specified criteria.
+Amendment to IAS 36, 'Impairment of assets' regarding recoverable amount disclosures. The main change addresses the disclosure of
+information about the recoverable amount of impaired assets if that amount is based on fair value less costs of disposal.

+(ii) Other convertible bonds
+Convertible bonds issued with a cash settlement option and other embedded derivative features are accounted for as compound financial
+instruments that contain a liability component and a derivative component.
+At initial recognition, the derivative component of the convertible bonds is measured at fair value. Any excess of proceeds over the amount
+initially recognised as the derivative component is recognised as the liability component. Transaction costs that relate to the issuance of
+the convertible bonds are allocated to the liability and derivative components in proportion to the allocation of proceeds. The portion of
+the transaction costs relating to the liability component is recognised initially as part of the liability. The portion relating to the derivative
+component is recognised immediately as an expense in the consolidated income statement.
+The derivative component is subsequently remeasured at each balance sheet date and any gains or losses arising from change in the
+fair value are recognised in the consolidated income statement. The liability component is subsequently carried at amortised cost until
+extinguished on conversion or redemption. The interest expense recognised in the consolidated income statement on the liability component
+is calculated using the effective interest method. Both the liability and the related derivative components are presented together for financial
+statements reporting purposes.
+If the convertible bonds are converted, the carrying amounts of the derivative and liability components are transferred to share capital and
+share premium as consideration for the shares issued. If the convertible bonds are redeemed, any difference between the amount paid and
+the carrying amounts of both components is recognised in the consolidated income statement.
+(r) Provisions and contingent liability
+A provision is recognised for liability of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a
+past event, when it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made.
+When it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is
+disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only
+be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability
+of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+cost, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision and oil and gas properties.

+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2014
+(s) Revenue recognition
+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+If the bond is converted, the capital reserve, together with the carrying amount of the liability component at the time of conversion, is
+transferred to share capital and share premium as consideration for the shares issued. If the bond is redeemed, the capital reserve is
+transferred to share premium.
+Interest income is recognised on a time apportioned basis that takes into account the effective yield on the asset.
+Revenues associated with the sale of crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemical products and ancillary materials are recorded when the
+customer accepts the goods and the significant risks and rewards of ownership and title have been transferred to the buyer. Revenue from the
+rendering of services is recognised in the consolidated income statement upon performance of the services. No revenue is recognised if there are
+significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due, the possible return of goods, or when the amount of revenue and the costs
+incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction cannot be measured reliably.
+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+At initial recognition, the liability component of the convertible bonds is measured as the present value of the future interest and principal
+payments, discounted at the market rate of interest applicable at the time of initial recognition to similar liabilities that do not have a
+conversion option. Any excess of proceeds over the amount initially recognised as the liability component is recognised as the equity
+component. Transaction costs that relate to the issuance of the convertible bonds are allocated to the liability and equity components in
+proportion to the allocation of proceeds.
+(ii) Impairment of other long-lived assets is accounted as follows:
+The carrying amounts of other long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, construction in progress, lease prepayments and
+other assets, are reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify indicators that the assets may be impaired. These assets are tested for
+impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such
+a decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated at each
+balance sheet date.
+A government grant that becomes receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred with no future related costs is recognised
+as income in the period in which it becomes receivable.
+For investments in associates and joint ventures accounted under the equity method (Note 2(a) (ii)), the impairment loss is measured by
+comparing the recoverable amount of the investment as a whole with its carrying amount in accordance with the accounting policy set out
+in Note 2(n) (ii). The impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable
+amount in accordance with the accounting policy set out in Note 2(n) (ii).
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the value in use. In determining the value in use, expected future
+cash flows generated by the asset are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments
+of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those
+from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e. a
+cash-generating unit).
+The amount of the reduction is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect
+of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then, to
+reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced
+below its individual fair value less costs to sell, or value in use, if determinable.
+Management assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for a long-lived asset,
+except in the case of goodwill, in prior years may no longer exist. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the
+estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. A subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset, when the circumstances
+and events that led to the write-down or write-off cease to exist, is recognised as an income. The reversal is reduced by the amount that
+would have been recognised as depreciation had the write-down or write-off not occurred. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not
+reversed.
+Financial Statements (International)
+The liability component is subsequently carried at amortised cost. The interest expense on the liability component is calculated using the
+effective interest method. The equity component is recognised in the capital reserve until the bond is converted or redeemed.

+for the year ended 31 December 2014
+(o) Trade, bills and other payables
+Trade, bills and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would
+be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
+(p) Interest-bearing borrowings
+Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-
+bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the consolidated
+income statement over the period of borrowings using the effective interest method.
+(q) Convertible bonds
+(i) Convertible bonds that contain an equity component
+Convertible bonds that can be converted to equity share capital at the option of the holder, where the number of shares that would be issued
+on conversion and the value of the consideration that would be received at that time do not vary, are accounted for as compound financial
+instruments that contain both a liability component and an equity component.

+Repairs and maintenance expenditure is expensed as incurred.
+(v) Environmental expenditures
+Environmental expenditures that relate to current ongoing operations or to conditions caused by past operations are expensed as incurred.
+Liabilities related to future remediation costs are recorded when environmental assessments and/or cleanups are probable and the costs can be
+reasonably estimated. As facts concerning environmental contingencies become known to the Group, the Group reassesses its position both with
+respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.
+(w) Research and development expense
+Research and development expenditures are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Research and development expense amounted to
+RMB 5,623 million for the year ended 31 December 2014 (2013: RMB 6,335 million).
+(x) Operating leases
+Operating lease payments are charged to the consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the respective leases.
+(y) Employee benefits
+The contributions payable under the Group's retirement plans are recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement as incurred
+and according to the contribution determined by the plans. Further information is set out in Note 38.
+Termination benefits, such as employee reduction expenses, are recognised when, and only when, the Group demonstrably commits itself to
+terminate employment or to provide benefits as a result of voluntary redundancy by having a detailed formal plan which is without realistic
+possibility of withdrawal.
+(z) Income tax
+Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is calculated on taxable income by applying the applicable tax rates. Deferred tax is
+provided using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
+reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available
+against which the assets can be utilised. Deferred tax is calculated on the basis of the enacted tax rates or substantially enacted tax rates that
+are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. The effect on deferred tax of any changes in tax rates is
+charged or credited to the consolidated income statement, except for the effect of a change in tax rate on the carrying amount of deferred tax
+assets and liabilities which were previously charged or credited to other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
+The tax value of losses expected to be available for utilisation against future taxable income is set off against the deferred tax liability within the
+same legal tax unit and jurisdiction to the extent appropriate, and is not available for set off against the taxable profit of another legal tax unit.
+The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable
+that the related tax benefit will be realised.
+(aa) Dividends
+Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared.
+(bb)Segment reporting
+Operating segments, and the amounts of each segment item reported in the financial statements, are identified from the financial information
+provided regularly to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of allocating resources to, and assessing the performance of
+the Group's various lines of business.

+3 TURNOVER
+(i) Trade accounts receivable, other receivables and investment in equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market
+are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. If any such evidence exists, an
+impairment loss is determined and recognised.
+Trade, bills and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method,
+less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts (Note 2(n)). Trade, bills and other receivables are derecognised if the Group's contractual
+rights to the cash flows from these financial assets expire or if the Group transfers these financial assets to another party without retaining
+control or substantially all risks and rewards of the assets.
+The portion of the gain or loss on re-measurement to fair value of an instrument used to hedge a net investment in a foreign operation that is
+determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately in equity in the other reserve
+until the disposal of the foreign operation, at which time the cumulative gain or loss is reclassified from equity to the consolidated income
+statement. The ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement. In this year no hedge of net investment in
+foreign operations was hold by the Group.
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

+(b) Translation of foreign currencies
+The presentation currency of the Group is Renminbi. Foreign currency transactions during the year are translated into Renminbi at the applicable
+rates of exchange quoted by the People's Bank of China ("PBOC") prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency monetary assets and
+liabilities are translated into Renminbi at the PBOC's rates at the balance sheet date.
+Exchange differences, other than those capitalised as construction in progress, are recognised as income or expense in the "finance costs"
+section of the consolidated income statement.
+The results of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the applicable rates quoted by the PBOC prevailing on the transaction dates.
+Balance sheet items, including goodwill arising on consolidation of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the closing foreign
+exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in
+equity in the other reserves.
+On disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation is reclassified from
+equity to the consolidated income statement when the profit or loss on disposal is recognised.

+(c) Cash and cash equivalents
+(d) Trade, bills and other receivables

+(e) Inventories
+Inventories, other than spare parts and consumables, are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of purchase
+computed using the weighted average method and, in the case of work in progress and finished goods, direct labour and an appropriate
+proportion of production overheads. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated
+costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
+Spare parts and consumables are stated at cost less any provision for obsolescence.
+(f) Property, plant and equipment
+An item of property, plant and equipment is initially recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (Note 2(n)). The cost
+of an asset comprises its purchase price, any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition and location for its intended
+use. The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when
+that cost is incurred, when it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the
+item can be measured reliably. All other expenditure is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement in the year in which it is
+incurred.
+Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are
+determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised as income or expense
+in the consolidated income statement on the date of retirement or disposal.
+Cash equivalents consist of time deposits with financial institutions with an initial term of less than three months when purchased. Cash
+equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2014
+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
+(a) Basis of consolidation
+The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries, and interest in associates and joint ventures.
+(i) Subsidiaries and non-controlling interests
+Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable
+returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
+The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control effectively
+commences until the date that control effectively ceases.
+Non-controlling interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that
+are not owned by the Company, whether directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, are presented in the consolidated balance sheet and
+consolidated statement of changes in equity within equity, separately from equity attributable to the owners of the Company. Non-controlling
+interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement and the consolidated statement of
+comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year between non-controlling
+interests and the owners of the Company.
+Changes in the Group's interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions, whereby
+adjustments are made to the amounts of controlling and non-controlling interests within consolidated equity to reflect the change in relative
+interests, but no adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognised.
+When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, it is accounted for as a disposal of the entire interest in that subsidiary, with a resulting gain
+or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is recognised at fair
+value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset (Note 2(k)) or, when appropriate, the cost on
+initial recognition of an investment in an associate or joint venture (Note 2(a) (ii)).
+In the Company's balance sheet, investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(n)).
+The particulars of the Group's principal subsidiaries are set out in Note 40.
+(ii) Associates and joint ventures
+An associate is an entity, not being a subsidiary, in which the Group exercises significant influence over its management. Significant influence
+is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
+The investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and
+obligations each investor has rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the
+parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
+Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method from the
+date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. Under the equity
+method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition change in the Group's share of the
+investee's net assets and any impairment loss relating to the investment (Note 2(j) and (n)).
+The Group's share of the post-acquisition, post-tax results of the investees and any impairment losses for the year are recognised in the
+consolidated income statement, whereas the Group's share of the post-acquisition post-tax items of the investees' other comprehensive
+income is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
+When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture, it is accounted for as a disposal of
+the entire interest in that investee, with a resulting gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former investee
+at the date when significant influence or joint control is lost is recognised at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial
+recognition of a financial asset (see Note 2(k)) or, when appropriate, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate (see Note
+2(a) (ii)).
+In the Company's balance sheet, investments in associates and joint ventures are stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(n)).
+(iii)Transactions eliminated on consolidation
+Inter-company balances and transactions and any unrealised gains arising from inter-company transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
+Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the entity.
+Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
+Depreciation is provided to write off the cost amount of items of property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, over its
+estimated useful life on a straight-line basis, after taking into account its estimated residual value, as follows:
+Buildings
+Equipment, machinery and others.
+12 to 50 years
+4 to 30 years
+(I) Derivative financial instruments
+Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or loss
+on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement, except where the derivatives qualify for cash
+flow hedge accounting or hedge the net investment in a foreign operation, in which case recognition of any resulting gain or loss depends on the
+nature of the item being hedged (Note 2(m)).
+(m) Hedging
+(i) Cash flow hedges
+Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the variability in cash flows of a recognised asset or liability or a highly
+probable forecast transaction or the foreign currency risk of a committed future transaction, the effective portion of any gains or losses on re-
+measurement of the derivative financial instrument to fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately
+in equity in other reserves. The ineffective portion of any gain or loss is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement.

+If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the associated gain
+or loss is reclassified from equity to the consolidated income statement in the same period or periods during which the asset acquired or
+liability assumed affects the consolidated income statement (such as when interest income or expense is recognised).
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding two policy statements, the associated gain or loss is reclassified from equity
+to the consolidated income statement in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecast transaction affects the consolidated
+income statement.
+When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised, or the entity revokes designation of the hedge relationship but the
+hedged forecast transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss at that point remains in equity until the transaction occurs
+and it is recognised in accordance with the above policy. If the hedged transaction is no longer expected to take place, the cumulative
+unrealised gain or loss is reclassified from equity to the consolidated income statement immediately.
+(ii) Hedge of net investments in foreign operations
+Investments in securities held for trading are classified as current assets. Any attributable transaction costs are recognised in the consolidated
+income statement as incurred. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured, with any resultant gain or loss being recognised in the
+consolidated income statement.
+(n) Impairment of assets
+Investment in available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with any change in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income
+and accumulated separately in equity in other reserves. When these investments are derecognised or impaired, the cumulative gain or loss is
+reclassified from equity to the consolidated income statement. Investments in equity securities, other than investments in associates and joint
+ventures, that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are recognised in the
+balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(n)).
+Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill arising on a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating
+unit, or groups of cash generating units, that is expected to benefit the synergies of the combination and is tested annually for impairment
+(Note 2(n)). In respect of associates or joint ventures, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the interest in the
+associate or joint venture and the investment as a whole is tested for impairment whenever there is objective evidence of impairment (Note 2(n)).
+Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis
+between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reassessed annually.
+(g) Oil and gas properties
+The Group uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas producing activities. Under this method, costs of development
+wells, the related supporting equipment and proved mineral interests in properties are capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially
+capitalised as construction in progress pending determination of whether the well has found proved reserves. The impairment of exploratory well
+costs occurs upon the determination that the well has not found proved reserves. The exploratory well costs are usually not carried as an asset
+for more than one year following completion of drilling, unless (i) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion
+as a producing well if the required capital expenditure is made; (ii) drilling of the additional exploratory wells is under way or firmly planned
+for the near future; or (iii) other activities are being undertaken to sufficiently progress the assessing of the reserves and the economic and
+operating viability of the project. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, other dry hole costs and annual lease
+rentals, are expensed as incurred. Capitalised costs relating to proved properties are amortised at the field level on a unit-of-production method.
+The amortisation rates are determined based on oil and gas reserves estimated to be recoverable from existing facilities over the shorter of the
+economic lives of crude oil and natural gas reservoirs and the terms of the relevant production licenses.

+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(g) Oil and gas properties (Continued)
+Management estimates future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties with reference to engineering estimates after taking into
+consideration the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with the industry practices and the future cash flows are adjusted
+to reflect such risks specific to the liability, as appropriate. These estimated future dismantlement costs are discounted at pre-tax risk-free rate
+and are capitalised as oil and gas properties, which are subsequently amortised as part of the costs of the oil and gas properties.
+(h) Lease prepayments
+Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the relevant government authorities. Land use rights are carried at cost less accumulated
+amount charged to expense and impairment losses (Note 2(n)). The cost of lease prepayments is charged to expense on a straight-line basis
+over the respective periods of the rights.
+(i) Construction in progress
+Construction in progress represents buildings, oil and gas properties, various plant and equipment under construction and pending installation,
+and is stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(n)). Cost comprises direct costs of construction as well as interest charges, and foreign
+exchange differences on related borrowed funds to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest charges, during the periods of
+construction.
+Construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when the asset is substantially ready for its intended use.
+No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress.
+(j) Goodwill
+Goodwill represents amounts arising on acquisition of subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures. Goodwill represents the difference between the
+cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.
+Prior to 1 January 2008, the acquisition of the non-controlling interests of a consolidated subsidiary was accounted using the acquisition method
+whereby the difference between the cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired (on a proportionate share) was
+recognised as goodwill. From 1 January 2008, any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interest is adjusted (such as
+through an acquisition of the non-controlling interests) and the cash or other considerations paid is recognised in equity.

+chemicals segment of RMB 1,106 million (2013: RMB 0 million) of property, plant and equipment and other assets (Note 17). The primary
+factor resulting in the E&P segment impairment losses was unsuccessful development drilling and high operating and development costs for
+certain oil fields. The carrying values of these E&P properties were written down to recoverable amounts which were determined based on the
+present values of the expected future cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.13% (2013: 10.70%). The assets in the chemicals
+segment were written down mainly due to the suspension of operations of certain production facilities.
+(i) Government grants for the years ended 31 December 2014 and 2013 primarily represent financial appropriation income and non-income tax
+refunds received from respective government agencies without conditions or other contingencies attached to the receipts of these grants.
+(ii) It is mainly due to the foreign operation in the Republic of Angola ("Angola") that is taxed at 50% of the assessable income as determined in accordance with the
+relevant income tax rules and regulations of Angola.

+Key assumptions used for cash flow forecasts for these entities are the gross margin and sales volume. Management determined the budgeted gross
+margin based on the gross margin achieved in the period immediately before the budget period and management's expectation on the future trend
+of the prices of crude oil and petrochemical products. The sales volume was based on the production capacity and/or the sales volume in the period
+immediately before the budget period.
+Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchase over the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities. The recoverable amounts of the
+above cash generating units are determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial
+budgets approved by management covering a one-year period and pre-tax discount rates primarily ranging from 10.0% to 10.9% (2013: 11.5%
+to12.7%). Cash flows beyond the one-year period are maintained constant. Based on the estimated recoverable amount, no impairment loss was
+recognised.

+Periodically, management performed assessment on the probability that future taxable profit will be available over the period which the deferred tax
+assets can be realised or utilised. In assessing the probability, both positive and negative evidence was considered, including whether it is probable
+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the
+tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur. During the year ended 31 December 2014, write-down of deferred tax assets
+amounted to RMB 114 million (2013: RMB 926 million).

+At 31 December 2014, certain subsidiaries of the Company did not recognise deferred tax of deductable loss carried forward of RMB 17,085 million
+(2013: RMB 10,809 million), of which RMB 6,996 million (2013: RMB 2,638 million) was incurred for the year ended 31 December 2014, because

+Management optimises the structure of the Group's capital, which comprises of equity and debts. In order to maintain or adjust the capital
+structure of the Group, management may cause the Group to issue new shares, adjust the capital expenditure plan, sell assets to reduce debt, or
+adjust the proportion of short-term and long-term loans. Management monitors capital on the basis of the debt-to-capital ratio, which is calculated
+by dividing long-term loans (excluding current portion), including long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries,
+by the total of equity attributable to owners of the Company and long-term loans (excluding current portion), and liability-to-asset ratio, which is
+calculated by dividing total liabilities by total assets. Management's strategy is to make appropriate adjustments according to the Group's operating
+and investment needs and the changes of market conditions, and to maintain the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group at
+a range considered reasonable. As at 31 December 2014, the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group were 20.3% (2013:
+20.4%) and 55.5% (2013: 55.1%), respectively.

+amounts of the liability component and the derivative component, representing the Conversion Option of the 2011 Convertible Bonds, were RMB 19,279 million and

+30 SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM DEBTS AND LOANS FROM SINOPEC GROUP COMPANY AND FELLOW SUBSIDIARIES (Continued)
+During the term of the 2011 Convertible Bonds, the conversion price may be subject to downward adjustment that if the closing prices of the Company's A Shares in
+any fifteen trading days out of any thirty consecutive trading days are lower than 80% of the prevailing conversion price, the board of directors may propose downward
+adjustment to the conversion price subject to the shareholders' approval. The adjusted conversion price shall be not less than (a) the average trading price of the
+Company's A Shares for the twenty trading days prior to the shareholders' approval, (b) the average trading price of the Company's A Shares on the day immediately
+before the shareholders' approval, (c) the net asset value per share based on the latest audited financial statements prepared under ASBE, and (d) the nominal value
+per share.
+Note:
+The Company issued 270-day corporate bonds of face value RMB 10 billion to corporate investors in the PRC debenture market on 15 August 2013 at par value of
+RMB 100. The effective yield of the 270-day corporate bonds is 4.49% per annum. The short-term bonds were due on 13 May 2014 and were fully paid by the Group
+at maturity.
+(ii) These corporate bonds are guaranteed by Sinopec Group Company and carried at amotised cost.
+(iii) On 24 April 2007, the Company issued zero coupon convertible bonds due 2014 with an aggregate principal amount of HKD 11,700 million (the "2007 Convertible
+Bonds"). The holders can convert the 2007 Convertible Bonds into shares of the Company from 4 June 2007 onwards at a price of HKD 10.76 per share, subject to
+adjustment for, amongst other things, subdivision or consolidation of shares, bonus issues, rights issues, capital distribution, change of control and other events, which
+have a dilutive effect on the issued share capital of the Company (the "Conversion Option"). Unless previously redeemed, converted or purchased and cancelled, the
+2007 Convertible Bonds will be redeemed on the maturity date at 121.069% of the principal amount. The Company has an early redemption option at any time after
+24 April 2011 (subject to certain criteria) (the "Early Redemption Option") and a cash settlement option when the holders exercise their conversion right (the "Cash
+Settlement Option").
+During the year ended 31 December 2011, the Company redeemed part of the 2007 Convertible Bonds upon certain holders' request, with the principal amount of
+HKD 39 million.
+The 2007 Convertible Bonds were due on 24 April 2014 and have been fully paid by the Group at maturity.
+The changes in the fair value of the derivative component from 31 December 2013 to 24 April 2014 resulted in realised loss of RMB 1 million (2013: an unrealised
+gain of RMB 114 million), which has been recorded under "finance costs" in the consolidated income statement for the year ended 31 December 2014.
+The initial carrying amount of the liability component of the 2007 Convertible Bonds is the residual amount, which is after deducting the allocated issuance cost of the
+2007 Convertible Bonds relating to the liability component and the fair value of the derivative component as at 24 April 2007. Interest expense is calculated using the
+effective interest method by applying the effective interest rate of 4.19% to the adjusted liability component.
+(iv) On 26 February 2008, the Company issued bonds with stock warrants due 2014 with an aggregate principal amount of RMB 30 billion in the PRC (the "Bonds with
+Warrants"). The Bonds with Warrants, which bear a fixed interest rate of 0.80% per annum payable annually, were issued at par value of RMB 100. The Bonds with
+Warrants are guaranteed by Sinopec Group Company.
+The initial recognition of the liability component of the Bond with Warrants is measured at the present value of the future interest and principal payments, discounted
+at the market rate of interest applicable at the time of initial recognition to similar liabilities that do not have a conversion option. Interest expense is calculated using
+the effective interest method by applying the market interest rate of 5.40% to the liability component. On 4 March 2010, warrants of the bonds have already expired.
+The Bonds with Warrants were due on 20 February 2014 and have been fully paid by the Group at maturity.
+(i) The Company issued 180-day corporate bonds of face value RMB 10 billion to corporate investors in the PRC debenture market on 19 May 2014 at par value of RMB
+100. The effective yield of the 180-day corporate bonds is 4.40% per annum. The short-term bonds were due on 16 November 2014 and were fully paid by the Group
+at maturity.

+Assets and liabilities dedicated to a particular segment's operations are included in that segment's total assets and liabilities. Segment assets
+include all tangible and intangible assets, except for interest in associates and joint ventures, investments, deferred tax assets, cash and cash
+equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions and other unallocated assets. Segment liabilities exclude short-term, income tax payable,
+long-term debts, loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, deferred tax liabilities and other unallocated liabilities.
+The Group's chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance and allocates resources to its operating segments on an operating income
+basis, without considering the effects of finance costs or investment income. Inter-segment transfer pricing is based on the market price or cost
+plus an appropriate margin, as specified by the Group's policy.
+(1) Information of reportable segmental revenues, profits or losses, assets and liabilities
+The segments were determined primarily because the Group manages its exploration and production, refining, marketing and distribution,
+chemicals, and corporate and others businesses separately. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and/
+or distribute distinct products with different production processes and due to their distinct operating and gross margin characteristics.
+(v) Corporate and others, which largely comprises the trading activities of the import and export companies of the Group and research and
+development undertaken by other subsidiaries.
+39 SEGMENT REPORTING (Continued)
+(iv) Chemicals, which manufactures and sells petrochemical products, derivative petrochemical products and other chemical products mainly to
+external customers.
+(ii) Refining, which processes and purifies crude oil, that is sourced from the exploration and production segment of the Group and external
+suppliers, and manufactures and sells petroleum products to the chemicals and marketing and distribution segments of the Group and external
+customers.
+(i) Exploration and production, which explores and develops oil fields, produces crude oil and natural gas and sells such products to the refining
+segment of the Group and external customers.
+In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of
+resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has identified the following five reportable segments. No operating segments have been
+aggregated to form the following reportable segments.
+Segment information is presented in respect of the Group's business segments. The format is based on the Group's management and internal
+reporting structure.
+39 SEGMENT REPORTING
+As stipulated by the regulations of the PRC, the Group participates in various defined contribution retirement plans organised by municipal and
+provincial governments for its staff. The Group is required to make contributions to the retirement plans at rates ranging from 18.0% to 23.0% of
+the salaries, bonuses and certain allowances of its staff. In addition, the Group provides a supplementary retirement plan for its staff at rates not
+exceeding 5% of the salaries. The Group has no other material obligation for the payment of pension benefits associated with these plans beyond
+the annual contributions described above. The Group's contributions for the year ended 31 December 2014 were RMB 7,634 million (2013: RMB

+additional 45% of the equity interest in shares in Ningxia Nenghua (GWEC previously held a 50% equity interest) and obtained control of Ningxia Nenghua (a coal
+chemical producer) which the Group accounted for as a subsidiary of GWEC thereafter. The cash consideration was RMB 2,593 million. The fair value of the 50%
+equity interest held before the business combination is RMB 2,881 million. The fair value of the assets and liabilities of Ningxia Nenghua primarily include construction
+in progress (RMB 14,094 million), property, plant and equipment (RMB 3,293 million) and borrowings (RMB 11,862 million) and no goodwill has arisen from the
+business combination.

+not been lost, which resulted in an increase in capital reserve of the Group's consolidated financial statement amounting to RMB 3,227 million and decrease of non-
+controlling interests amounting to RMB 2,867 million.
+Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement between Sinopec Group Company and Yizheng Chemical Fibre Co., Ltd. on the same date, Yizheng Chemical Fibre Co., Ltd.

+2014, Yizheng Chemical Fibre Co., Ltd. repurchased and cancelled the 40.25% of its equity interests held by the Company in exchange for the transfer of its outgoing
+business to the Company, pursuant to which this business was injected into Sinopec Yizheng Chemical Fibre Limited Liability Company.
+(ii) The Group consolidated the financial statements of the entity because it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has
+the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

+The Group is part of a larger group of companies under Sinopec Group Company, which is controlled by the PRC government, and has significant
+transactions and relationships with Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries. Because of these relationships, it is possible that the terms
+of these transactions are not the same as those that would result from transactions among wholly unrelated parties.
+(a) Transactions with Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures
+Parties are considered to be related to the Group if the Group has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control or jointly control the party or exercise
+significant influence over the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa, or where the Group and the party are subject to
+control or common control. Related parties may be individuals (being members of key management personnel, significant shareholders and/or their
+close family members) or other entities and include entities which are under the significant influence of related parties of the Group where those
+parties are individuals, and post-employment benefit plans which are for the benefit of employees of the Group or of any entity that is a related
+party of the Group.
+37 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
+The Group is a defendant in certain lawsuits as well as the named party in other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.
+Management has assessed the likelihood of an unfavourable outcome of such contingencies, lawsuits or other proceedings and believes that any
+resulting liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, operating results or cash flows of the Group.
+Legal contingencies
+Environmental contingencies
+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect management's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature
+and extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development
+areas, whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv)
+changes in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is
+indeterminable due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective
+actions that may be required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot
+reasonably be estimated at present, and could be material. The Group paid normal routine pollutant discharge fees of approximately RMB 5,352
+million for the year ended 31 December 2014 (2013: RMB 5,154 million).

+(2) Oil products market
+In 2014, international crude oil prices
+fluctuated at a high level in the first half
+of the year and plunged in the second
+half, with a precipitous drop in the fourth
+quarter. The average spot price of Platts
+Brent for the year was USD 99.45 per
+barrel, 8.5% lower than the previous
+year. China's demand for natural gas
+continued to increase in 2014. Chinese
+Government made further adjustments
+to the price of existing supplies of non-
+residential natural gas, thus gradually
+aligning domestic gas prices with those
+of alternative energy sources.
+In 2014, driven by management and
+technology innovation, we implemented
+(1) Crude oil and natural gas
+Over the past three years, we have also
+strengthened corporate management. We
+designed and implemented more rigid
+management regulations after the Qingdao
+11/22 incident to ensure continuous
+improvement of our process flow, production
+organization, risk controls, security and stability
+management. Our production and operational
+costs in different business segments grew more
+slowly than those of our peers, which enabled us
+to effectively prevent and withstand sector risks.
+In the past three years, we have been promoting
+technology innovation throughout the Company.
+Taking a forward-looking perspective, we
+explored technology system reform and placed
+a great emphasis on the role of technology in

+and product mix. During the past three years,
+we have won seven National Awards for
+Technological Invention, including one first-place
+award; 12 National Awards for Science and
+Technology Progress, including one special prize
+and three first-place awards; and two National
+Gold Patent Awards. We have obtained a total
+of 6,850 domestic and foreign patents. These
+achievements demonstrate the effectiveness with
+which the Company has embraced technology to
+further its development.
+In the past three years, we have continued to
+fulfil our social responsibilities in all aspects
+of our business. We have joined the Global
+Compact LEAD and the Caring for Climate
+initiatives. We conscientiously followed the ten
+principles of the Global Compact, and made ten
+voluntary commitments at the Rio+20 Summit.
+Sinopec supported the United Nations Global
+Compact China network, hosting two sessions
+of the China Summit on Caring for Climate.
+We took the lead in publishing a corporate
+environment conservation white paper and an
+Environmental, Social and Governance report
+for shale gas development, setting an example
+for Chinese enterprises to collectively cope with
+climate change. The Company sincerely cares
+for its staff, actively participating in public
+welfare initiatives and promoting development
+that benefits both the business and its
+various stakeholders.
+According to International Financial Reporting
+Standards, the Company's operating revenue in
+2014 was up by 12.8% from 2011, and total
+assets and shareholder equity at the end of 2014
+were up by 27.2% and 25.2%, respectively, from
+their levels at the end of 2011. The Company's
+announced cash dividends over the three-year period
+totalled RMB 82.4 billion, while both share price
+and market capitalization increased. Sinopec Group,
+with Sinopec Corp. as its core asset, ranked third
+on the Fortune Global 500 list for 2014. We could
+not have recorded these achievements without the
+joint efforts of Sinopec's Board, management team
+and employees, as well as the great support of our
+shareholders and the wider community.
+In 2015, the Company continues to face a
+difficult operating environment, given the
+compounding effects of the "new normal"
+growth rate for China's economy and low
+international oil prices. We remain determined
+to meet these challenges proactively. We will
+continue to encourage innovations, deepen
+reform and drive the transition of the business,
+strengthen our business fundamentals with a
+focus on quality and efficiency, and raise the
+level of our production and operations based on
+market conditions. We plan to restrict capital
+expenditures to RMB 135.9 billion in 2015,
+which we will use mainly for improving the
+efficiency of upstream exploration, in particular
+through the development of unconventional oil
+and gas exploration and the construction of
+liquefied natural gas facilities; for revamping
+refineries and upgrading refined oil products; for
+developing the new business of coal-to-chemical
+conversion and the research and production of
+higher-value-added products; for accelerating the
+upgrade of service stations; and for continuing
+to carry out the Clear Water, Blue Sky Scheme
+and the Energy Efficiency Doubling plan.
+Looking forward, Sinopec will vigorously pursue
+the opportunities to meet its challenges. We
+are committed to development through the
+improvement of internal quality and efficiency,
+and we will maintain our core strategy of driving
+growth by innovation, in order to transform
+Sinopec into a scientific and services based
+company. We hope to gradually shift the industry
+structure from "petroleum and chemicals" to
+"energy and materials," changing the value
+creation model from a focus on manufacturing
+to a focus on innovation and services.
+As the current term of the Board approaches
+its end, on behalf of the Board, I would like
+to express my heartfelt gratitude to our
+shareholders, our other stakeholders and the
+community at large for your support and care;
+and to the Board of Supervisors, management
+team and all of our employees for your diligent
+work and devoted cooperation over the years.
+The current term of the Board of Directors and
+the Board of Supervisors will expire in May
+2015. Due to regulatory requirements and
+adjustments in their duties, Mr. Zhang Yaocang,
+Mr. Cao Yaofeng, Mr. Chen Xiaojin, Mr. Ma
+Weihua will not renew their terms. They have all
+been very dedicated members who adhered to
+their responsibilities as they actively participated
+in Sinopec Corp.'s decision-making processes.
+They were crucial in enabling the Board of
+Directors to make informed decisions and carry
+out effective oversight. I would like to thank
+them for their hard work and great contributions
+to the Company.
+Over the past three years, we have been
+undertaking an overall transition in our
+business. We have focused on the quality of
+our development and returns by executing six
+major strategies with total capital expenditures
+RMB498.5 billion in the past three years. We
+increased our upstream reserve and production,
+upgraded the quality of our refined oil products,
+strengthened the performance of the marketing
+segment, realized fast growth in our non-
+fuel business, and continued to improve our
+chemical feedstock and product mix. Since
+2011, crude oil output has increased by 12.1%
+and natural gas output has increased by 38.5%,
+with significant breakthroughs in shale gas
+development creating favourable prospects for
+the future. We fully upgraded the quality of
+our refined oil and were the first to make all of
+our gasoline and automobile diesel products
+meet the GB IV national standard; some
+regions have upgraded product to the GB V. We
+continued expanding the marketing business.
+The percentage of our domestic retail sales
+increased to 68.9%, and the non-fuel business
+recorded rapid growth, with revenues soaring
+by 107% as a result of our optimized platform.
+In order to improve our chemical feedstock
+and product mix, we raised the proportion of
+high-value-added products and enhanced our
+capabilities in risk management. We established
+the Energy Management and Environmental
+Protection Department inside the Company, and
+we plan to invest more than USD5 billion to
+implement the Clear Water, Blue Sky Scheme
+and the Energy Efficiency Doubling plan. The
+level of emissions and energy consumption
+continued to drop even as the overall level of
+business activities expanded. Since 2011, the
+average overall energy intensity has decreased
+by 5.2%; chemical oxygen demand (COD) in
+waste water discharged has decreased
+by 8.1%; and emissions of NHx, sulphur
+dioxide and NOx have decreased by 9.6%,
+20% and 7.4%, respectively.
+The current Board of Directors has already
+nominated candidates for the new boards.
+The candidates are all outstanding managers
+and experts in macroeconomics, finance and
+securities, corporate management as well as the
+oil and gas industry. I believe their solid industry
+backgrounds and professional experience will
+bring vitality and new perspectives to the boards
+while strengthening the decision-making and
+supervisory standards of these two bodies.
+(1) Exploration and production
+In 2014, chemical prices declined
+continuously. The second half of the year
+saw a bigger decrease in feedstock costs
+than in chemical prices, thus improving
+chemical margins. According to the
+Company's statistics, domestic apparent
+consumption of synthetic resin and
+synthetic fiber rose by 8.7% and 7.0%,
+respectively, from the previous year,
+while apparent consumption of synthetic
+rubber fell by 1.9% and that of ethylene

+BUSINESS REVIEW AND PROSPECTS (CONTINUED)
+(3) Marketing and distribution
+In 2014, the Company initiated business
+restructuring in the marketing segment
+and has launched mixed-ownership
+reform by introducing private capital.
+Sinopec Corp. entered into capital
+increase agreements with 25 investors,
+established a mechanism aiming to
+transform the segment into a market
+orientated business through joint efforts
+with private investors. The initiative laid
+the foundations for further reform on the
+operational systems and mechanisms of
+our marketing business with the aim of
+development through innovations.
+In 2014, in light of the slower growth of
+domestic demand for oil products and
+the particularly weak demand for diesel,
+we adjusted our marketing strategies,
+enhancing marketing efforts on high-
+octane gasoline and jet fuel to increase
+total sales volume. We expanded our
+retail volume by using our network and
+brand advantages, enhancing customer
+service at service stations. At the same
+time, we further developed our non-
+fuel businesses, improved the customer
+experience and provided one-stop
+services through our online fuel-card
+services and self-service mobile apps and
+equipment. Non-fuel business transaction
+increased by 28% over 2013 to RMB
+17.1 billion. In 2014, total sales volume
+of refined oil products was 189 million
+tonnes, up by 5.1% from the previous
+year, with domestic sales rising by 3.4%
+to 171 million tonnes and retail rising
+by 3.6%.

+Table IV: Reserve quantities information
+The Group's and equity method investments' estimated net proved underground oil and gas reserves and changes thereto for the years ended 31
+December 2014 and 2013 are shown in the following table.
+Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable
+certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods,
+and government regulation before contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain,
+regardless of whether the estimate is a deterministic estimate or probabilistic estimate. Due to the inherent uncertainties and the limited nature of
+reservoir data, estimates of underground reserves are subject to change as additional information becomes available.
+Proved developed oil and gas reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and
+operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared with the cost of a new well.
+"Net" reserves exclude royalties and interests owned by others and reflect contractual arrangements and obligation of rental fee in effect at the time of
+the estimate.

+As at 31 December 2014, it is estimated that an increase of 20% in the Company's own share price would decrease the Group's profit for the year
+by approximately RMB 2,730 million (2013: RMB 1,333 million); a decrease of 20% in the Company's own share price would increase the Group's
+profit for the year by approximately RMB 2,702 million (2013: RMB 737 million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the
+changes in the Company's own share price had occurred at the balance sheet date and that all other variables remain constant. The analysis is
+performed on the same basis for 2013.
+The Group is exposed to equity price risk arising from changes in the Company's own share price to the extent that the Company's own equity
+instruments underlie the fair values of derivatives of the Group. At 31 December 2014, the Group's exposure to equity price risk is the derivatives
+embedded in the 2011 Convertible Bonds issued by the Company as disclosed in Note 30(v).
+Equity price risk
+As at 31 December 2014, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of USD 10 per barrel in crude oil and refined oil products, with all
+other variables held constant, would decrease/Increase the Group's profit by approximately RMB 1,167 million (2013: increase/decrease RMB 18
+million), and increase/decrease the Group's other reserves by approximately RMB 2,206 million (2013: increase/decrease RMB 2,806 million). This
+sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the change was applied
+to the Group's derivative financial instruments at that date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for
+2013.
+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products and
+chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the Group.
+The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps, to manage a portion of this risk. As at 31 December 2014,
+the Group had certain commodity contracts of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products designated as qualified cash flow hedges and
+economic hedges. The fair values of these derivative financial instruments as at 31 December 2014 are set out in Notes 28 and 32.
+Commodity price risk
+As at 31 December 2014, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in variable interest rates, with all other variables held
+constant, would decrease/increase the Group's profit for the year by approximately RMB 1,199 million (2013: RMB 411 million). This sensitivity
+analysis has been determined assuming that the change of interest rates was applied to the Group's debts outstanding at the balance sheet date
+with exposure to cash flow interest rate risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2013.
+111,753
+The Group's interest rate risk exposure arises primarily from its short-term and long-term debts. Debts bearing interest at variable rates and at fixed
+rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk respectively. The interest rates of short-term and long-term
+debts, and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries of the Group are disclosed in Note 30.
+Other than the amounts as disclosed above, the amounts of other financial assets and liabilities of the Group are substantially denominated in the

+(Differences Between the ASBE and IFRS)
+(C) DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
+THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES COMPLYING WITH ASBE AND IFRS (UNAUDITED)
+Other than the differences in the classifications of certain financial statements captions and the accounting for the items described below, there are no
+material differences between the Group's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE
+and IFRS. The reconciliation presented below is included as supplemental information, is not required as part of the basic financial statements and
+does not include differences related to classification, presentation or disclosures. Such information has not been subject to independent audit or review.
+The major differences are:
+(i) Government Grants
+Under ASBE, grants from the government are credited to capital reserve if required by relevant governmental regulations. Under IFRS, government
+grants relating to the purchase of fixed assets are recognised as deferred income and are transferred to the income statement over the useful life of
+these assets.
+(ii) Safety Production Fund
+Under ASBE, safety production fund should be recognised in profit or loss with a corresponding increase in reserve according to PRC regulations.
+Such reserve is reduced for expenses incurred for safety production purposes or, when safety production related fixed assets are purchased, is
+reduced by the purchased cost with a corresponding increase in the accumulated depreciation. Such fixed assets are not depreciated thereafter.
+Under IFRS, payments are expensed as incurred, or capitalised as fixed assets and depreciated according to applicable depreciation methods.
+Effects of major differences between the net profit under ASBE and the profit for the year under IFRS are analysed as follows:

+If the costs of inventories become higher than their net realisable values, an allowance for diminution in value of inventories is recognised. Net
+realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated
+costs necessary to make the sale. Management bases the estimates on all available information, including the current market prices of the finished
+goods and raw materials, and historical operating costs. If the actual selling prices were to be lower or the costs of completion were to be higher
+than estimated, the actual allowance for diminution in value of inventories could be higher than estimated.
+Management estimates impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts resulting from the inability of the Group's customers to make the required
+payments. Management bases the estimates on the ageing of the accounts receivable balance, customer credit-worthiness, and historical write-off
+experience. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, actual write-offs would be higher than estimated.

+Fair values (Continued)
+(ii) Fair values of financial instruments carried at other than fair value (Continued)
+The fair values of the Group's financial instruments carried at other than fair value (other than long-term indebtedness and investments in
+unquoted equity securities) approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term
+indebtedness are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market interest rates offered to the Group that range from 0.33% to
+6.15% (2013: 0.37% to 7.03%). The following table presents the carrying amount and fair value of the Group's long-term indebtedness other
+than loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries at 31 December 2014 and 2013:

+The Group has not developed an internal valuation model necessary to estimate the fair values of loans from Sinopec Group Company and
+fellow subsidiaries as it is not considered practicable to estimate their fair values because the cost of obtaining discount and borrowing rates for
+comparable borrowings would be excessive based on the Reorganisation, the Group's existing capital structure and the terms of the borrowings.
+Investments in unquoted equity securities are individually and in the aggregate not material to the Group's financial condition or results of
+operations. There are no listed market prices for such interests in the PRC and, accordingly, a reasonable estimate of fair value could not be
+made without incurring excessive costs. The Group intends to hold these unquoted other investments in equity securities for long term purpose.
+Except for the above items, the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair values
+at 31 December 2014 and 2013.
+42 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
+The Group's financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the
+preparation of the financial statements. Management bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on various other
+assumptions that it believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily apparent from
+other sources. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts, circumstances
+and conditions change.
+The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of such policies and the sensitivity of
+reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the financial statements. The significant
+accounting policies are set forth in Note 2. Management believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgements
+and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
+Oil and gas properties and reserves
+The accounting for the exploration and production's oil and gas activities is subject to accounting rules that are unique to the oil and gas industry.
+There are two methods to account for oil and gas business activities, the successful efforts method and the full cost method. The Group has elected
+to use the successful efforts method. The successful efforts method reflects the volatility that is inherent in exploring for mineral resources in that
+costs of unsuccessful exploratory efforts are charged to expense as they are incurred. These costs primarily include dry hole costs, seismic costs
+and other exploratory costs. Under the full cost method, these costs are capitalised and written-off or depreciated over time.
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have to be
+met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as “proved”. Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated at least
+annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels change from
+year to year, the estimate of proved and proved developed reserves also changes. This change is considered a change in estimate for accounting
+purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in relation to depreciation rates.
+Future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties are estimated with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration the
+anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with industry practices in similar geographic area, including estimation of economic
+life of oil and gas properties, technology and price level. The present values of these estimated future dismantlement costs are capitalised as oil and
+gas properties with equivalent amounts recognised as provisions for dismantlement costs.
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment loss
+and future dismantlement costs. Depreciation rates are determined based on estimated proved developed reserve quantities (the denominator) and
+capitalised costs of producing properties (the numerator). Producing properties' capitalised costs are amortised based on the units of oil or gas
+produced.

+for the year ended 31 December 2014
+42 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Continued)
+Impairment for long-lived assets
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered “impaired", and an
+impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are reviewed
+periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for impairment
+whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has
+occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. The recoverable
+amount is the greater of the net selling price and the value in use. It is difficult to precisely estimate selling price because quoted market prices for
+the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining the value in use, expected cash flows generated by the asset
+or the cash-generating unit are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to level of sale volume, selling price
+and amount of operating costs. Management uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation
+of recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sale volume, selling price and
+amount of operating costs.
+Depreciation
+Property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the
+assets, after taking into account the estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets at least annually in order
+to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group's historical
+experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if
+there are significant changes from previous estimates.

+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2014
+At 31 December 2014, the Group has standby credit facilities with several PRC financial institutions which provide borrowings up to RMB 302,570
+million (2013: RMB 289,106 million) on an unsecured basis, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.51% per annum (2013: 3.12%). At 31
+December 2014, the Group's outstanding borrowings under these facilities were RMB 78,983 million (2013: RMB 44,966 million) and were included
+in debts.
+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach in managing
+liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed
+conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. Management prepares monthly cash flow budget
+to ensure that the Group will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group arranges and negotiates
+financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the Group's liquidity risk.
+Liquidity risk
+The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, trade accounts and bills receivables, derivative financial
+instruments and other receivables, represent the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets.
+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations,
+and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions and receivables from customers. To limit exposure to credit risk
+relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial institutions in the PRC with acceptable credit ratings. The
+majority of the Group's trade accounts receivable relate to sales of petroleum and chemical products to related parties and third parties operating in
+the petroleum and chemical industries. The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not
+require collateral on trade accounts receivable. The Group maintains an impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within
+management's expectations.
+Credit risk
+The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, and set appropriate risk limits and
+controls to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
+conditions and the Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management controls and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and
+constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. Internal audit department undertakes both regular
+and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Group's audit committee.
+The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework, and developing

+The standardised measure of discounted future net cash flows, related to the above proved oil and gas reserves, is calculated in accordance with the

+oil and gas during the twelve-month period before the ending date of the period covered by the report to year-end quantities of estimated net proved
+reserves. Future price changes are limited to those provided by contractual arrangements in existence at the end of each reporting year. Future
+development and production costs are those estimated future expenditures necessary to develop and produce year-end estimated proved reserves based
+on year-end cost indices, assuming continuation of year-end economic conditions. Estimated future income taxes are calculated by applying appropriate
+year-end statutory tax rates to estimated future pre-tax net cash flows, less the tax basis of related assets. Discounted future net cash flows are
+calculated using 10% midperiod discount factors. This discounting requires a year-by-year estimate of when the future expenditure will be incurred and
+when the reserves will be produced.

+Annual Report 2014 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+Wang Tianpu
+Risks with regard to the cyclical effects
+from the industry: The majority of the
+operational income of the Company comes
+from the sales of refined oil products and
+petrochemical products, and part of the
+business and their related products are cyclic
+and are sensitive to macro-economy, cyclic
+changes of regional and global economy,
+the changes of the production capacity
+and output, demand of consumers, prices
+and supply of the raw materials, as well as
+prices and supply of the alternative products
+etc. Although the Company is an integrated
+company with the integration of upstream,
+midstream and downstream businesses, it
+can only counteract the adverse influences of
+periodicity of the industry to some extent.
+Secondly, the reports prepared by Sinopec Corp.
+in 2014 complied with the relevant regulation
+of domestic and overseas securities regulators,
+and the annual financial statement of Sinopec
+Corp. was prepared in accordance with ASBE
+and IFRS respectively, truly and fairly reflecting
+Sinopec Corp.'s financial status and operation
+performance. The dividend distribution plan
+was made after comprehensively considering
+the equity interests of shareholders and the
+long-term interests of Sinopec Corp. The
+information disclosed in the annual report was
+true, accurate and complete. No violation of
+confidential provisions of persons who prepared
+and reviewed the report was found.
+Annual Report 2014 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+exploration and development sector, further
+improvement in pricing mechanism of refined
+oil products, reforming and improvement
+in pricing mechanism of natural gas, and
+reforming in resource tax and environmental
+tax. Such regulations may have material
+effect on the operations and profitability of
+the Company.
+Risks with regard to the changes from
+environmental legislation requirements:
+Our production activities generate waste
+water, gases and solids. But the Company
+has built up the supporting effluent
+treatment systems to prevent and reduce
+the pollution to the environment. And the
+relevant government authorities may issue
+and implement much stricter environmental
+protection laws and regulations, adopt
+much stricter environment protection
+standards. For this reason, the Company
+may increase more expenses in relation to
+the environment protection accordingly.
+Risks from the uncertainties of obtaining
+additional oil and gas resources: The future
+sustainable development of the Company
+is partly dependent to a certain extent on
+our abilities in continuously discovering
+or acquiring additional oil and natural
+gas resources. To obtain additional oil
+and natural gas resources, the Company
+faces some inherent risks associated with
+exploration and development and/or with
+acquiring activities, and the Company has
+to invest a large amount of money with
+no guarantee of certainty. The proved
+reserves are subject to crude oil and gas
+prices fluctuation. If the Company fails to
+acquire additional resources though further
+exploration, development and acquisition or
+crude oil and gas prices fell sharply, the oil
+and natural gas reserves and production of
+the Company will decline over time which
+will adversely affect the Company's financial
+situation and operation performance.
+Risks with regard to the external purchase
+of crude oil: A significant amount of crude
+oil as need by the Company is satisfied
+through the external purchases. In recent
+years, especially influenced by the mismatch
+between supply and demand of crude oil,
+geopolitics, global economic growth and
+other factors, the crude oil prices are subject
+to a significant fluctuation. Additionally, the
+supply of crude oil may even be interrupted
+due to some extreme major incidents.
+Although the Company has taken flexible
+counter measures, it may not fully avoid risks
+associated with any significant fluctuation of
+international crude oil prices and disruption
+of supply of crude oil.
+Risks with regard to the operation
+and natural disasters: The process of
+petroleum chemical production is exposed
+to the risks of inflammation, explosion and
+environmental pollution and is vulnerable to
+natural disasters. Such contingencies may
+cause serious impacts to the society, major
+financial losses to the Company and grievous
+injuries to people. The Company has always
+been paying great emphasis on the safety
+of production, and has implemented a
+strict HSE management system as an effort
+to avoid such risks as far as possible.
+Meanwhile, the main assets and inventories
+of the Company have been insured. However,
+such measures may not shield the Company
+from financial losses or adverse impact
+resulting from such contingencies.
+Investment risks: Petroleum and chemical
+sector is a capital intensive industry.
+Although the Company adopted a prudent
+investment strategy and conducted rigorous
+feasibility study on each investment project,
+some certain investment risks may exist
+in the sense that expected returns may
+not be achieved due to major changes
+in factors such as market environment,
+prices of equipment and raw materials,
+and construction period during the
+implementation of the projects.
+Currency risks: At present, China
+implements an administered floating
+exchange rate regime based on market
+supply and demand which is regulated
+with reference to a basket of currencies
+in terms of the exchange rate of RMB.
+As the Company purchases a significant
+portion of crude oil in foreign currency
+which is based on US dollar-denominated
+prices and the company had issued some
+foreign currency bonds, fluctuations in
+the exchange rate of Renminbi against
+US dollars and certain other foreign
+currencies may affect the Company's
+purchasing costs of crude oil and the cost
+of foreign currency bond redemption.

+An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures
+selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due
+to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation
+of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the
+appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
+presentation of the financial statements.
+Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with China
+Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
+assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

+Surplus
+In a business combination involving entities not under common control achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity
+interest in the acquiree on the acquisition date. The difference between the fair value and the net book value is recognised as investment
+income for the year. If other comprehensive income was recognised regarding the equity interest previously held in the acquiree before the
+acquisition date, the relevant other comprehensive income is transferred to investment income in the period in which the acquisition occurs.
+Where control of a subsidiary is lost due to partial disposal of the equity investment held in a subsidiary, or any other reasons, the Group
+derecognises assets, liabilities, minority interests and other equity items related to the subsidiary. The remaining equity investment is
+remeasured to fair value at the date in which control is lost. The sum of consideration received from disposal of equity investment and the
+fair value of the remaining equity investment, net of the fair value of the Group's previous share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets
+recorded from the acquisition date, is recognised in investment income in the period in which control is lost. Other comprehensive income
+related to the previous equity investment in the subsidiary, is transferred to investment income when control is lost.
+Where the Company acquired a minority interest from a subsidiary's minority shareholders, the difference between the investment cost and
+the newly acquired interest into the subsidiary's identifiable net assets at the acquisition date is adjusted to the capital reserve (capital
+surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. Where the Company partially disposed an investment of a subsidiary that do not result in a loss
+of control, the difference between the proceeds and the corresponding share of the interest into the subsidiary is adjusted to the capital
+reserve (capital surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. If the credit balance of capital reserve (capital surplus) is insufficient, any excess
+is adjusted to retained profits.
+Where the Company acquires a subsidiary during the reporting year through a business combination involving entities not under common
+control, the identifiable assets, liabilities and results of operations of the subsidiaries are consolidated into consolidated financial statements
+from the date that control commences, based on the fair value of those identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.
+Where the Company combines a subsidiary during the reporting period through a business combination involving entities under common
+control, the financial statements of the subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements as if the combination had occurred at
+the beginning of the earliest comparative year presented or, if later, at the date that common control was established. Therefore the opening
+balances and the comparative figures of the consolidated financial statements are restated. In the preparation of the consolidated financial
+statements, the subsidiary's assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated
+income statement, respectively, based on their carrying amounts in the subsidiary's financial statements, from the date that common control
+was established.
+The scope of consolidated financial statements is based on control and the consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its
+subsidiaries. Control means an entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability
+to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial
+statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
+(c) Method for preparation of consolidated financial statements
+A business combination involving entities or businesses not under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are not ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination. Difference
+between the consideration paid by the Group as the acquirer, comprises of the aggregate of the fair value at the acquisition date of assets
+given, including equity interest of the acquiree held before the acquisition date, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued
+by the acquirer in exchange for control of the acquiree, and the Group's interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree,
+is recognised as goodwill (Note 3(9)) if it is an excess, otherwise in the profit or loss. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt
+securities issued as the consideration of the combination is recognised in the initial cost of the securities. Any other expense directly
+attributable to the business combination is recognised in the profit or loss for the year. The difference between the fair value and the book
+value of the assets given is recognised in profit or loss. The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, if satisfying
+the recognition criteria, are recognised by the Group at their fair value at the acquisition date. The acquisition date is the date on which the
+acquirer effectively obtains control of the acquiree.
+(b) Business combination involving entities not under common control
+A business combination involving entities or businesses under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination, and that
+control is not transitory. The assets and liabilities that the acquirer receives in the acquisition are accounted for at the acquiree's carrying
+amount on the acquisition date. The difference between the carrying amount of the acquired net assets and the carrying amount of the
+consideration paid for the acquisition (or the total nominal value of shares issued) is recognised in the share premium of capital reserve, or
+the retained earnings in case of any shortfall in the share premium of capital reserve. Any costs directly attributable to the combination shall
+be recognised in profit or loss for the current period when occurred. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt securities issued as
+the consideration of the combination is recognised in the initial cost of the securities. The combination date is the date on which the acquirer
+effectively obtains control of the acquiree.

+Inventories are recorded by perpetual method.
+Inventories include raw materials, work in progress, semi-finished goods, finished goods and reusable materials. Reusable materials include
+low-value consumables, packaging materials and other materials, which can be used repeatedly but do not meet the definition of fixed assets.
+Reusable materials are amortised in full when received for use. The amounts of the amortisation are included in the cost of the related assets or
+profit or loss.
+Any excess of the cost over the net realisable value of each item of inventories is recognised as a provision for diminution in the value of
+inventories. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the
+estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes. The net realisable value of materials held for use in the production is measured
+based on the net realisable value of the finished goods in which they will be incorporated. The net realisable value of the quantity of inventory
+held to satisfy sales or service contracts is measured based on the contract price. If the quantities held by the Group are more than the
+quantities of inventories specified in sales contracts, the net realisable value of the excess portion of inventories is measured based on general
+selling prices.
+At the balance sheet date, inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
+Inventories are initially measured at cost. Cost includes the cost of purchase and processing, and other expenditures incurred in bringing the
+inventories to their present location and condition. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method. In addition to the
+cost of purchase of raw material, work in progress and finished goods include direct labour and an appropriate allocation of manufacturing
+overhead costs.
+(4) Inventories
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, demand deposits, short-term and highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into
+known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
+The assets and liabilities of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The equity
+items, excluding “Retained earnings", are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the transaction dates. The income and expenses
+of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates on the transaction dates. The resulting exchange differences are
+separately presented as other comprehensive income in the balance sheet within equity. Upon disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative
+amount of the exchange differences recognised in which relate to that foreign operation is transferred to profit or loss in the year in which the
+disposal occurs.
+Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the PBOC rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences, except for those directly
+related to the acquisition, construction or production of qualified assets, are recognised as income or expenses in the income statement. Non-
+monetary items denominated in foreign currency measured at historical cost are not translated. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign
+currency that are measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The difference
+between the translated amount and the original currency amount is recognised as other comprehensive income, if it is classified as available-for-
+sale financial assets; or charged to the income statement if it is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
+Foreign currency transactions are, on initial recognition, translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates quoted by the People's Bank of
+China ("PBOC rates") at the transaction dates.
+(2) Transactions in foreign currencies and translation of financial statements in foreign currencies
+The unrealised profit or loss arising from the sale of assets by the Company to its subsidiaries is eliminated in full against the net profit
+attributed to shareholders. The unrealised profit or loss from the sale of assets by subsidiaries to the Company is eliminated according to the
+distribution ratio between shareholders of the parent company and minority interests. For sale of assets that occurred between subsidiaries,
+the unrealised gains and losses is eliminated according to the distribution ratio for its subsidiaries seller between net profit attributable to
+shareholders of the parent company and minority interests.
+Where the accounting policies and accounting period adopted by the subsidiaries are different from those adopted by the Company,
+adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements according to the Company's accounting policies and accounting period. Intra-
+group balances and transactions, and any unrealised profit or loss arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the
+consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as unrealised
+gains but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
+The excess of the loss attributable to the minority interests during the period over the minority interests' share of the equity at the beginning
+of the reporting period is deducted from minority interests.
+Minority interest is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet within shareholders' equity. Net profit or loss attributable to
+minority shareholders is presented separately in the consolidated income statement below the net profit line item.

+(5) Long-term equity investments
+(a) Investment in subsidiaries
+(d) Hedge accounting
+Hedge accounting is a method which recognises the offsetting effects on profit or loss of changes in the fair values of the hedging instrument
+and the hedged item in the same accounting period(s).
+Hedged items are the items that expose the Group to risks of changes in fair value or future cash flows and that are designated as being
+hedged. The Group's hedged items include fixed-rate borrowings that expose the Group to risk of changes in fair values, floating rate
+borrowings that expose the Group to risk of variability in cash flows, and a forecast transaction that is settled with a fixed amount of foreign
+currency and expose the Group to foreign currency risk.
+A hedging instrument is a designated derivative whose changes in fair value or cash flows are expected to offset changes in the fair value or
+cash flows of the hedged item. For a hedge of foreign currency risk, a non-derivative financial asset or non-derivative financial liability may
+also be used as a hedging instrument.
+The hedge is assessed by the Group for effectiveness on an ongoing basis and determined to have been highly effective throughout the
+accounting periods for which the hedging relationship was designated. The Group uses a ratio analysis to assess the subsequent effectiveness
+of a cash flow hedge, and uses a regression analysis to assess the subsequent effectiveness of a fair value hedge.

+Annual Report 2014 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+The Group classifies financial assets and liabilities into different categories at initial recognition based on the purpose of acquiring assets
+and assuming liabilities: financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity
+investments, available-for-sale financial assets and other financial liabilities.
+The Group recognises a financial asset or a financial liability on its balance sheet when the Group enters into and becomes a party to the
+underlining contract of the financial instrument.
+(a) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial instruments
+Financial instruments of the Group include cash and cash equivalents, bond investments, equity securities other than long-term equity
+investments, receivables, derivative financial instruments, payables, loans, bonds payable, and share capital, etc.
+If no active market exists for a financial instrument, a valuation technique is used to establish the fair value. Valuation techniques include
+using arm's length market transactions between knowledge, and willing parties; reference to the current fair value of other instrument that is
+substantially the same; discounted cash flows and option pricing model. The Group calibrates the valuation technique and tests it for validity
+periodically.
+(11) Financial Instruments
+The assets and liabilities in the non-current asset or disposal groups which have been classified as assets held for sale are classified as current
+assets and current liabilities.
+Non-current assets, except for financial assets and deferred tax assets that satisfy there cognition criteria for assets held for sale are stated at to
+the lower of carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell. Any excess of the original carrying amount over the fair value less costs to sell
+is recognised as asset impairment loss.
+Non-current assets or disposal group that meet the following conditions will be classified as held for sale. (i) for the non-current assets or the
+disposal group, they can only be sold immediately in current condition, according to the usual terms of selling the assets or disposal group;
+(ii) the Group has made the resolution and obtain the appropriate approval on disposal of the non-current assets or the disposal group; (iii) the
+Group has signed an irrevocable transfer agreement with the transferee; (iv) the transfer will be completed within one year.
+(10) Held for sale and discontinued operation
+Goodwill is not amortised and is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). On disposal of an asset group or a set of
+asset groups, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is written off and included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.
+The initial cost of goodwill represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets
+of the acquiree under the business combination involving entities not under common control.
+(9) Goodwill
+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+for the year ended 31 December 2014
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+Annual Report 2014 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, can be clearly
+distinguished operationally and for financial reporting purposes from the rest of the Group and (i) represents a separate major line of business
+or geographical area of operations, (ii) is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area
+of operations, or (iii) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
+If there is an active market for a financial asset or financial liability, the quoted price in the active market is used to establish the fair value
+of the financial asset or financial liability.
+(c) Determination of fair value
+the Group intends to settle the financial assets and liabilities on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities
+simultaneously.
+A financial asset or financial liability is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is acquired or incurred principally for the
+purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term or if it is a derivative, unless the derivative is a designated and effective hedging
+instrument, or a financial guarantee contract, or a derivative that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of an unquoted equity
+instrument (without a quoted price from an active market) whose fair value cannot be reliably measured. These financial instruments
+are initially measured at fair value with subsequently changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Subsequent to initial recognition,
+financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognised
+in profit or loss.
+Receivables
+Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable recoverable amount and with no quoted price in active market.
+After the initial recognition, receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
+Held-to-maturity investment
+Held-to-maturity investment includes non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable recoverable amount and fixed maturity that
+the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are
+measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

+(11) Financial Instruments (Continued)
+(a) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial instruments (Continued)
+Available-for-sale financial assets
+Available-for-sale financial assets include non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sales and other financial
+assets which do not fall into any of the above categories.
+Available-for-sale financial assets whose fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost subsequent to initial recognition.
+Other than the above equity instrument investments whose fair values cannot be measured reliably, other available-for-sale financial assets
+are initially stated at fair values. The gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are directly recognised in equity, except for
+the impairment losses and exchange differences from monetary financial assets denominated in foreign currencies, which are recognised
+in profit or loss. The cumulative gains and losses previously recognised in equity are transferred to profit or loss when the available-for-
+sale financial assets are derecognised. Dividend income from these equity instruments is recognised in profit or loss when the investee
+declares the dividends. Interest on available-for-sale financial assets calculated using the effective interest rate method is recognised in
+profit or loss (see Note 3(17) (c)).
+Other financial liabilities
+Financial liabilities other than the financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are classified as other financial liabilities.
+Other financial liabilities include the liabilities arising from financial guarantee contracts. Financial guarantees are contracts that require
+the issuer (i.e. the guarantor) to make specified payments to reimburse the beneficiary of the guarantee (the holder) for a loss the holder
+incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Where the Group
+issues a financial guarantee, subsequent to initial recognition, the guarantee is measured at the higher of the amount initially recognised
+less accumulated amortisation and the amount of a provision determined in accordance with the principles of contingencies (see Note
+3(16)).
+Except for the other financial liabilities described above, subsequent to initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at
+amortised cost using the effective interest method.
+(b) Disclosure of financial assets and financial liabilities
+In the balance sheet, financial assets and liabilities are not offset unless all the following conditions are met:
+the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off financial assets against financial liabilities; and

+Useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed at least each year end.
+Intangible assets, where the estimated useful life is finite, are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortisation and provision
+for impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). For an intangible asset with finite useful life, its cost less estimated residual value and accumulated
+impairment losses is amortised on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives, unless the intangible assets are classified as held for sale
+(see Note 3(10)).
+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2014
+The impairment assessment and provision accrual on investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled enterprises are stated in
+Note 3(12).
+(c) The impairment assessment method and provision accrual on investment
+The Group adjusts the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment for changes in owners' equity of the investee other than those
+arising from net profits or losses and other comprehensive income, and recognises the corresponding adjustment in equity.
+The Group discontinues recognising its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment and
+any long-term interest that is in substance forms part of the Group's net investment in the associate or the jointly controlled entity is reduced
+to zero, except to the extent that the Group has an obligation to assume additional losses. However, if the Group has incurred obligations for
+additional losses and the conditions on recognition of provision are satisfied in accordance with the accounting standard on contingencies,
+the Group continues recognising the investment losses and the provision. Where net profits are subsequently made by the associate or jointly
+controlled entity, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not
+recognised.
+The Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses after making appropriate adjustments to align the accounting policies
+or accounting periods with those of the Group based on the fair values of the investee's net identifiable assets at the time of acquisition.
+Under the equity accounting method, unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its associates or
+jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associates or jointly controlled entities. Unrealised losses
+resulting from transactions between the Group and its associates or jointly controlled entities are fully recognised in the event that there is an
+evidence of impairment.
+Where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable
+net assets at the date of acquisition, the investment is initially recognised at the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost is
+less than the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition, the investment is initially
+recognised at the investor's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets, and the difference is charged to profit or loss.
+After the acquisition of the investment, the Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses and other comprehensive income,
+as investment income or losses and other comprehensive income, and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment accordingly. Once the
+investee declares any cash dividends or profits distributions, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced by that attributable to the
+Group.
+(b) Investment in jointly controlled entities and associates (Continued)
+The Group's accounting treatments when adopting the equity method include:

+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+for the year ended 31 December 2014
+85
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+84
+The initial cost of investment in jointly controlled entities and associates is stated at the consideration paid except for cash dividends or
+profits distributions declared but unpaid at the time of acquisition and therefore included in the consideration paid should be deducted if the
+investment is made in cash, or at the fair value of the non-monetary assets exchanged for the investment. The difference between the fair
+value of the non-monetary assets being exchanged and its carrying amount is charged to profit or loss.
+An investment in a jointly controlled entity or an associate is accounted for using the equity method, unless the investment is classified as
+held for sale (see Note 3(10)).
+An associate is the investee that the Group has significant influence on their financial and operating policies. Significant influence represents
+the right to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over the establishment
+of these policies. The Group generally considers the following circumstances in determining whether it can exercise significant influence
+over the investee: whether there is representative appointed to the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the investee; whether
+to participate in the investee's policy-making process; whether there are significant transactions with the investees; whether there is
+management personnel sent to the investee; whether to provide critical technical information to the investee.
+A joint venture is an incorporated entity over which the Group, based on legal form, contractual terms and other facts and circumstances,
+has joint control with the other parties to the joint venture and rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually
+agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of
+the Group and the parties sharing control.
+(b) Investment in jointly controlled entities and associates
+An investment in a subsidiary acquired otherwise than through a business combination is initially recognised at actual purchase cost if the
+Group acquires the investment by cash, or at the fair value of the equity securities issued if an investment is acquired by issuing equity
+securities, or at the value stipulated in the investment contract or agreement if an investment is contributed by investors.
+For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the initial
+investment cost comprises the aggregate of the fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued
+by the Company, in exchange for control of the acquiree. For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not
+involving enterprises under common control, if it is achieved in stages, the initial cost comprises the carrying value of previously-held equity
+investment in the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date, and the additional investment cost at the acquisition date.
+The initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination involving entities under common
+control is the Company's share of the carrying amount of the subsidiary's equity at the combination date. The difference between the initial
+investment cost and the carrying amounts of the consideration given is adjusted to share premium in capital reserve. If the balance of the
+share premium is insufficient, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings.
+In the Company's separate financial statements, long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method.
+Except for cash dividends or profits distributions declared but not yet distributed that have been included in the price or consideration paid
+in obtaining the investments, the Company recognises its share of the cash dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee as
+investment income irrespective of whether these represent the net profit realised by the investee before or after the investment. Investments
+in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(12)) in the balance sheet. At initial recognition, such investments are
+measured as follows:
+In the Group's consolidated financial statements, investment in subsidiaries are accounted for in accordance with the principles described in
+Note 3(1)(c).

+(8) Intangible assets
+Capitalised costs relating to proved properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method.
+The Group estimates future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration
+the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with the industry practices. These estimated future dismantlement costs are
+discounted at credit-adjusted risk-free rate and are capitalised as oil and gas properties, which are subsequently amortised as part of the costs
+of the oil and gas properties.
+Costs of development wells and related support equipment are capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially capitalised as construction
+in progress pending determination of whether the well has found proved reserves. Exploratory well costs are charged to expenses upon the
+determination that the well has not found proved reserves. However, in the absence of a determination of the discovery of proved reserves,
+exploratory well costs are not carried as an asset for more than one year following completion of drilling. If, after one year has passed, a
+determination of the discovery of proved reserves cannot be made, the exploratory well costs are impaired and charged to expense. All other
+exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, are charged to profit or loss in the year as incurred.
+Oil and gas properties include the mineral interests in properties, wells and related support equipment arising from oil and gas exploration and
+production activities.

+Other than oil and gas properties, the cost of fixed assets less residual value and accumulated impairment losses is depreciated using the
+straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, unless the fixed asset is classified as held for sale (see Note 3(10)). The estimated useful
+lives and the estimated rate of residual values adopted for respective classes of fixed assets are as follows:
+The Group terminates the recognition of an item of fixed asset when it is in a state of disposal or it is estimated that it is unable to generate
+any economic benefits through use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of fixed asset are determined
+as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of
+retirement or disposal.
+The subsequent costs including the cost of replacing part of an item of fixed assets are recognised in the carrying amount of the item if the
+recognition criteria are satisfied, and the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of fixed
+assets are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
+Where the individual component parts of an item of fixed asset have different useful lives or provide benefits to the Group in different patterns
+thus necessitating use of different depreciation rates or methods, each part is recognised as a separate fixed asset.
+Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when the asset is ready for its intended use. No depreciation is provided against
+construction in progress.
+The cost of a purchased fixed asset comprises the purchase price, related taxes, and any directly attributable expenditure for bringing the asset
+to working condition for its intended use. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour, capitalised borrowing
+costs (see Note 3(19)), and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use. Costs of
+dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which the related assets located are included in the initial cost.
+Fixed assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). Construction in
+progress is stated in the balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(12)).
+Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Group using in the production of goods, rendering of services and for operation and
+administrative purposes with useful life over one year.

+and Three-Year Rolling Development Program,
+taking advantage of our integrated value chain
+to accelerate the Company's transformation and
+structural adjustments, eventually we achieved
+excellent operating performance. At the same
+time, we made outstanding progress in our
+corporate governance, corporate development,
+reforms and adjustments, and technological
+innovation, as well as in the fulfillment of our
+social responsibilities.
+In accordance with IFRS, the Company's
+turnover and other operating revenues reached
+RMB 2.36 trillion in 2017, up by 22.2% from
+the previous year. Profit attributable to equity
+shareholders of the Company was RMB 51.244
+billion. Basic earnings per share were RMB
+0.423, up by 9.9% from year on year. Taking
+into account the Company's profitability,
+cash position, shareholder return and future
+business development, the Board proposed a
+final dividend of RMB 0.40 per share, which
+combined with the interim dividend of RMB 0.10
+per share, brought the full-year dividend to RMB
+0.50 per share, up by 100.8% from the previous
+year.
+Over the past year, under the leadership of
+our management, the entire staff focused on
+optimisation, cost reduction, market expansion,
+structural adjustment, reform, foundation
+building, and risk management. As a result, our
+operating results were better than expected, and
+we met all performance targets for the year. In
+our upstream business, we emphasized high-
+efficiency exploration activities and cost-effective
+development. Our crude oil reserve replacement
+ratio reached 116%. At the same time, we
+worked hard to ensure a stable gas supply for
+the winter season, with gas production and sales
+volume hitting record highs. Taking advantage
+of our integrated value chain, which extends
+from refining to marketing and distribution,
+we actively responded to competitive market
+conditions. We achieved satisfactory results and
+further strengthened our competitive advantage.
+In our chemical operations, we adopted a
+customer-focused approach and enhanced the
+adjustments in our product and feedstock mix.
+Both the sales volume and profitability of the
+chemicals segment reached record highs.
+In 2017, international oil prices fluctuated and
+showed upward movement in the midst of a
+complex and changeable global political and
+economic environment. Domestic demand for
+natural gas and chemicals remained robust as
+the Chinese economy maintained its steady
+growth. Competition in the domestic refined oil
+market was fierce. As it made major decisions,
+the Board of Directors (the "Board") focused on
+steady and firm improvement, and adhered to
+its overarching strategies of promoting value.

+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+1 STATUS OF THE COMPANY
+China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (the "Company") was established on 25 February 2000 as a joint stock limited company. The company is
+registered in Beijing, the People's Republic of China, and the headquarter is located in Beijing, the People's Republic of China. The approval date of
+the financial report is 23 March 2018.
+According to the State Council's approval to the "Preliminary Plan for the Reorganisation of China Petrochemical Corporation" (the "Reorganisation"),
+the Company was established by China Petrochemical Corporation ("Sinopec Group Company"), which transferred its core businesses together with
+the related assets and liabilities at 30 September 1999 to the Company. Such assets and liabilities had been valued jointly by China United Assets
+Appraisal Corporation, Beijing Zhong Zheng Appraisal Company, CIECC Assets Appraisal Corporation and Zhong Fa International Properties Valuation
+Corporation. The net asset value was determined at RMB 98,249,084,000. The valuation was reviewed and approved by the Ministry of Finance (the
+"MOF") (Cai Ping Zi [2000] No. 20 "Comments on the Review of the Valuation Regarding the Formation of a Joint Stock Limited Company by China
+Petrochemical Corporation").
+In addition, pursuant to the notice Cai Guan Zi [2000] No. 34 "Reply to the Issue Regarding Management of State-Owned Equity by China Petroleum
+and Chemical Corporation" issued by the MOF, 68.8 billion domestic state-owned shares with a par value of RMB 1.00 each were issued to Sinopec
+Group Company, the amount of which is equivalent to 70% of the above net asset value transferred from Sinopec Group Company to the Company
+in connection with the Reorganisation.
+These financial statements are prepared on a basis of going concern.
+Pursuant to the notice Guo Jing Mao Qi Gai [2000] No. 154 "Reply on the Formation of China Petroleum and Chemical Corporation", the Company
+obtained the approval from the State Economic and Trade Commission on 21 February 2000 for the formation of a joint stock limited company.
+The Company took over the exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas, refining, chemicals and related sales and
+marketing business of Sinopec Group Company after the establishment of the Company.
+(2) the refining, transportation, storage and marketing of crude oil and petroleum product; and
+(3) the production and sale of chemical.
+Details of the Company's principal subsidiaries are set out in Note 56.
+2 BASIS OF PREPARATION
+(1) Statement of compliance of China Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("ASBE")
+- Basic
+The Company and its subsidiaries (the "Group") engage in the oil and gas and chemical operations and businesses, including:
+Financial Statements (PRC)
+(ii) a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
+(iii) it becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
+The gain or loss from remeasuring the hedging instrument at fair value is recognised in profit or loss. The gain or loss on the hedged
+item attributable to the hedged risk adjusts the carrying amount of the hedged item and is recognised in profit or loss.
+When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the Group
+discontinues prospectively the hedge accounting treatments. If the hedged item is a financial instrument measured at amortised cost, any
+adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item is amortised to profit or loss from the adjustment date to the maturity date using
+the recalculated effective interest rate at the adjustment date.
+Hedge of net investment in foreign operation
+A hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation is a hedge of the exposure to foreign exchange risk associated with a net investment
+in a foreign operation. The portion of the gain or loss on a hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised
+directly in equity as a separate component until the disposal of the foreign operation, at which time the cumulative gain or loss
+recognised directly in equity is recognised in profit or loss. The ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
+(e) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
+The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset expires, or where the Group
+transfers substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or where the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially
+all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset but the Group gives up the control of a financial asset.
+A fair value hedge is a hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm
+commitment, or an identified portion of such an asset, liability or unrecognised firm commitment.
+On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the following amounts is recognised in profit or loss:
+the sum of the consideration received and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised directly in equity.
+Where the obligations for financial liabilities are completely or partially discharged, the entire or parts of financial liabilities are derecognised.
+(11) Impairment of financial assets and non-financial long-term assets
+(a) Impairment of financial assets
+The carrying amount of financial assets (except those financial assets stated at fair value with changes in the fair values charged to profit or
+loss) are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. If any such evidence exists,
+impairment loss is provided.
+Objective evidences of impairment include but not limited to:
+(i) significant financial difficulty of the debtor;
+the carrying amounts; and
+(d) Hedge accounting (Continued)
+Fair value hedges

+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2017
+A business combination involving entities or businesses under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination, and that
+control is not transitory. The assets and liabilities that the acquirer receives in the acquisition are accounted for at the acquiree's carrying
+amount on the acquisition date. The difference between the carrying amount of the acquired net assets and the carrying amount of the
+consideration paid for the acquisition (or the total nominal value of shares issued) is recognised in the share premium of capital reserve, or
+the retained earnings in case of any shortfall in the share premium of capital reserve. Any costs directly attributable to the combination shall
+be recognised in profit or loss for the current period when occurred. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt securities issued as
+the consideration of the combination is recognised in the initial cost of the securities. The combination date is the date on which the acquirer
+effectively obtains control of the acquiree.
+(vi) a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
+(v) significant changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have an adverse effect on the debtor; and the cost of
+investment may not be recoverable; and
+(iv) due to the significant financial difficulty of the debtor, financial assets is unable to be traded in active market;
+the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument from inception of the hedge;
+the cumulative change in present value of the expected future cash flows on the hedged item from inception of the hedge.
+The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an ineffective hedge is recognised in profit or loss.
+If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, the associated gain or loss is removed
+from shareholders' equity, included in the initial cost of the non-financial asset, and recognised in profit or loss in the same year during
+which the non-financial asset affects profit or loss. However, if the Group expects that all or a portion of a net loss recognised directly in
+shareholders' equity will not be recovered in future accounting periods, it reclassifies the amount that is not expected to be recovered into
+profit or loss.
+If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the associated gain
+or loss is removed from equity and recognised in profit or loss in the same period during which the financial asset or financial liability
+affects profit or loss. However, if the Group expects that all or a portion of a net loss recognised directly in shareholders' equity will not
+be recovered in future accounting periods, it reclassifies the amount that is not expected to be recovered into profit or loss.
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding two policy statements, the associated gain or loss is removed from
+shareholders' equity and recognised in profit or loss in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecast transaction affects
+profit or loss.
+When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting,
+the Group will discontinue the hedge accounting treatments prospectively. In this case, the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that
+remains recognised directly in shareholders' equity from the period when the hedge was effective shall not be reclassified into profit or
+loss and is recognised in accordance with the above policy when the forecast transaction occurs. If the forecast transaction is no longer
+expected to occur, the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that remains recognised directly in shareholders' equity from the period
+when the hedge was effective shall be reclassified into profit or loss immediately.

+(b) Business combination involving entities not under common control
+Inventories include raw materials, work in progress, semi-finished goods, finished goods and reusable materials. Reusable materials include
+low-value consumables, packaging materials and other materials, which can be used repeatedly but do not meet the definition of fixed assets.
+Reusable materials are amortised in full when received for use. The amounts of the amortisation are included in the cost of the related assets or
+profit or loss.
+(c) Method for preparation of consolidated financial statements
+Useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed at least each year end.
+(9) Goodwill
+The initial cost of goodwill represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets
+of the acquiree under the business combination involving entities not under common control.
+Goodwill is not amortised and is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses (see Note 3(11)). On disposal of an asset group or a set of
+asset groups, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is written off and included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.
+(10) Financial Instruments
+Financial instruments of the Group include cash and cash equivalents, bond investments, equity securities other than long-term equity
+investments, receivables, derivative financial instruments, payables, loans, bonds payable, and share capital, financial asset with change in fair
+value recognised through profit or loss, etc.
+Intangible assets, where the estimated useful life is finite, are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortisation and provision
+for impairment losses (see Note 3(11)). For an intangible asset with finite useful life, its cost less estimated residual value and accumulated
+impairment losses is amortised on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives, unless the intangible assets are classified as held for sale.
+An intangible asset is regarded as having an indefinite useful life and is not amortised when there is no foreseeable limit to the year over which
+the asset is expected to generate economic benefits for the Group.
+(a) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial instruments
+The Group classifies financial assets and liabilities into different categories at initial recognition based on the purpose of acquiring assets
+and assuming liabilities: financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity
+investments, available-for-sale financial assets and other financial liabilities.
+Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. For financial asset or financial liability of which the change in its
+fair value is recognised in profit or loss, the relevant transaction cost is recognised in profit or loss. The transaction costs for other financial
+assets or financial liabilities are included in the initially recognised amount. Subsequent to initial recognition financial assets and liabilities
+are measured as follows:
+Financial asset or financial liability with change in fair value recognised through profit or loss
+A financial asset or financial liability is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is acquired or incurred principally for the
+purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term or if it is a derivative, unless the derivative is a designated and effective hedging
+instrument, or a financial guarantee contract, or a derivative that is linked to and must be settled by delivery of an unquoted equity
+instrument (without a quoted price from an active market) whose fair value cannot be reliably measured. These financial instruments
+are initially measured at fair value with subsequently changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Subsequent to initial recognition,
+financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognised
+in profit or loss.
+Loans and Receivables
+Loans and Receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable recoverable amount and with no quoted price in
+active market. After the initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
+Held-to-maturity investment
+The Group recognises a financial asset or a financial liability on its balance sheet when the Group enters into and becomes a party to the
+underlining contract of the financial instrument.
+Held-to-maturity investment includes non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable recoverable amount and fixed maturity that
+the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Subsequent to initial recognition, held-to-maturity investments are
+measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

+Oil and gas properties include the mineral interests in properties, wells and related support equipment arising from oil and gas exploration and
+production activities.
+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+The acquisition cost of mineral interest is capitalised as oil and gas properties. Costs of development wells and related support equipment are
+capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially capitalised as construction in progress pending determination of whether the well has found
+proved reserves. Exploratory well costs are charged to expenses upon the determination that the well has not found proved reserves. However,
+in the absence of a determination of the discovery of proved reserves, exploratory well costs are not carried as an asset for more than one
+year following completion of drilling. If, after one year has passed, a determination of the discovery of proved reserves cannot be made, the
+exploratory well costs are impaired and charged to expense. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, are charged
+to profit or loss in the year as incurred.
+Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based on volumes produced and reserves.

+(10) Financial Instruments (Continued)
+Hedge accounting is a method which recognises the offsetting effects on profit or loss of changes in the fair values of the hedging instrument
+and the hedged item in the same accounting period(s).
+Hedged items are the items that expose the Group to risks of changes in fair value or future cash flows and that are designated as being
+hedged. The Group's hedged items include fixed-rate borrowings that expose the Group to risk of changes in fair values, floating rate
+borrowings that expose the Group to risk of variability in cash flows, and a forecast transaction that is settled with a fixed amount of foreign
+currency and expose the Group to foreign currency risk, and a forecast transaction that is settled with an undetermined future market price
+and exposes the Group to risk of variability in cash flows, etc.
+A hedging instrument is a designated derivative whose changes in fair value or cash flows are expected to offset changes in the fair value or
+cash flows of the hedged item.
+The hedge is assessed by the Group for effectiveness on an ongoing basis and determined to have been highly effective throughout the
+accounting periods for which the hedging relationship was designated. The Group uses a ratio analysis to assess the subsequent effectiveness
+of a cash flow hedge, and uses a regression analysis to assess the subsequent effectiveness of a fair value hedge.
+Cash flow hedges
+A cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows. The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that
+is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised directly in shareholders' equity as a separate component. That effective portion is
+adjusted to the lesser of the following (in absolute amounts):
+(d) Hedge accounting
+If no active market exists for a financial instrument, a valuation technique is used to establish the fair value. Valuation techniques include
+using arm's length market transactions between knowledge, and willing parties; reference to the current fair value of other instrument that is
+substantially the same; discounted cash flows and option pricing model. The Group calibrates the valuation technique and tests it for validity
+periodically.
+If there is an active market for a financial asset or financial liability, the quoted price in the active market is used to establish the fair value
+of the financial asset or financial liability.
+(c) Determination of fair value
+for the year ended 31 December 2017
+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(10) Financial Instruments (Continued)
+(a) Classification, recognition and measurement of financial instruments (Continued)
+Available-for-sale financial assets
+-
+Available-for-sale financial assets include non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sales and other financial
+assets which do not fall into any of the above categories.
+Available-for-sale financial assets whose fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost subsequent to initial recognition.
+Other than the above equity instrument investments whose fair values cannot be measured reliably, other available-for-sale financial assets
+are initially stated at fair values. The gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are directly recognised in equity, except for
+the impairment losses and exchange differences from monetary financial assets denominated in foreign currencies, which are recognised
+in profit or loss. The cumulative gains and losses previously recognised in equity are transferred to profit or loss when the available-for-
+sale financial assets are derecognised. Dividend income from these equity instruments is recognised in profit or loss when the investee
+declares the dividends. Interest on available-for-sale debt instrument investments calculated using the effective interest rate method is
+recognised in profit or loss (see Note 3(16) (c)).
+Other financial liabilities
+Financial liabilities other than the financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are classified as other financial liabilities.
+Other financial liabilities include the liabilities arising from financial guarantee contracts. Financial guarantees are contracts that require
+the issuer (i.e. the guarantor) to make specified payments to reimburse the beneficiary of the guarantee (the holder) for a loss the holder
+incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Where the Group
+issues a financial guarantee, subsequent to initial recognition, the guarantee is measured at the higher of the amount initially recognised
+less accumulated amortisation and the amount of a provision determined in accordance with the principles of contingencies (see Note
+3(15)).
+Except for the other financial liabilities described above, subsequent to initial recognition, other financial liabilities are measured at
+amortised cost using the effective interest method.
+(b) Disclosure of financial assets and financial liabilities
+In the balance sheet, financial assets and liabilities are not offset unless all the following conditions are met:
+the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off financial assets against financial liabilities; and
+the Group intends to settle the financial assets and liabilities on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities
+simultaneously.
+Plants and buildings
+Other than oil and gas properties, the cost of fixed assets less residual value and accumulated impairment losses is depreciated using the
+straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, unless the fixed asset is classified as held for sale. The estimated useful lives and the
+estimated rate of residual values adopted for respective classes of fixed assets are as follows:
+The Group terminates the recognition of an item of fixed asset when it is in a state of disposal or it is estimated that it is unable to generate
+any economic benefits through use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of fixed asset are determined
+as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of
+retirement or disposal.
+The subsequent costs including the cost of replacing part of an item of fixed assets are recognised in the carrying amount of the item if the
+recognition criteria are satisfied, and the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of fixed
+assets are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
+Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the PBOC rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences, except for those directly
+related to the acquisition, construction or production of qualified assets, are recognised as income or expenses in the income statement. Non-
+monetary items denominated in foreign currency measured at historical cost are not translated. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign
+currency that are measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The difference
+between the translated amount and the original currency amount is recognised as other comprehensive income, if it is classified as available-for-
+sale financial assets; or charged to the income statement if it is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
+The assets and liabilities of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The equity
+items, excluding “Retained earnings", are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the transaction dates. The income and
+expenses of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates or an exchange rate that approximates the spot exchange
+rates on the transaction dates. The resulting exchange differences are separately presented as other comprehensive income in the balance sheet
+within equity. Upon disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognised in which relate to that foreign
+operation is transferred to profit or loss in the year in which the disposal occurs.
+(3) Cash and cash equivalents
+Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, demand deposits, short-term and highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into
+known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

+Annual Report 2017 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+(2) Transactions in foreign currencies and translation of financial statements in foreign currencies
+Foreign currency transactions are, on initial recognition, translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates quoted by the People's Bank of
+China ("PBOC rates") at the transaction dates.

+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(4) Inventories
+Inventories are initially measured at cost. Cost includes the cost of purchase and processing, and other expenditures incurred in bringing the
+inventories to their present location and condition. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method. In addition to the
+cost of purchase of raw material, work in progress and finished goods include direct labour and an appropriate allocation of manufacturing
+overhead costs.
+At the balance sheet date, inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
+Any excess of the cost over the net realisable value of each item of inventories is recognised as a provision for diminution in the value of
+inventories. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the
+estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes. The net realisable value of materials held for use in the production is measured
+based on the net realisable value of the finished goods in which they will be incorporated. The net realisable value of the quantity of inventory
+held to satisfy sales or service contracts is measured based on the contract price. If the quantities held by the Group are more than the
+quantities of inventories specified in sales contracts, the net realisable value of the excess portion of inventories is measured based on general
+selling prices.
+Inventories are recorded by perpetual method.
+for the year ended 31 December 2017
+The unrealised profit or loss arising from the sale of assets by the Company to its subsidiaries is eliminated in full against the net profit
+attributed to shareholders; the unrealised profit or loss from the sale of assets by subsidiaries to the Company is eliminated according to the
+distribution ratio between shareholders of the parent company and minority interests. For sale of assets that occurred between subsidiaries,
+the unrealised gains and losses is eliminated according to the distribution ratio for its subsidiaries seller between net profit attributable to
+shareholders of the parent company and minority interests.
+Where the accounting policies and accounting period adopted by the subsidiaries are different from those adopted by the Company,
+adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements according to the Company's accounting policies and accounting period. Intra-
+group balances and transactions, and any unrealised profit or loss arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the
+consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as unrealised
+gains but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
+The excess of the loss attributable to the minority interests during the period over the minority interests' share of the equity at the beginning
+of the reporting period is deducted from minority interests.
+The scope of consolidated financial statements is based on control and the consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its
+subsidiaries. Control means an entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability
+to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial
+statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
+Where the Company combines a subsidiary during the reporting period through a business combination involving entities under common
+control, the financial statements of the subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements as if the combination had occurred at
+the beginning of the earliest comparative year presented or, if later, at the date that common control was established. Therefore the opening
+balances and the comparative figures of the consolidated financial statements are restated. In the preparation of the consolidated financial
+statements, the subsidiary's assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated
+income statement, respectively, based on their carrying amounts in the subsidiary's financial statements, from the date that common control
+was established.
+Where the Company acquires a subsidiary during the reporting year through a business combination involving entities not under common
+control, the identifiable assets, liabilities and results of operations of the subsidiaries are consolidated into consolidated financial statements
+from the date that control commences, based on the fair value of those identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.
+Where the Company acquired a minority interest from a subsidiary's minority shareholders, the difference between the investment cost and
+the newly acquired interest into the subsidiary's identifiable net assets at the acquisition date is adjusted to the capital reserve (capital
+surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. Where the Company partially disposed an investment of a subsidiary that do not result in a loss
+of control, the difference between the proceeds and the corresponding share of the interest into the subsidiary is adjusted to the capital
+reserve (capital surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. If the credit balance of capital reserve (capital surplus) is insufficient, any excess
+is adjusted to retained profits.

+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(1) Accounting treatment of business combination involving entities under common control and not under common control (Continued)
+(c) Method for preparation of consolidated financial statements (Continued)
+In a business combination involving entities not under common control achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity
+interest in the acquiree on the acquisition date. The difference between the fair value and the net book value is recognised as investment
+income for the year. If other comprehensive income was recognised regarding the equity interest previously held in the acquiree before the
+acquisition date, the relevant other comprehensive income is transferred to investment income in the period in which the acquisition occurs.
+Where control of a subsidiary is lost due to partial disposal of the equity investment held in a subsidiary, or any other reasons, the Group
+derecognises assets, liabilities, minority interests and other equity items related to the subsidiary. The remaining equity investment is
+remeasured to fair value at the date in which control is lost. The sum of consideration received from disposal of equity investment and the
+fair value of the remaining equity investment, net of the fair value of the Group's previous share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets
+recorded from the acquisition date, is recognised in investment income in the period in which control is lost. Other comprehensive income
+related to the previous equity investment in the subsidiary, is transferred to investment income when control is lost. Other comprehensive
+income related to the equity investment of the orginal subsidiary shall be converted into the current investment income in the event of loss of
+control.
+Minority interest is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet within shareholders' equity. Net profit or loss attributable to
+minority shareholders is presented separately in the consolidated income statement below the net profit line item.
+(5) Long-term equity investments
+A business combination involving entities or businesses not under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are not ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination. Difference
+between the consideration paid by the Group as the acquirer, comprises of the aggregate of the fair value at the acquisition date of assets
+given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued by the acquirer in exchange for control of the acquiree, and the Group's
+interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, is recognised as goodwill (Note 3(9)) if it is an excess, otherwise in the
+profit or loss. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt securities issued as the consideration of the combination is recognised
+in the initial cost of the securities. Any other expense directly attributable to the business combination is recognised in the profit or loss
+for the year. The difference between the fair value and the book value of the assets given is recognised in profit or loss. The acquiree's
+identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, if satisfying the recognition criteria, are recognised by the Group at their fair value at
+the acquisition date. The acquisition date is the date on which the acquirer effectively obtains control of the acquiree.
+(a) Investment in subsidiaries
+The initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination involving entities under common
+control is the Company's share of the carrying amount of the subsidiary's equity at the combination date. The difference between the initial
+investment cost and the carrying amounts of the consideration given is adjusted to share premium in capital reserve. If the balance of the
+share premium is insufficient, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings.
+(c) The impairment assessment method and provision accrual on investment
+The impairment assessment and provision accrual on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are stated in Note 3(11).

+Annual Report 2017 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+The Group discontinues recognising its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment and
+any long-term interest that is in substance forms part of the Group's net investment in the associate or the joint ventures is reduced to
+zero, except to the extent that the Group has an obligation to assume additional losses. However, if the Group has incurred obligations for
+additional losses and the conditions on recognition of provision are satisfied in accordance with the accounting standard on contingencies,
+the Group continues recognising the investment losses and the provision. Where net profits are subsequently made by the associate or joint
+venture, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised.
+The Group adjusts the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment for changes in owners' equity of the investee other than those
+arising from net profits or losses and other comprehensive income, and recognises the corresponding adjustment in capital reserve.
+for the year ended 31 December 2017
+(6) Fixed assets and construction in progress
+Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Group using in the production of goods, rendering of services and for operation and
+administrative purposes with useful life over one year.
+Fixed assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Note 3(11)). Construction in
+progress is stated in the balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(11)).
+The cost of a purchased fixed asset comprises the purchase price, related taxes, and any directly attributable expenditure for bringing the asset
+to working condition for its intended use. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour, capitalised borrowing
+costs (see Note 3(18)), and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use. According to legal
+or contractual obligations, costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which the related assets located are included in
+the initial cost.
+Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when the asset is ready for its intended use. No depreciation is provided against
+construction in progress.
+Where the individual component parts of an item of fixed asset have different useful lives or provide benefits to the Group in different patterns
+thus necessitating use of different depreciation rates or methods, each part is recognised as a separate fixed asset.
+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+The Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses after making appropriate adjustments to align the accounting policies
+or accounting periods with those of the Group based on the fair values of the investee's net identifiable assets at the time of acquisition.
+Under the equity accounting method, unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its associates or joint
+ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associates or joint ventures. Unrealised losses resulting from transactions
+between the Group and its associates or joint ventures are fully recognised in the event that there is an evidence of impairment.
+Where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable
+net assets at the date of acquisition, the investment is initially recognised at the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost is
+less than the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition, the investment is initially
+recognised at the investor's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets, and the difference is charged to profit or loss.
+After the acquisition of the investment, the Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses and other comprehensive income
+as investment income or losses and other comprehensive income, and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment accordingly. Once the
+investee declares any cash dividends or profits distributions, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced by that attributable to the
+Group.
+The Group's accounting treatments when adopting the equity method include:
+For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the initial
+investment cost comprises the aggregate of the fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued
+by the Company, in exchange for control of the acquiree. For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not
+involving enterprises under common control, if it is achieved in stages, the initial cost comprises the carrying value of previously-held equity
+investment in the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date, and the additional investment cost at the acquisition date.
+An investment in a subsidiary acquired otherwise than through a business combination is initially recognised at actual purchase cost if the
+Group acquires the investment by cash, or at the fair value of the equity securities issued if an investment is acquired by issuing equity
+securities, or at the value stipulated in the investment contract or agreement if an investment is contributed by investors.

+(b) Investment in joint ventures and associates
+A joint venture is an incorporated entity over which the Group, based on legal form, contractual terms and other facts and circumstances,
+has joint control with the other parties to the joint venture and rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually
+agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of
+the Group and the parties sharing control.
+An associate is the investee that the Group has significant influence on their financial and operating policies. Significant influence represents
+the right to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over the establishment
+of these policies. The Group generally considers the following circumstances in determining whether it can exercise significant influence
+over the investee: whether there is representative appointed to the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the investee; whether
+to participate in the investee's policy-making process; whether there are significant transactions with the investees; whether there is
+management personnel sent to the investee; whether to provide critical technical information to the investee.
+An investment in a joint ventures or an associate is accounted for using the equity method, unless the investment is classified as held for
+sale.
+The initial cost of investment in joint ventures and associates is stated at the consideration paid except for cash dividends or profits
+distributions declared but unpaid at the time of acquisition and therefore included in the consideration paid should be deducted if the
+investment is made in cash. Under the circumstances that the long-term investment is obtained through non-monetary asset exchange, the
+initial cost of the investment is stated at the fair value of the assets exchanged if the transaction has commercial substance, the difference
+between the fair value of the assets exchanged and its carrying amount is charged to profit or loss; or stated at the carrying amount of the
+assets exchanged if the transaction lacks commercial substance.
+In the Company's separate financial statements, long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method.
+Except for cash dividends or profits distributions declared but not yet distributed that have been included in the price or consideration paid
+in obtaining the investments, the Company recognises its share of the cash dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee as
+investment income irrespective of whether these represent the net profit realised by the investee before or after the investment. Investments
+in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(11)) in the balance sheet. At initial recognition, such investments are
+measured as follows:

+(a) Revenues from sales of goods
+Revenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits arising in the course of the Group's normal activities when the inflows result in increase in
+shareholder's equity, other than increase relating to contributions from shareholders. Revenue is recognised in profit or loss when it is probable
+that the economic benefits will flow to the Group, the revenue and costs can be measured reliably and the following respective conditions are
+met.
+(16) Revenue recognition
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+costs, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision of oil and gas properties.
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a contingent event, it is probable that an outflow of economic
+benefits will be required to settle the obligations and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the effect of time value of money is material,
+provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.

+the taxable entity has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and current tax liabilities; and
+At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if all the following conditions are met:
+The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date. If it is unlikely to obtain sufficient taxable income to offset
+against the benefit of deferred tax asset, the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets is written down. Any such write-down should be
+subsequently reversed where it becomes probable that sufficient taxable income will be available.
+At the balance sheet date, the amounts of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of recovery or settlement of the

+Temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Unused tax losses and unused
+tax credits able to be utilised in subsequent years are treated as temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it
+is probable that future taxable income will be available to offset the deductible temporary differences.
+At the balance sheet date, current tax assets and liabilities are offset if the Group has a legally enforceable right to set them off and also intends
+either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
+Current tax is the expected tax payable calculated at the applicable tax rate on taxable income for the year, plus any adjustment to tax payable
+in respect of previous years.
+If the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. The
+amount by which the carrying amount is reduced is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. A provision for impairment loss of
+the asset is recognised accordingly. Impairment losses related to an asset unit or a set of asset units first reduce the carrying amount of any
+goodwill allocated to the asset unit or set of asset units, and then reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the asset unit or set of
+asset units on a pro rata basis. However, the carrying amount of an impaired asset will not be reduced below the highest of its individual fair
+value less costs to sell (if determinable), the present value of expected future cash flows (if determinable) and zero.
+Fair value less costs to sell of an asset is based on its selling price in an arm's length transaction less any direct costs attributable to
+the disposal. Present value of expected future cash flows is the estimation of future cash flows to be generated from the use of and upon
+disposal of the asset, discounted at an appropriate pre-tax discount rate over the asset's remaining useful life.
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash flows generated by the
+asset (or asset unit, set of asset units).
+An asset unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets
+or groups of assets. An asset unit comprises related assets that generate associated cash inflows. In identifying an asset unit, the Group
+primarily considers whether the asset unit is able to generate cash inflows independently as well as the management style of production and
+operational activities, and the decision for the use or disposal of asset.
+Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
+The recoverable amounts of goodwill and intangible assets with uncertain useful lives are estimated annually no matter there are any
+indications of impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment together with related asset units or groups of asset units.
+Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date for indications that the following assets, including fixed
+assets, construction in progress, goodwill, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures may be impaired.

+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+100 Annual Report 2017 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+Impairment loss of available-for-sale debt instrument is reversed, if the reason for the subsequent increase in fair value is objectively as
+a result of an event occurred after the recognition of the impairment loss. Impairment loss for available-for-sale equity instrument is not
+reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss for available-for-sale financial assets measured by the cost cannot be reversed in the
+following period.
+When available-for-sale financial assets measured at cost are impaired, the differences between the book value and the discounted present
+value with the market return of similar financial assets are charged to profit or loss.
+When available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value are impaired, despite not being derecognised, the cumulative losses
+resulted from the decrease in fair value which had previously been recognised directly in shareholders' equity, are reversed and charged
+to profit or loss.
+Available-for-sale financial assets are assessed for impairment on an individual basis. Objective evidence of impairment for equity
+instruments classified as available-for-sale includes information about significant but not temporary decline in the fair value of the equity
+investment instrument below its cost. The Group assesses equity instruments classified as available-for-sale separately at the end of
+each reporting period, it will be considered as impaired if the fair value of the equity instrument at reporting date is less than its initial
+investment cost over 50% (including 50%) or the duration of the fair value below its initial investment cost is more than one (including
+one) year, if the fair value of the equity instrument at reporting date is less than its initial investment cost over 20% (including 20%) but
+below 50%, other related factors such as price volatility will be taken into consideration to assess if it is impaired.
+Available-for-sale financial assets
+Where impairment is assessed on an individual basis, an impairment loss in respect of a receivable or held-to-maturity investment is
+calculated as the excess of its carrying amount over the present value of the estimated future cash flows (exclusive of future credit losses
+that have not been incurred) discounted at the original effective interest rate. All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.
+Impairment loss on receivables and held-to-maturity investments is reversed in profit or loss if evidence suggests that the financial assets'
+carrying amounts have increased and the reason for the increase is objectively as a result of an event occurred after the recognition of the
+impairment loss. The reversed carrying amount shall not exceed the amortised cost if the financial assets had no impairment recognised.
+Receivables are assessed for impairment on the combination of an individual basis and the aging analysis.
+Held-to-maturity investments are assessed for impairment on an individual basis.
+Impairment losses for assets are not reversed.
+(23) Dividends
+(12) Long-term deferred expenses

+When the Group terminates the employment relationship with employees before the employment contracts expire, or provides compensation
+as an offer to encourage employees to accept voluntary redundancy, a provision for the termination benefits provided is recognised in profit
+or loss under the conditions of both the Group has a formal plan for the termination of employment or has made an offer to employees for
+voluntary redundancy, which will be implemented shortly; and the Group is not allowed to withdraw from termination plan or redundancy
+offer unilaterally.
+(c) Termination benefits
+Employees of the Group participate in the social insurance system established and managed by local labor and social security department.
+The Group makes basic pension insurance to the local social insurance agencies every month, at the applicable benchmarks and rates
+stipulated by the government for the benefits of its employees. After the employees retire, the local labor and social security department has
+obligations to pay them the basic pension. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group
+shall recognise the accrued amount according to the above social security provisions as a liability and charge to the cost of an asset or to
+profit or loss in the same period.
+Basic pension insurance
+The Group classifies post-employment benefits into either Defined Contribution Plan (DC plan) or Defined Benefit Plan (DB plan). DC plan
+means the Group only contributes a fixed amount to an independent fund and no longer bears other payment obligation; DB plan is post-
+employment benefits other than DC plan. In this reporting period, the post-employment benefits of the Group primarily comprise basic
+pension insurance and unemployment insurance and both of them are DC plans.
+(b) Post-employment benefits
+Short term compensation includes salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, employee benefits, medical insurance premiums, work-
+related injury insurance premium, maternity insurance premium, contributions to housing fund, unions and education fund and short-term
+absence with payment etc. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group shall recognise the
+short term compensation actually incurred as a liability and charge to the cost of an asset or to profit or loss in the same period, and non-
+monetary benefits are valued with the fair value.
+(a) Short term compensation
+Employee benefits are all forms of considerations and compensation given in exchange for services rendered by employees, including short term
+compensation, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long term employee benefits.
+Long-term deferred expenses are amortised on a straight-line basis over their beneficial periods.

+Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchase over the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities. The recoverable amounts of the
+above cash generating units are determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial
+budgets approved by management covering a one-year period and pre-tax discount rates primarily ranging from 10.8% to 11.4% (2016: 10.4% to
+11.0%). Cash flows beyond the one-year period are maintained constant. Based on the estimated recoverable amount, no major impairment loss
+was recognised.
+Key assumptions used for cash flow forecasts for these entities are the gross margin and sales volume. Management determined the budgeted gross
+margin based on the gross margin achieved in the period immediately before the budget period and management's expectation on the future trend
+of the prices of crude oil and petrochemical products. The sales volume was based on the production capacity and/or the sales volume in the period
+immediately before the budget period.
+18 LONG-TERM DEFERRED EXPENSES
+Long-term deferred expenses primarily represent prepaid rental expenses over one year and catalysts expenditures.

+At 31 December 2017, certain subsidiaries of the Company did not recognise deferred tax of deductible loss carried forward of RMB 20,821 million
+(2016: RMB 19,194 million), of which RMB 5,938 million (2016: RMB 3,833 million) was incurred for the year ended 31 December 2017, because
+it was not probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. These deductible losses carried forward of RMB 2,508 million, RMB 4,462 million,
+RMB 4,080 million, RMB 3,833 million and RMB 5,938 million will expire in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and after, respectively.
+Periodically, management performed assessment on the probability that future taxable profit will be available over the period which the deferred tax
+assets can be realised or utilised. In assessing the probability, both positive and negative evidence was considered, including whether it is probable
+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the
+tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur. During the year ended 31 December 2017, write-down of deferred tax assets
+amounted to RMB 26 million (2016: RMB 811 million) (Note 50).

+14 FIXED ASSETS (Continued)
+The additions to oil and gas properties of the Group and the Company for the year ended 31 December 2017 included RMB 1,627 million (2016:
+RMB 3,420 million) (Note 32) and RMB 982 million (2016: RMB 2,939 million), respectively of the estimated dismantlement costs for site
+restoration.
+Impairment losses on fixed assets for the year ended 31 December 2017 primarily represent impairment losses recognised in the exploration and
+production ("E&P") segment of RMB 12,611 million (2016: RMB 10,594 million) on fixed assets, for the chemicals segment of RMB 4,779 million
+(2016: RMB 2,840 million) of fixed assets and for the refining segment of RMB 1,836 million (2016: RMB 1,245 million) of fixed assets. The primary
+factors resulting in the E&P segment impairment loss were downward revision of oil and gas reserve due to price change and high operating and
+development cost for certain oil fields. The carrying values of these E&P properties were written down to recoverable amounts which were determined
+based on the present values of the expected future cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.47% (2016: 10.47%). Further future
+downward revisions to the Group's oil price outlook would lead to further impairments which, in aggregate, are likely to be material. It is estimated
+that a general decrease of 5% in oil price, with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss in Group's fixed assets
+relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB 3,145 million. It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in operating cost,
+with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment in Group's fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities by
+approximately RMB 2,659 million. It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in discount rate, with all other variables held constant, would result
+in additional impairment loss in Group's fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB 461 million. The assets in
+the refining segment were written down due to the suspension of operations of certain production facilities, while the assets in the chemical segment
+were written down because of evidence indicates the economic performance of certain production facilities are worse than expected and due to the
+suspension of operations of certain production facilities.
+At 31 December 2017 and 2016, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fixed assets which were pledged.
+At 31 December 2017 and 2016, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fixed assets which were temporarily idle or pending for
+disposal.
+At 31 December 2017 and 2016, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fully depreciated fixed assets which were still in use.

+which is calculated by dividing long-term loans (excluding current portion) and debentures payable, by the total of equity attributable to owners of
+the Company and long-term loans (excluding current portion) and debentures payable, and liability-to-asset ratio, which is calculated by dividing
+total liabilities by total assets. Management's strategy is to make appropriate adjustments according to the Group's operating and investment needs
+and the changes of market conditions, and to maintain the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group at a range considered
+reasonable. As at 31 December 2017, the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group were 12.0% (2016: 14.2%) and 46.5%

+Note: The long-term borrowings mainly include an interest-free loan with a maturity period of 20 years amounting to RMB 35,560 million from the Sinopec Group
+Company through the Sinopec Finance. This borrowing is a special arrangement to reduce financing costs and improve liquidity of the Company during its initial
+global offering in 2000.
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered "impaired", and
+an impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with "ASBE 8 - Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are
+reviewed periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for
+impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a
+decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. The
+recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash flows. It is difficult to precisely
+estimate the fair value because quoted market prices for the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining
+the value of expected future cash flows, expected cash flows generated by the asset or the cash-generating unit are discounted to their present
+value, which requires significant judgement relating to sales volume, selling price, amount of operating costs and discount rate. The Group uses
+all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based
+on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sales volume, selling price, amount of operating costs and discount rate.
+(b) Impairment for assets
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment
+expense and future dismantlement costs. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based
+on volumes produced and reserves.
+Future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties are estimated with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration
+the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with industry practices in the similar geographic area, including estimation
+of economic life of oil and gas properties, technology and price level. The present values of these estimated future dismantlement costs are
+capitalised as oil and gas properties with equivalent amounts recognised as provisions for dismantlement costs.
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have
+to be met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as "proved". Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated
+at least annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels
+change from year to year, the estimate of proved and proved developed reserves also changes. This change is considered a change in estimate
+for accounting purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in related depreciation rates. Oil and gas reserves have a direct impact on
+the assessment of the recoverability of the carrying amounts of oil and gas properties reported in the financial statements. If proved reserves
+estimates are revised downwards, earnings could be affected by changes in depreciation expense or an immediate write-down of the property's
+carrying amount.
+The accounting for the exploration and production segment's oil and gas activities is subject to accounting rules that are unique to the oil and
+gas industry. The Group has used the successful efforts method to account for oil and gas business activities. The successful efforts method
+reflects the volatility that is inherent in exploring for mineral resources in that costs of unsuccessful exploratory efforts are charged to expense.
+These costs primarily include dry hole costs, seismic costs and other exploratory costs.
+(a) Oil and gas properties and reserves
+The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of
+reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the financial statements. The significant
+accounting policies are set forth in Note 3. The Group believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgements and
+estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.
+The Group's financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the
+preparation of the financial statements. The Group bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions
+that it believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources.
+On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts, circumstances and conditions
+change.

+Legal contingencies
+The Group paid normal routine pollutant discharge fees of approximately RMB 7,851 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 (2016: RMB 6,358
+million).
+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect the Group's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature and
+extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development areas,
+whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv) changes.
+in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is indeterminable
+due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be
+required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot reasonably be estimated at
+present, and could be material.
+Environmental contingencies
+The Group monitors the conditions that are subject to the guarantees to identify whether it is probable that a loss will occur, and recognises any
+such losses under guarantees when those losses are reliably estimable. At 31 December 2017 and 2016, it was not probable that the Group will
+be required to make payments under the guarantees. Thus no liabilities have been accrued for a loss related to the Group's obligation under these
+guarantee arrangements.
+(i) The group provided a guarantee in respect to standby credit facilities granted to Zhongtian Synergetic Energy by banks amount to RMB
+17,050 million. As at 31 December 2017, the amount withdrawn by Zhongtian Synergetic Energy from banks and guaranteed by the group
+was RMB 13,520 million.

+(a) The Company has been advised by its PRC lawyers that, except for liabilities constituting or arising out of or relating to the business assumed
+by the Company in the Reorganisation, no other liabilities were assumed by the Company, and the Company is not jointly and severally liable for
+other debts and obligations incurred by Sinopec Group Company prior to the Reorganisation.
+The Group is a defendant in certain lawsuits as well as the named party in other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.
+Management has assessed the likelihood of an unfavourable outcome of such contingencies, lawsuits or other proceedings and believes that any
+resulting liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, operating results or cash flows of the Group.

+The segments were determined primarily because the Group manages its exploration and production, refining, marketing and distribution,
+chemicals, and corporate and others businesses separately. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and/
+or distribute distinct products with different production processes and due to their distinct operating and gross margin characteristics.
+(v) Corporate and others - which largely comprise the trading activities of the import and export companies of the Group and research and
+development undertaken by other subsidiaries.
+(iv) Chemicals which manufactures and sells petrochemical products, derivative petrochemical products and other chemical products to external
+customers.
+(iii) Marketing and distribution which owns and operates oil depots and service stations in the PRC, and distributes and sells refined petroleum
+products (mainly gasoline and diesel) in the PRC through wholesale and retail sales networks.
+(ii) Refining ― which processes and purifies crude oil, which is sourced from the exploration and production segment of the Group and external
+suppliers, and manufactures and sells petroleum products to the chemicals and marketing and distribution segments of the Group and external
+customers.
+(i) Exploration and production ― which explores and develops oil fields, produces crude oil and natural gas and sells such products to the refining
+segment of the Group and external customers.
+Segment information is presented in respect of the Group's operating segments. The format is based on the Group's management and internal
+reporting structure.

+Management believes that the Group's current cash on hand, expected cash flows from operations and available standby credit facilities from
+financial institutions will be sufficient to meet the Group's short-term and long-term capital requirements.
+Market risk
+Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The objective of market risk management is
+to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return on risk.
+(a) Currency risk
+Currency risk arises on financial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in which they are measured.
+The Group's currency risk exposure primarily relates to short-term and long-term debts denominated in US Dollars and the Group enters into
+foreign exchange contracts to manage currency risk exposure.
+Included in short-term and long-term debts are the following amounts denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity
+to which they relate:
+The Group
+Gross exposure arising from loans and borrowings

+Within
+Total

+17,243
+Liquidity risk
+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group encounters short fall of capital when meeting its obligation of financial liabilities. The Group's approach to
+managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal
+and stressed capital conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. The Group prepares monthly
+cash flow budget to ensure that they will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligation as they fall due. The Group arranges and
+negotiates financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the liquidity risk.
+At 31 December 2017, the Group has standby credit facilities with several PRC financial institutions which provide the Group to borrow up to RMB
+361,852 million (2016: RMB 256,375 million) on an unsecured basis, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.40% (2016: 3.57%). At 31 December
+2017, the Group's outstanding borrowings under these facilities were RMB 56,567 million (2016: RMB 36,933 million) and were included in loans.

+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations,
+and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions (including structured deposit) and receivables from customers.
+To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial institution in the PRC with
+acceptable credit ratings. The majority of the Group's accounts receivable relates to sales of petroleum and chemical products to related parties
+and third parties operating in the petroleum and chemical industries. No single customer accounted for greater than 10% of total accounts
+receivable at 31 December 2017, except for the amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries. The Group performs ongoing
+credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral on accounts receivable. The Group maintains an
+impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within management's expectations.
+The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, and set appropriate risk limits and
+controls to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
+conditions and the Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and
+constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. Internal audit department undertakes both regular
+and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Group's audit committee.

+At 31 December 2017, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in variable interest rates, with all other variables held

+change was applied to the Group's loans outstanding at that date with exposure to cash flow interest rate risk. The analysis is performed on the

+Except for the above items, the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair values

+Other unquoted equity investments are individually and in the aggregate not material to the Group's financial position or results of operations.
+There are no listed market prices for such interests in the PRC and, accordingly, a reasonable estimate of fair value could not be made without
+incurring excessive costs. The Group intends to hold these unquoted equity investments for long term purpose.
+The Group has not developed an internal valuation model necessary to make the estimate of the fair value of loans from Sinopec Group Company
+and fellow subsidiaries as it is not considered practicable to estimate their fair value because the cost of obtaining discount and borrowing rates
+for comparable borrowings would be excessive based on the Reorganisation of the Group, its existing capital structure and the terms of the

+At 31 December 2017, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of USD 10 per barrel in basic price of derivative financial instruments,
+with all other variables held constant, would impact the fair value of derivative financial instruments which would decrease/increase the Group's
+profit for the year by approximately RMB 4,049 million (2016: decrease/increase RMB 634 million), and decrease/increase the Group's other
+comprehensive income by approximately RMB 701 million (2016: decrease/increase RMB 4,007 million). This sensitivity analysis has been
+determined assuming that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the change was applied to the Group's derivative
+financial instruments at that date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016.
+At 31 December 2017, the Group had certain commodity contracts of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products designated as
+qualified cash flow hedges and economic hedges. At 31 December 2017, the net fair value of such derivative hedging financial instruments is
+derivative financial assets of RMB 515 million (2016: RMB 312 million) recognised in other receivables and derivative financial liabilities of RMB
+2,624 million (2016: RMB 4,336 million) recognised in other payables.
+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products
+and chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the
+Group. The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps, to manage a portion of such risk.

+REPORT OF THE INTERNATIONAL AUDITOR (CONTINUED)
+AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement,
+whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. We report our opinion solely to you, as a body, and for no
+other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report. Reasonable assurance is
+a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAS will always detect a material misstatement when it
+exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected
+to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
+As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
+•
+•
+The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance
+with IFRSS and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the directors determine is
+necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
+Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform
+audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk
+of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
+intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
+Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the
+directors.
+Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained,
+whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going
+concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the
+consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence
+obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
+Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the
+consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
+Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an
+opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain
+solely responsible for our audit opinion.
+We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit
+findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
+We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence,
+and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
+related safeguards.
+From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the
+consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report
+unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not
+be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of
+such communication.

+RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
+whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise
+appears to be materially misstated.
+REPORT OF THE INTERNATIONAL AUDITOR (CONTINUED)
+The key audit matter identified in our audit is "Recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment related to oil and gas producing
+activities".
+Key Audit Matter
+Recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment
+related to oil and gas producing activities
+Refer to note 8 "OTHER OPERATING (EXPENSE)/INCOME, NET", note
+16 “PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT", and note 41 "ACCOUNTING
+ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS" to the consolidated financial
+statements.
+Low crude oil prices gave rise to possible indication that the carrying
+amount of property, plant and equipment related to oil and gas
+producing activities as at 31 December 2017 might be impaired. The
+Group has adopted values in use as the respective recoverable amounts
+of property, plant and equipment related to oil and gas producing
+activities, which involved key estimations or assumptions including:
+Future crude oil prices;
+Future production profiles;
+Future cost profiles; and
+Discount rates.
+Because of the significance of the carrying amount of property, plant
+and equipment related to oil and gas producing activities as at 31
+December 2017, together with the use of significant estimations or
+assumptions in determining their respective values in use, we had
+placed our audit emphasis on this matter.
+How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
+If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that
+fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
+In auditing the respective values in use calculations of property, plant and
+equipment related to oil and gas producing activities, we have performed
+the following key procedures on the relevant discounted cash flow

+(c) As at 31 December 2017, the amount of retained earnings available for distribution was RMB 177,049 million (2016: RMB 182,440 million), being the amount
+determined in accordance with ASBE. According to the Articles of Association of the Company, the amount of retained earnings available for distribution to shareholders
+of the Company is lower of the amount determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE and the amount determined in accordance with the
+accounting policies complying with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS”).
+(b) The usage of the discretionary surplus reserve is similar to that of statutory surplus reserve.
+During the year ended 31 December 2017, the Company transferred RMB 3,042 million (2016: nil) to the statutory surplus reserve, being 10% of the current year's net
+profit determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE to this reserve.
+(a) According to the PRC Company Law and the Articles of Association of the Company, the Company is required to transfer 10% of its net profit determined in accordance
+with the accounting policies complying with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("ASBE"), adopted by the Group to statutory surplus reserve. In the event
+that the reserve balance reaches 50% of the registered capital, no transfer is required. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of a dividend to
+shareholders. Statutory surplus reserve can be used to make good previous years' losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing of new shares to
+shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the balance after such issue is
+not less than 25% of the registered capital.

+entities and related operations acquired from or sold to Sinopec Group Company and non-controlling interests.

+("E&P") segment of RMB 13,556 million (2016: RMB 11,605 million), the chemicals segment of RMB 4,922 million (2016: RMB 2,898 million) and for the refining
+segment of RMB 1,894 million (2016: RMB 1,655 million) (Note 38), most of which are impairment losses on property, plant and equipment (Note 16). The primary
+factors resulting in the E&P segment impairment loss were downward revision of oil and gas reserve due to price change and high operating and development cost
+for certain oil fields. The carrying values of these E&P properties were written down to recoverable amounts which were determined based on the present values of
+the expected future cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.47% (2016: 10.47%). Further future downward revisions to the Group's oil price outlook
+would lead to further impairments which, in aggregate, are likely to be material. It is estimated that a general decrease of 5% in oil price, with all other variables held
+constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB
+3,145 million. It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in operating cost, with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the
+Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB 2,659 million. It is estimated that a general increase of
+5% in discount rate, with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil
+and gas producing activities by approximately RMB 461 million. The assets in the refining segment were written down due to the suspension of operations of certain
+production facilities, while the assets in the chemical segment were written down because of evidence indicates the economic performance of certain production
+facilities are worse than expected and due to the suspension of operations of certain production facilities.

+An item of property, plant and equipment is initially recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (Note 2(o)). The cost
+of an asset comprises its purchase price, any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition and location for its intended
+use. The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when
+that cost is incurred, when it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the
+item can be measured reliably. All other expenditure is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement in the year in which it is
+incurred.

+Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of purchase computed using the weighted average
+method and, in the case of work in progress and finished goods, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of production overheads. Net
+realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs
+necessary to make the sale.
+(e) Inventories
+Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are
+determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised as income or expense
+in the consolidated income statement on the date of retirement or disposal.
+Trade, bills and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method,
+less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts (Note 2(o)). Trade, bills and other receivables are derecognised if the Group's contractual
+rights to the cash flows from these financial assets expire or if the Group transfers these financial assets to another party without retaining
+control or substantially all risks and rewards of the assets.
+Cash equivalents consist of time deposits with financial institutions with an initial term of less than three months when purchased. Cash
+equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
+(c) Cash and cash equivalents
+On disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation is reclassified from
+equity to the consolidated income statement when the profit or loss on disposal is recognised.
+The results of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the applicable rates quoted by the PBOC prevailing on the transaction dates.
+Balance sheet items, including goodwill arising on consolidation of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the closing foreign
+exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The income and expenses of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates
+or an exchange rate that approximents the spot exchange rates on the transaction dates. The resulting exchange differences are recognised in
+other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity in the other reserves.
+Exchange differences, other than those capitalised as construction in progress, are recognised as income or expense in the "finance costs"
+section of the consolidated income statement.
+The presentation currency of the Group is Renminbi. Foreign currency transactions during the year are translated into Renminbi at the applicable
+rates of exchange quoted by the People's Bank of China ("PBOC") prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency monetary assets and
+liabilities are translated into Renminbi at the PBOC's rates at the balance sheet date.
+(b) Translation of foreign currencies
+A uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by those entities. All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions
+between combining entities or businesses are eliminated on consolidation. Transaction costs, including professional fees, registration fees,
+costs of furnishing information to shareholders, costs or losses incurred in combining operations of the previously separate businesses, etc.,
+incurred in relation to the common control combination that is to be accounted for by using merger accounting is recognised as an expense
+in the period in which it is incurred.
+The consolidated income statement includes the results of each of the combining entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or
+since the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the common control, where there is a shorter period, regardless
+of the date of the common control combination. The comparative amounts in the consolidated financial statements are presented as if the
+entities or businesses had been combined at the previous balance sheet date or when they first came under common control, whichever is
+shorter.
+(d) Trade, bills and other receivables
+The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the combining entities or businesses in which the common
+control combination occurs as if they had been combined from the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the
+control of the controlling party. The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the existing book values from the
+controlling parties' perspective. No amount is recognised as consideration for goodwill or excess of acquirers' interest in the net fair value of
+acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of common control combination, to the extent of the
+continuation of the controlling party's interest.

+Construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when the asset is substantially ready for its intended use.
+No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress.
+Construction in progress represents buildings, oil and gas properties, various plant and equipment under construction and pending installation,
+and is stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(o)). Cost comprises direct costs of construction as well as interest charges, and foreign
+exchange differences on related borrowed funds to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest charges, during the periods of
+construction.
+(i) Construction in progress
+Estimated
+Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the relevant government authorities. Land use rights are carried at cost less accumulated
+amount charged to expense and impairment losses (Note 2(o)). The cost of lease prepayments is charged to expense on a straight-line basis
+over the respective periods of the rights.
+Management estimates future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties with reference to engineering estimates after taking into
+consideration the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with the industry practices and the future cash flows are adjusted
+to reflect such risks specific to the liability, as appropriate. These estimated future dismantlement costs are discounted at pre-tax risk-free rate
+and are capitalised as oil and gas properties, which are subsequently amortised as part of the costs of the oil and gas properties.
+The Group uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas producing activities. Under this method, costs of development
+wells, the related supporting equipment and proved mineral interests in properties are capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially
+capitalised as construction in progress pending determination of whether the well has found proved reserves. The impairment of exploratory well
+costs occurs upon the determination that the well has not found proved reserves. The exploratory well costs are usually not carried as an asset
+for more than one year following completion of drilling, unless (i) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as
+a producing well if the required capital expenditure is made; (ii) drilling of the additional exploratory wells is under way or firmly planned for the
+near future; or (iii) other activities are being undertaken to sufficiently progress the assessing of the reserves and the economic and operating
+viability of the project. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, other dry hole costs and annual lease rentals,
+are expensed as incurred. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based on volumes
+produced and reserves.
+(g) Oil and gas properties
+Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis

+Key assumptions and estimation made by management in the application of IFRS that have significant effect on the consolidated financial
+statements and the major sources of estimation uncertainty are disclosed in Note 41.
+The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in
+which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both
+current and future periods.
+The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and
+assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
+liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The
+estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under
+the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
+readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
+(a) Basis of consolidation
+The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except for the remeasurement of available-for-sale
+securities (Note 2(k)), securities held for trading (Note 2(k)) and derivative financial instruments (Note 2(1) and (n)) to their fair values.
+IFRS 16, 'Leases', provides updated guidance on the definition of leases, and the guidance on the combination and separation of contracts.
+Under IFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time
+in exchange for consideration. IFRS 16 requires lessees to recognise lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a ‘right-of-use-asset'
+for almost all lease contracts, with an exemption for certain short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The lessors accounting stays
+almost the same as under IAS 17 'Leases'. IFRS 16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on 1 January 2019. Earlier application is
+permitted if IFRS 15 is also applied.
+IFRS 15, 'Revenue from contracts with customers', establishes a comprehensive framework for determining when to recognise revenue and
+how much revenue to recognise through a 5-step approach. IFRS 15 provides specific guidance on capitalisation of contract cost and licence
+arrangements. It also includes a cohesive set of disclosure requirements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash
+flows arising from the entity's contracts with customers. The core principle is that a company should recognise revenue to depict the transfer
+of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in
+exchange for those goods or services. IFRS 15 replaces the previous revenue standards: IAS 18 'Revenue' and IAS 11 'Construction Contracts'
+and the related Interpretations on revenue recognition: IFRIC 13 'Customer Loyalty Programmes', IFRIC 15 'Agreements for the Construction of
+Real Estate', IFRIC 18 'Transfers of Assets from Customers' and SIC-31 'Revenue-Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services'. IFRS 15 is
+effective for annual reporting periods beginning on 1 January 2018. Earlier application is permitted.
+IFRS 9, 'Financial instruments', addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The
+complete version of IFRS 9 was issued in July 2014. It replaces the whole of IAS 39. IFRS 9 introduces a new model for the recognition of
+impairment losses - the expected credit losses model, which constitutes a change from the incurred loss model in IAS 39. IFRS 9 applies to all
+hedging relationships, with the exception of portfolio fair value hedges of interest rate risk. The new guidance better aligns hedge accounting
+with the risk management activities of an entity and provides relief from the more “rule-based" approach of IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual
+periods beginning on 1 January 2018. Earlier application is permitted.
+The following relevant IFRS, amendments to existing IFRS and interpretation of IFRS have been published and are mandatory for accounting
+periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 or later periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. Management is in the process of
+making an assessment of what the impact of these amendments, new standards and new interpretations is expected to be in the period of initial
+application and has so far concluded that, except for IFRS 16, the adoption of these amendments, new standards and new interpretations is
+unlikely to have a significant impact on the Group's results of operations and financial position.

+Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 on sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The amendments
+address an inconsistency between IFRS 10 and IAS 28 in the sale and contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint
+venture. A full gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves a business. A partial gain or loss is recognised when a transaction involves
+assets that do not constitute a business, even if those assets are in a subsidiary. The amendments were originally intended to be effective for
+annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. The effective date has now been deferred/removed. Early application of the amendments

+The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries, and interest in associates and joint ventures.
+(i) Subsidiaries and non-controlling interests

+returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

+Inter-company balances and transactions and any unrealised gains arising from inter-company transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
+Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the entity.
+Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
+(iii)Transactions eliminated on consolidation
+When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture, it is accounted for as a disposal of
+the entire interest in that investee, with a resulting gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former investee
+at the date when significant influence or joint control is lost is recognised at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial
+recognition of a financial asset (see Note 2(k)) or, when appropriate, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate (see Note
+2(a) (ii)).
+The Group's share of the post-acquisition, post-tax results of the investees and any impairment losses for the year are recognised in the
+consolidated income statement, whereas the Group's share of the post-acquisition, post-tax items of the investees' other comprehensive
+income is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
+Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for in the consolidated and separate financial statements using the equity method
+from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. Under the
+equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition change in the Group's share of the
+investee's net assets and any impairment loss relating to the investment (Note 2(j) and (o)).
+The investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and
+obligations each investor has rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the
+parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
+An associate is an entity, not being a subsidiary, in which the Group exercises significant influence over its management. Significant influence
+is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
+(ii) Associates and joint ventures
+The particulars of the Group's principal subsidiaries are set out in Note 39.
+In the Company's balance sheet, investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(o)).
+When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, it is accounted for as a disposal of the entire interest in that subsidiary, with a resulting gain
+or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is recognised at fair
+value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset (Note 2(k)) or, when appropriate, the cost on
+initial recognition of an investment in an associate or joint venture (Note 2(a) (ii)).
+If a business combination involving entities not under common control is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the
+acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from
+such remeasurement are recognised in the consolidated income statement.
+Changes in the Group's interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions, whereby
+adjustments are made to the amounts of controlling and non-controlling interests within consolidated equity to reflect the change in relative
+interests, but no adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognised.
+Non-controlling interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that
+are not owned by the Company, whether directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, are presented in the consolidated balance sheet and
+consolidated statement of changes in equity within equity, separately from equity attributable to the shareholders of the Company. Non-
+controlling interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement and the consolidated
+statement of comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year between non-
+controlling interests and the shareholders of the Company.
+The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control effectively
+commences until the date that control effectively ceases.
+(j) Goodwill
+Goodwill represents amounts arising on acquisition of subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures. Goodwill represents the difference between the
+cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.
+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill arising on a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating
+unit, or groups of cash-generating units, that is expected to benefit the synergies of the combination and is tested annually for impairment
+(Note 2(0)). In respect of associates or joint ventures, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the interest in the
+associate or joint venture and the investment as a whole is tested for impairment whenever there is objective evidence of impairment (Note 2(o)).

+Interest income is recognised on a time apportioned basis that takes into account the effective yield on the asset.
+Revenues associated with the sale of crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemical products and ancillary materials are recorded when the
+customer accepts the goods and the significant risks and rewards of ownership and title have been transferred to the buyer. Revenue from the
+rendering of services is recognised in the consolidated income statement upon performance of the services. No revenue is recognised if there are
+significant uncertainties regarding recovery of the consideration due, the possible return of goods, or when the amount of revenue and the costs
+incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction cannot be measured reliably.
+(s) Revenue recognition
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+cost, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision and oil and gas properties.
+A provision is recognised for liability of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a
+past event, when it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made.
+When it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is
+disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only

+Prior to 1 January 2008, the acquisition of the non-controlling interests of a consolidated subsidiary was accounted for using the acquisition

+same legal tax unit and jurisdiction to the extent appropriate, and is not available for set off against the taxable profit of another legal tax unit.
+The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable
+that the related tax benefit will be realised.
+Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is calculated on taxable income by applying the applicable tax rates. Deferred tax is
+provided using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
+reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available
+against which the assets can be utilised. Deferred tax is calculated on the basis of the enacted tax rates or substantially enacted tax rates that
+are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. The effect on deferred tax of any changes in tax rates is
+charged or credited to the consolidated income statement, except for the effect of a change in tax rate on the carrying amount of deferred tax
+assets and liabilities which were previously charged or credited to other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
+Sale of materials, service and others
+Rental income
+Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-
+bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the consolidated
+income statement over the period of borrowings using the effective interest method.
+(aa) Dividends
+Trade, bills and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would
+be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+Annual Report 2017 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+164
+Financial Statements (International)
+When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised, or the entity revokes designation of the hedge relationship but the
+hedged forecast transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss at that point remains in equity until the transaction occurs
+and it is recognised in accordance with the above policy. If the hedged transaction is no longer expected to take place, the cumulative
+unrealised gain or loss is reclassified from equity to the consolidated income statement immediately.
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding two policy statements, the associated gain or loss is reclassified from equity
+to the consolidated income statement in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecast transaction affects the consolidated
+income statement.
+If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the associated gain
+or loss is reclassified from equity to the consolidated income statement in the same period or periods during which the asset acquired or
+liability assumed affects the consolidated income statement (such as when interest income or expense is recognised).
+(n) Hedging (Continued)
+If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, the associated gain or loss is reclassified
+from equity to be included in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the non-financial asset.
+(n) Hedging
+Financial assets and liabilities are presented respectively in the consolidated balance sheet, without any offset. However, they are offset and
+reported in the balance sheet when satisfied the following: (i) There is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts. (ii) There
+is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be
+contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of
+the Company or the counterparty.
+(m) Offsetting financial instruments
+Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or loss
+on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in other operating (expense)/income, net, except where the derivatives qualify for cash
+flow hedge accounting or hedge the net investment in a foreign operation, in which case recognition of any resulting gain or loss depends on the
+nature of the item being hedged (Note 2(n)).
+(I) Derivative financial instruments
+Investments in securities held for trading are classified as current assets. Any attributable transaction costs are recognised in the consolidated
+income statement as incurred. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured, with any resultant gain or loss being recognised in the
+consolidated income statement.
+Investments in available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with any change in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income
+and accumulated separately in equity in other reserves. When these investments are derecognised or impaired, the cumulative gain or loss is
+reclassified from equity to the consolidated income statement. Investments in equity securities, other than investments in associates and joint
+ventures, that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are recognised in the
+balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(o)).
+(k) Available-for-sale financial assets
+(q) Interest-bearing borrowings
+(i) Cash flow hedges
+(ii) Fair value hedges
+Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the variability in cash flows of a recognised asset or liability or a highly
+probable forecast transaction or the foreign currency risk of a committed future transaction, the effective portion of any gains or losses on
+remeasurement of the derivative financial instrument to fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately
+in equity in other reserves. The ineffective portion of any gain or loss is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement.
+The gain or loss from remeasuring the hedging instrument at fair value is recognised in the consolidated income statement. The gain or loss
+on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk adjusts the carrying amount of the hedged item and is recognised in the consolidated
+income statement.
+(p) Trade, bills and other payables
+A fair value hedge is a hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm commitment,
+or an identified portion of such an asset, liability or unrecognised firm commitment.

+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2017
+Management assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for a long-lived asset,
+except in the case of goodwill, in prior years may no longer exist. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the
+estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. A subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset, when the circumstances
+and events that led to the write-down or write-off cease to exist, is recognised as an income. The reversal is reduced by the amount that
+would have been recognised as depreciation had the write-down or write-off not occurred. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not
+reversed.
+The amount of the reduction is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect
+of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then, to
+reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced
+below its individual fair value less costs to disposal, or value in use, if determinable.
+Financial Statements (International)
+The carrying amounts of other long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, construction in progress, lease prepayments and
+other assets, are reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify indicators that the assets may be impaired. These assets are tested for
+impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such
+a decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated at each
+balance sheet date.
+(ii) Impairment of other long-lived assets is accounted as follows:
+For investments in associates and joint ventures accounted under the equity method (Note 2(a) (ii)), the impairment loss is measured by
+comparing the recoverable amount of the investment as a whole with its carrying amount in accordance with the accounting policy set out
+in Note 2(o) (ii). The impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable
+amount in accordance with the accounting policy set out in Note 2(o) (ii).
+The impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the estimated future cash flows, discounted at
+the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset where the effect of discounting is material, and is recognised as an expense
+in the consolidated income statement. Impairment losses for trade and other receivables are reversed through the consolidated income
+statement if in a subsequent period the amount of the impairment losses decreases. Impairment losses for equity securities carried at cost
+are not reversed.
+(i) Trade accounts receivable, other receivables and investment in equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market
+are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. If any such evidence exists, an
+impairment loss is determined and recognised.
+(o) Impairment of assets
+The portion of the gain or loss on remeasurement to fair value of an instrument used to hedge a net investment in a foreign operation that is
+determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately in equity in the other reserve
+until the disposal of the foreign operation, at which time the cumulative gain or loss is reclassified from equity to the consolidated income
+statement. The ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the consolidated income statement. In this year no hedge of net investment in
+foreign operations was hold by the Group.
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to disposal and the value in use. In determining the value in use,
+expected future cash flows generated by the asset are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current
+market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely
+independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows
+independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit).
+(iii)Hedge of net investments in foreign operations
+When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the Group
+discontinues prospectively the hedge accounting treatments. If the hedged item is a financial instrument measured at amortised cost, any
+adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item is amortised to profit or loss from the adjustment date to the maturity date using the
+recalculated effective interest rate at the adjustment date.

+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect management's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature
+and extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development
+areas, whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv)
+changes in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is
+indeterminable due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective
+actions that may be required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot
+reasonably be estimated at present, and could be material.
+(ii) The Group provided a guarantee in respect to standby credit facilities granted to Zhongtian Synergetic Energy by banks amount to RMB 17,050 million. As at 31

+which are expensed. Payments incurred were approximately RMB 308 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 (2016: RMB 333 million).
+Exploration licenses for exploration activities are registered with the Ministry of Land and Resources. The maximum term of the Group's exploration
+licenses is 7 years, and may be renewed twice within 30 days prior to expiration of the original term with each renewal being for a two-year term.
+The Group is obligated to make progressive annual exploration investment relating to the exploration blocks in respect of which the license is
+issued. The Ministry of Land and Resources also issues production licenses to the Group on the basis of the reserve reports approved by relevant
+authorities. The maximum term of a full production license is 30 years unless a special dispensation is given by the State Council. The maximum
+term of production licenses issued to the Group is 80 years as a special dispensation was given to the Group by the State Council. The Group's
+production license is renewable upon application by the Group 30 days prior to expiration.

+Note:
+Management monitors the conditions that are subject to the guarantees to identify whether it is probable that a loss will occurr, and recognises any
+such losses under guarantees when those losses are estimable. At 31 December 2017 and 2016, it was not probable that the Group will be required
+to make payments under the guarantees. Thus no liability has been accrued for a loss related to the Group's obligation under these guarantee
+arrangements.

+At the completion date, the non-controlling interests amount to RMB 2,137 million was recognized in relation to SAMC's 45% interest in Gaoqiao
+Branch of the Company.
+As Sinopec Group Company controls both the Group and SAMC, the non-cash transaction described above between Sinopec and SAMC has been
+accounted as business combination under the common control and it has been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements
+as combination of entities under common control in a manner of predecessor value accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Gaoqiao
+Branch of SAMC have been accounted for at historical cost, and the consolidated financial statements of the Group prior to these acquisitions
+have been restated to include the results of operation and the assets and liabilities of Gaoqiao Branch of SAMC on a combined basis.
+Pursuant to the resolution passed at the Directors' meeting on 29 October 2015, the Company entered into the JV Agreement with Sinopec
+Assets Management Corporation ("SAMC") in relation to the formation of the Gaoqiao Petrochemical Co., Ltd. According to the JV Agreement,
+the Company and SAMC jointly set up Gaoqiao Petrochemical Co., Ltd. for RMB 100 million in cash in 2016. Subsequently, the Company
+subscribed capital contribution with the net assets of Gaoqiao Branch of the Company and SAMC subscribed capital contribution with the net
+assets of Gaoqiao Branch of SAMC. The capital contribution was completed on 1 June 2016, after which the Company held 55% of Gaoqiao
+Petrochemical Co., Ltd.'s voting rights and became the parent company of Gaoqiao Petrochemical Co., Ltd.

+If the acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2017, consolidated pro-forma revenue and profit for the year ended 31 December 2017 would
+have been RMB 2,365,632 million and RMB 74,930 million respectively. These amounts have been calculated using the subsidiary's results and

+Date to 31 December 2017.
+As of Acquisition Date, a gain of RMB 3,941 million was recognised as a result of remeasuring the 50% equity interest held before the
+Transaction to its fair value, which is included in other operating (expense)/income in the Group's consolidated income statement for the year

+The schedule of the contractual maturities of loans and commitments are disclosed in Notes 29 and 34, respectively.
+Management optimises the structure of the Group's capital, which comprises of equity and debts. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure
+of the Group, management may cause the Group to issue new shares, adjust the capital expenditure plan, sell assets to reduce debt, or adjust the
+proportion of short-term and long-term loans. Management monitors capital on the basis of the debt-to-capital ratio, which is calculated by dividing
+long-term loans (excluding current portion), including long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, by the total
+of equity attributable to shareholders of the Company and long-term loans (excluding current portion), and liability-to-asset ratio, which is calculated
+by dividing total liabilities by total assets. Management's strategy is to make appropriate adjustments according to the Group's operating and
+investment needs and the changes of market conditions, and to maintain the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group at a
+range considered reasonable. As at 31 December 2017, the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group were 12.0% (2016: 14.2

+At 31 December 2017, certain subsidiaries of the Company did not recognise deferred tax of deductible loss carried forward of RMB 20,821 million
+(2016: RMB 19,194 million), of which RMB 5,938 million (2016: RMB 3,833 million) was incurred for the year ended 31 December 2017, because

+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the

+undertake the following work during the
+year:
+16
+Exploration and Production: We will
+maintain high-efficiency exploration
+and profitable production activities to
+continually increase proved reserve and
+expand resource base. In oil development,
+we will enhance refined reservoir
+characterisation, deepen the structural
+adjustments of mature fields, control
+natural decline rate, lower operational
+cost and improve economic recovery
+rate. In natural gas development, we will
+keep advancing key projects for capacity
+construction, optimise production and
+marketing operations, and promote the
+coordinated development along the value
+chain. In 2018, we plan to produce 290
+million barrels of crude oil, of which
+overseas production will account for 41
+million barrels. We plan to produce 974.1
+billion cubic feet of natural gas.
+Marketing and Distribution: We will
+intensify our marketing strategy of
+balancing profits and volume by
+optimising resources allocation and
+operational efficiency. We will put effort to
+expand markets and our business scale.

+The segments were determined primarily because the Group manages its exploration and production, refining, marketing and distribution,
+chemicals, and corporate and others businesses separately. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and/
+or distribute distinct products with different production processes and due to their distinct operating and gross margin characteristics.

+At 31 December 2017, the Group has standby credit facilities with several PRC financial institutions which provide borrowings up to RMB 361,852
+million (2016: RMB 256,375 million) on an unsecured basis, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.40% per annum (2016: 3.57%). At 31

+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach in managing
+liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed
+conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. Management prepares monthly cash flow budget
+to ensure that the Group will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group arranges and negotiates
+financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the Group's liquidity risk.

+40 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES
+Overview
+Financial assets of the Group include cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, investments, financial assets at fair value
+through profit or loss, trade accounts receivable, bills receivable, amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, amounts due
+from associates and joint ventures, available-for-sale financial assets, derivative financial instruments and other receivables. Financial liabilities of the
+Group include short-term and long-term debts, loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, trade accounts payable, bills payable,
+amounts due to Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, derivative financial instruments and other payables.
+The Group has exposure to the following risks from its uses of financial instruments:
+⚫credit risk;
+liquidity risk;
+7,205
+market risk.
+The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, and set appropriate risk limits and
+controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
+conditions and the Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management controls and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and
+constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. Internal audit department undertakes both regular
+and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Group's audit committee.
+Credit risk
+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations,
+and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions (including structured deposit) and receivables from customers.
+To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial institutions in the PRC with
+acceptable credit ratings. The majority of the Group's trade accounts receivable relate to sales of petroleum and chemical products to related
+parties and third parties operating in the petroleum and chemical industries. No single customer accounted for greater than 10% of total accounts
+receivable at 31 December 2017, except the amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries. Management performs ongoing
+credit evaluations of the Group's customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral on trade accounts receivable. The Group
+maintains an impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within management's expectations.
+The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, trade accounts and bills receivables, derivative financial
+instruments, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and other receivables, represent the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in
+relation to financial assets.

+Table IV: Reserve quantities information

+Beginning of year
+Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable
+certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods,
+and government regulation before contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain,
+regardless of whether the estimate is a deterministic estimate or probabilistic estimate. Due to the inherent uncertainties and the limited nature of
+reservoir data, estimates of underground reserves are subject to change as additional information becomes available.
+Proved developed oil and gas reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and
+operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared with the cost of a new well.
+"Net" reserves exclude royalties and interests owned by others and reflect contractual arrangements and obligation of rental fee in effect at the time of
+the estimate.

+Fair values (Continued)
+(ii) Fair values of financial instruments carried at other than fair value
+The disclosures of the fair value estimates, and their methods and assumptions of the Group's financial instruments, are made to comply
+with the requirements of IFRS 7 and IAS 39 and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements and related
+notes. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Group using market information and valuation methodologies considered
+appropriate. However, considerable judgement is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the
+estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Group could realise in a current market exchange. The use of
+different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
+The fair values of the Group's financial instruments carried at other than fair value (other than long-term indebtedness and investments in
+unquoted equity securities) approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term
+indebtedness are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market interest rates offered to the Group that range from 1.79% to
+4.90% (2016: 1.06% to 4.90%). The following table presents the carrying amount and fair value of the Group's long-term indebtedness other
+than loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries at 31 December 2017 and 2016:
+Carrying amount

+RMB million
+79,738
+78,040
+31 December
+2016
+RMB million
+110,969
+109,308
+The Group has not developed an internal valuation model necessary to estimate the fair values of loans from Sinopec Group Company and
+fellow subsidiaries as it is not considered practicable to estimate their fair values because the cost of obtaining discount and borrowing rates for
+comparable borrowings would be excessive based on the Reorganisation, the Group's existing capital structure and the terms of the borrowings.
+Investments in unquoted equity securities are individually and in the aggregate not material to the Group's financial condition or results of
+operations. There are no listed market prices for such interests in the PRC and, accordingly, a reasonable estimate of fair value could not be
+made without incurring excessive costs. The Group intends to hold these unquoted other investments in equity securities for long term purpose.
+Except for the above items, the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair values at
+31 December 2017 and 2016.
+41 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
+The Group's financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the
+preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Management bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on
+various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily
+apparent from other sources. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts,
+circumstances and conditions change.
+40 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES (Continued)
+The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of such policies and the sensitivity of
+reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the consolidated financial statements. The
+significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 2. Management believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant
+judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2017
+41 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Continued)
+Oil and gas properties and reserves
+The accounting for the exploration and production's oil and gas activities is subject to accounting rules that are unique to the oil and gas industry.
+There are two methods to account for oil and gas business activities, the successful efforts method and the full cost method. The Group has elected
+to use the successful efforts method. The successful efforts method reflects the volatility that is inherent in exploring for mineral resources in that
+costs of unsuccessful exploratory efforts are charged to expense as they are incurred. These costs primarily include dry hole costs, seismic costs
+and other exploratory costs. Under the full cost method, these costs are capitalised and written-off or depreciated over time.
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have to be
+met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as "proved". Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated at least
+annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels change from
+year to year, the estimate of proved and proved developed reserves also changes. This change is considered a change in estimate for accounting
+purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in relation to depreciation rates. Oil and gas reserves have a direct impact on the assessment of
+the recoverability of the carrying amounts of oil and gas properties reported in the financial statements. If proved reserves estimates are revised
+downwards, earnings could be affected by changes in depreciation expense or an immediate write-down of the property's carrying amount.
+Future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties are estimated with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration the
+anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with industry practices in similar geographic area, including estimation of economic
+life of oil and gas properties, technology and price level. The present values of these estimated future dismantlement costs are capitalised as oil and
+gas properties with equivalent amounts recognised as provisions for dismantlement costs.
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment loss
+and future dismantlement costs. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based on volumes
+produced and reserves.
+Impairment for long-lived assets
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered “impaired", and an
+impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with IAS 36 "Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are reviewed
+periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for impairment
+whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has
+occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. The recoverable
+amount is the greater of the net selling price and the value in use. It is difficult to precisely estimate selling price because quoted market prices for
+the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining the value in use, expected cash flows generated by the asset
+or the cash-generating unit are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to level of sale volume, selling price,
+amount of operating costs and discount rate. Management uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable
+approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sale volume, selling
+price, amount of operating costs and discount rate.
+Depreciation
+Property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the
+assets, after taking into account the estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets at least annually in order
+to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group's historical
+experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if
+there are significant changes from previous estimates.

+41 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Continued)
+Impairment for bad and doubtful debts
+Management estimates impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts resulting from the inability of the Group's customers to make the required
+payments. Management bases the estimates on the ageing of the accounts receivable balance, customer credit-worthiness, and historical write-off
+experience. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, actual write-offs would be higher than estimated.
+Allowance for diminution in value of inventories
+If the costs of inventories become higher than their net realisable values, an allowance for diminution in value of inventories is recognised. Net
+realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated
+costs necessary to make the sale. Management bases the estimates on all available information, including the current market prices of the finished
+goods and raw materials, and historical operating costs. If the actual selling prices were to be lower or the costs of completion were to be higher
+than estimated, the actual allowance for diminution in value of inventories could be higher than estimated.
+42 PARENT AND ULTIMATE HOLDING COMPANY
+The directors consider the parent and ultimate holding company of the Group as at 31 December 2017 is Sinopec Group Company, a state-owned
+enterprise established in the PRC. This entity does not produce financial statements available for public use.

+RMB 327 million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change of interest rates was applied to the Group's debts
+outstanding at the balance sheet date with exposure to cash flow interest rate risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016.

+debts, and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries of the Group are disclosed in Note 29.

+Market risk
+Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The objective of market risk management is
+to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return on risk.
+Currency risk
+Currency risk arises on financial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in which they are measured. The
+Group's currency risk exposure primarily relates to short-term and long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries
+denominated in USD. The Group enters into foreign exchange contracts to manage its currency risk exposure.
+Included in short-term and long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries of the Group are the following amounts
+denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity to which they relate:

+A 5 percent strengthening/weakening of RMB against the following currencies at 31 December 2017 and 2016 would have increased/decreased net
+profit for the year of the Group by the amounts shown below. This analysis has been determined assuming that the change in foreign exchange rates
+had occurred at the balance sheet date and had been applied to the foreign currency balances to which the Group has significant exposure as stated
+above, and that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016.

+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products and
+chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the Group.
+The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps, to manage a portion of this risk. As at 31 December 2017,
+the Group had certain commodity contracts of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products designated as qualified cash flow hedges and
+economic hedges. The fair values of these derivative financial instruments as at 31 December 2017 are set out in Notes 27 and 31.

+with all other variables held constant, would impact the fair value of derivative financial instruments, which would decrease/increase the Group's
+profit for the period by approximately RMB 4,049 million (2016: decrease/increase RMB 634 million), and decrease/increase the Group's other
+reserves by approximately RMB 701 million (2016: decrease/increase RMB 4,007 million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming
+that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the change was applied to the Group's derivative financial instruments at that
+date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016.

+Fair values
+(i) Financial instruments carried at fair value
+The following table presents the carrying value of financial instruments measured at fair value at the balance sheet date across the three levels
+of the fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS 7, 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures', with the fair value of each financial instrument categorised in
+its entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to that fair value measurement. The levels are defined as follows:
+•
+Level 1 (highest level): fair values measured using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments.
+•
+Level 2: fair values measured using quoted prices in active markets for similar financial instruments, or using valuation techniques in which
+all significant inputs are directly or indirectly based on observable market data.
+•
+Level 3 (lowest level): fair values measured using valuation techniques in which any significant input is not based on observable market data.

+(C) DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
+THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES COMPLYING WITH ASBE AND IFRS (UNAUDITED)
+Other than the differences in the classifications of certain financial statements captions and the accounting for the items described below, there are no
+material differences between the Group's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting policies complying with ASBE
+and IFRS. The reconciliation presented below is included as supplemental information, is not required as part of the basic financial statements and
+does not include differences related to classification, presentation or disclosures. Such information has not been subject to independent audit or review.
+The major differences are:
+(I) GOVERNMENT GRANTS
+Under ASBE, grants from the government are credited to capital reserve if required by relevant governmental regulations. Under IFRS, government
+grants relating to the purchase of fixed assets are recognised as deferred income and are transferred to the income statement over the useful life of
+these assets.
+(II) SAFETY PRODUCTION FUND
+Under ASBE, safety production fund should be recognised in profit or loss with a corresponding increase in reserve according to PRC regulations.
+Such reserve is reduced for expenses incurred for safety production purposes or, when safety production related fixed assets are purchased, is
+reduced by the purchased cost with a corresponding increase in the accumulated depreciation. Such fixed assets are not depreciated thereafter.
+Under IFRS, payments are expensed as incurred, or capitalised as fixed assets and depreciated according to applicable depreciation methods.
+Effects of major differences between the shareholders' equity under ASBE and the total equity under IFRS are analysed as follows:

+The information provided does not represent management's estimate of the Group's and its equity method investments' expected future cash flows or
+value of proved oil and gas reserves. Estimates of proved reserve quantities are imprecise and change over time as new information becomes available.
+Moreover, probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the calculations. The arbitrary valuation requires
+assumptions as to the timing and amount of future development and production costs. The calculations are made for the years ended 31 December
+2017 and 2016 and should not be relied upon as an indication of the Group's and its equity method investments' future cash flows or value of its oil
+and gas reserves.
+The standardised measure of discounted future net cash flows, related to the above proved oil and gas reserves, is calculated in accordance with the
+requirements of ASU 2010-03 and “Industrial Information Disclosure Guidelines for Public Company - No.8 Oil and Gas Exploitation". Estimated future
+cash inflows from production are computed by applying the average, first-day-of-the-month price for oil and gas during the twelve-month period before
+the ending date of the period covered by the report to year-end quantities of estimated net proved reserves. Future price changes are limited to those
+provided by contractual arrangements in existence at the end of each reporting year. Future development and production costs are those estimated
+future expenditures necessary to develop and produce year-end estimated proved reserves based on year-end cost indices, assuming continuation of
+year-end economic conditions. Estimated future income taxes are calculated by applying appropriate year-end statutory tax rates to estimated future
+pre-tax net cash flows, less the tax basis of related assets. Discounted future net cash flows are calculated using 10% discount factors. This discounting
+requires a year-by-year estimate of when the future expenditure will be incurred and when the reserves will be produced.

+and Analysis
+In 2017, the segment's operating
+expenses were RMB 946.8 billion,
+representing an increase of 18.4% over
+2016. This is mainly attributed to the
+increase in procurement cost of crude oil.
+In 2017, the average processing cost

+In 2017, refining gross margin was
+RMB 510.7 per tonne, representing
+an increase of RMB 38.8 per tonne
+compared with 2016. This is mainly
+due to the increased proportion of high
+value added products (volume of gasoline
+with high octane number and jet fuel
+increased by 0.7% and 5.6% over 2016
+and diesel to gasoline ratio down to 1.17),
+the promotion of quality upgrading of
+refined oil products (output of gasoline
+and diesel with GB V standard or above
+increased by 58% over 2016), enlarged
+total refinery throughput by increasing
+the export volume, and further improved

+INTERNAL CONTROL
+Report of the Board of Directors
+57
+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2017
+Risks from the uncertainties of obtaining
+additional oil and gas resources: The future
+sustainable development of the Company
+is partly dependent to a certain extent on
+our abilities in continuously discovering
+or acquiring additional oil and natural
+gas resources. To obtain additional oil
+and natural gas resources, the Company
+faces some inherent risks associated with
+exploration and development and/or with
+acquisition activities, and the Company has
+to invest a large amount of money with no
+guarantee of certainty. If the Company fails
+to acquire additional resources through
+further exploration, development and
+acquisition to increase the reserves of crude
+oil and natural gas, the oil and natural gas
+reserves and production of the Company
+may decline overtime which may adversely
+affect the Company's financial situation and
+operation performance.
+Risks with regard to the changes from
+environmental legislation requirements:
+Our production activities generate waste
+liquids, gases and solids. The Company has
+built up the supporting effluent treatment
+systems to prevent and reduce the pollution
+to the environment. However, the relevant
+government authorities may issue and
+implement much stricter environmental
+protection laws and regulations, adopt much
+stricter environment protection standards.
+Under such situations, the Company
+may increase expenses in relation to the
+environment protection accordingly.
+Risks from the macroeconomic policies
+and government regulation: Although the
+Chinese government is gradually liberalizing
+the market entry regulations on petroleum
+and petrochemicals sector, the petroleum
+and petrochemical industries in China are
+still subject to entry regulations to a certain
+degree, which include: issuing licenses in
+relation to exploration and development
+of crude oil and natural gas, issuing
+business licenses for trading crude oil and
+refined oil, setting caps for retail prices of
+gasoline, diesel and other oil products, the
+imposing of the special oil income levy,
+formulation of import and export quotas and
+procedures, formulation of safety, quality
+and environmental protection standards
+and formulation of energy conservation
+policies. In addition, the changes which have
+occurred or might occur in macroeconomic
+and industry policies such as the opening
+up of crude oil import licenses, and further
+improvement in pricing mechanism of refined
+oil products, reforming and improvement
+in pricing mechanism of natural gas, cost
+supervision of gas pipeline and access to
+third party, and reforming in resource tax
+and environmental tax, will cause effects
+on our business operations. Such changes
+might further intensify market competition
+and have certain effect on the operations and
+profitability of the Company.
+I can only counteract the adverse influences of
+industry cycle to some extent.
+Risks with regard to the cyclical effects
+from the industry: The majority of the
+Company's operating income comes
+from the sales of refined oil products and
+petrochemical products, and part of those
+businesses and their related products are
+cyclic and are sensitive to macro-economy,
+cyclic changes of regional and global
+economy, the changes of the production
+capacity and output, demand of consumers,
+prices and supply of the raw materials, as
+well as prices and supply of the alternative
+products etc. Although the Company is
+an integrated company with upstream,
+midstream and downstream operations, it
+Risks with regard to the variations from
+macroeconomic situation: The business
+results of the Company are closely related to
+China's and global economic situation. The
+development of Chinese economy has entered
+New Normal. Although various countries have
+adopted different kinds of macroeconomic
+policies to eliminate negative effects caused
+by lower growth of global economy, the
+turnaround of economic recovery still
+remains uncertain. The Company's business
+could also be adversely affected by other
+factors such as the impact on export due to
+trade protectionism from certain countries,
+impact on import which is likely caused by
+regional trade agreements, and negative
+impact on the investment of overseas oil
+and gas exploration and development and
+refining and chemical storage projects which
+results from the uncertainty of international
+crude oil price and etc.
+In the course of its production and
+operations, the Company will actively take
+various measures to circumvent operational
+risks. However, in practice, it may not be
+possible to prevent the occurrence of all
+risks and uncertainties described below.
+25 RISK FACTORS
+The Company always attaches great
+importance to fulfilling social responsibilities,

+By order of the Board
+Cyber-security risks: the Company devotes
+significant resources to protecting our digital
+infrastructure and data against cyber-attacks,
+if our systems against cyber-security risk
+prove to be ineffective, we could be adversely
+affected by, among other things, disruptions
+to our business operations, and loss of
+proprietary information, including intellectual
+property, financial information and employer
+and customer data, injury to people,
+property, environment and reputation. As
+cyber-security attacks continue to evolve,
+we may be required to expend additional
+resources to enhance our protective
+measures against cyber-security breaches.
+The integrated business structure of
+the Company carries strong advantages
+in synergy among its various business
+segments, enabling the Company to
+continuously tap onto potentials in attaining
+an efficient and comprehensive utilisation
+of its resources, and endowed the Company
+with strong resistance against risks, as well
+as remarkable capabilities in sustaining
+profitability.
+Currency risks: At present, China
+implements an administered floating
+exchange rate regime based on market
+supply and demand which is regulated with
+reference to a basket of currencies in terms
+of the exchange rate of Renminbi. As the
+Company purchases a significant portion of
+crude oil in foreign currency which is based
+on US dollar-denominated prices, fluctuations
+in the exchange rate of Renminbi against US
+dollars and certain other foreign currencies
+may affect the Company's purchasing
+costs of crude oil. Meanwhile, according to
+domestic pricing mechanism of refined oil
+products, the prices of domestic refined oil
+products fluctuate with Renminbi exchange
+rate, and the prices of other domestic
+refined and chemical products would also be
+influenced by import price.
+Investment risks: Petroleum and chemical
+sector is a capital intensive industry.
+Although the Company adopted a prudent
+investment strategy, and as required by
+the new procedure and management of
+investment decision-making issued in 2017,
+conducted rigorous feasibility study on
+each investment project, which consists of
+special verifications in raw material market,
+technical scheme, profitability, safety and
+environmental protection, legal compliance,
+etc., certain investment risks will still exist
+and expected returns may not be achieved
+due to major changes in factors such as
+market environment, prices of equipment
+and raw materials, and construction period
+during the implementation of the projects.
+impact resulting from such contingencies.
+to natural disasters. Such contingencies
+may cause serious impacts to the society,
+major financial losses to the Company and
+grievous injuries to people. The Company
+has always been paying great emphasis on
+the safety production, and has implemented
+a strict HSE management system as an
+effort to avoid such risks as far as possible.
+Meanwhile, the main assets and inventories
+of the Company as well as the possibility of
+damage to a third party have been insured.
+However, such measures may not shield the
+Company from financial losses or adverse
+and natural disasters: The process of
+petroleum chemical production is exposed
+to the risks of inflammation, explosion and
+environmental pollution and is vulnerable
+Risks with regard to the operation
+of international crude oil prices and sudden
+disruption of supply of crude oil from certain
+regions.
+Risks with regard to the external purchase
+of crude oil: A significant amount of crude
+oil as needed by the Company is satisfied
+through external purchases. In recent years,
+especially influenced by the mismatch
+between supply and demand of crude oil,
+geopolitics, global economic growth and
+other factors, the prices of crude oil fell
+sharply. Additionally, the supply of crude
+oil may even be interrupted due to some
+extreme major incidents in certain regions.
+Although the Company has taken flexible
+counter measures, it may not fully avoid risks
+associated with any significant fluctuation
+Risks with regard to overseas business
+development and management: The
+Company engages in oil and gas exploration,
+refining and chemical, warehouse logistics
+and international trading businesses in
+some regions outside China. The Company's
+overseas businesses and assets are subject
+to the jurisdiction of the host country's laws
+and regulations. In light of the complicated
+factors such as imbalance of global economy,
+competitiveness of industry and trade
+structure, exclusiveness of regional trading
+blocs, polarisation of benefits distribution
+trade, and politicisation of economic and
+trade issues, including sanctions, barriers to
+entry, instability in the financial and taxation
+policies, contract defaults, tax dispute, the
+Company's risks with regard to overseas
+business development and management
+could be increased.

+concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in
+these financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained
+up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause Sinopec Corp. to cease to continue as a going concern.
+Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by
+management.
+Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.
+•
+Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing Sinopec Corp.'s financial reporting process.
+•
+•
+• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit
+procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
+detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
+omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
+As part of an audit in accordance with CSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
+Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether these financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether
+due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a
+guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CSAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
+fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
+users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

+Because of the significance of the carrying amount of fixed assets

+Low crude oil prices gave rise to possible indication that the carrying
+amount of fixed assets related to oil and gas producing activities as
+at 31 December 2017 might be impaired. The Group has adopted
+discounted future cash flow as the respective recoverable amounts of
+fixed assets related to oil and gas producing activities, which involved
+key estimations or assumptions including:
+Refer to note 14 "FIXED ASSETS", note 44 “IMPAIRMENT LOSSES", and
+note 55 "PRINCIPAL ACCOOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS"
+to the consolidated financial statements.
+Recoverability of the carrying amount of fixed assets related to oil and

+We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit
+findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
+From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of
+the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law
+or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be
+communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of
+such communication.

+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(a) Financial assets (Continued)
+(ii) Impairment (Continued)
+For financial instruments that have low credit risk at the balance sheet date, the Group assumes that there is no significant increase in
+credit risk since the initial recognition, and measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
+For financial instruments on the first stage and the second stage, and that have low credit risk, the Group calculates interest income
+according to carrying amount without deducting the impairment allowance and effective interest rate. For financial instruments on the
+third stage, interest income is calculated according to the carrying amount minus amortised cost after the provision of impairment
+allowance and effective interest rate.
+For accounts receivable, bills receivable and receivables financing related to revenue, the Group measures the loss allowance at an
+amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.
+The Group recognises the loss allowance accrued or written back in profit or loss.
+(iii) Derecognition
+The Group derecognises a financial asset when a) the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset expires; b) the Group
+transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; c) the financial assets have
+been transferred and the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, but
+the Group has not retained control.
+On derecognition of other equity instrument investments, the difference between the carrying amounts and the sum of the consideration
+received and any cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income, is recognised in retained earnings. While
+on derecognition of other financial assets, this difference is recognised in profit or loss.
+(b) Financial liabilities
+Financial Statements (PRC)
+99
+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2019
+Except for the above, other borrowing costs are recognised as financial expenses in the income statement when incurred.
+Borrowing costs incurred on borrowings for the acquisition, construction or production of qualified assets are capitalised into the cost of the
+related assets in the capitalisable period.
+(19) Borrowing costs
+Government grants received in relation to assets are recorded as deferred income, and recognised evenly in profit or loss over the assets'
+useful lives. Government grants received in relation to revenue are recorded as deferred income, and recognised as income in future periods as
+compensation when the associated future expenses or losses arise; or directly recognised as income in the current period as compensation for
+past expenses or losses.
+Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and the Group is able to comply with
+the conditions attaching to them. Government grants in the form of monetary assets are recorded based on the amount received or receivable,
+whereas non-monetary assets are measured at fair value.
+Government grants are the gratuitous monetary assets or non-monetary assets that the Group receives from the government, excluding capital
+injection by the government as an investor. Special funds such as investment grants allocated by the government, if clearly defined in official
+documents as part of "capital reserve" are dealt with as capital contributions, and not regarded as government grants.
+(18) Government grants
+Sales are recognised when control of the goods have transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer. Advance from
+customers but goods not yet delivered is recorded as contract liabilities and is recognised as revenues when a customer obtains control over the
+relevant goods.
+Sales of goods
+The Group sells crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemical products, etc. Revenue is recognised according to the expected consideration
+amount, when a customer obtains control over the relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer obtains control of a promised
+asset, the Group shall consider indicators of the transfer of control, which include, but are not limited to, the Group has a present right to
+payment for the asset; the Group has transferred physical possession of the asset to the customer; the customer has the significant risks and
+rewards of ownership of the asset; the customer has accepted the asset.
+Revenue arises in the course of the Group's ordinary activities, and increases in economic benefits in the form of inflows that result in an
+increase in equity, other than those relating to contributions from equity participants.
+(17) Revenue recognition
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+costs, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision of oil and gas properties.
+Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a contingent event, it is probable that an outflow of economic
+benefits will be required to settle the obligations and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the effect of time value of money is material,
+provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.

+(10) Goodwill
+The initial cost of goodwill represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets
+of the acquiree under the business combination involving entities not under common control.
+Goodwill is not amortised and is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). On disposal of an asset group or a set of
+asset groups, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is written off and included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.
+(11) Financial Instruments
+Financial instruments, refer to the contracts that form one party's financial assets and form the financial liabilities or equity instruments of the
+other party. The Group recognises a financial asset or a financial liability when the Group enters into and becomes a party to the underlining
+contract of the financial instrument.
+Basic pension insurance
+(i) Classification and measurement
+The Group classifies financial assets into different categories depending on the business model for managing the financial assets and the
+contractual terms of cash flows of the financial assets: (1) financial assets measured at amortised cost, (2) financial assets measured at
+fair value through other comprehensive income, (3) financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. A contractual cash flow
+characteristic which could have only a de minimis effect, or could have an effect that is more than de minimis but is not genuine, does
+not affect the classification of the financial asset.
+Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value. For financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, the relevant
+transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. The transaction costs for other financial assets are included in the initially recognised
+amount. However, accounts receivable or bills receivable arising from sales of goods or rendering services, without significant financing
+component, are initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by the Group.
+Debt instruments
+The debt instruments held by the Group refer to the instruments that meet the definition of financial liabilities from the perspective of the
+issuer, and are measured in the following ways:
+they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on either:
+Measured at amortised cost:
+Measured at fair value through other comprehensive income:
+The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for
+selling the financial assets, the contractual cash flow characteristics of such financial assets are consistent with the basic lending
+arrangements. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of
+impairment gains or losses, foreign exchange gains and losses and interest income calculated using the effective interest rate method,
+which are recognised in profit or loss. The financial assets include receivables financing.
+Equity instruments
+Equity instruments that the Group has no power to control, jointly control or exercise significant influence over, are measured at fair value
+through profit or loss and presented as financial assets held for trading.
+In addition, the Group designates some equity instruments that are not held for trading as financial assets at fair value through other
+comprehensive income, and presented in other equity instrument investments. The relevant dividends of these financial assets are
+recognised in profit or loss. When derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is
+transferred to retained earnings.
+(ii) Impairment
+The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortised cost and receivables
+financing measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past
+events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
+The Group measures the expected credit losses of financial instruments on different stages at each balance sheet date. For financial
+instruments that have no significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition, on first stage, the Group measures the loss
+allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk since the initial
+recognition of a financial instrument but credit impairment has not occurred, on second stage, the Group recognises a loss allowance
+at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. If credit impairment has occurred since the initial recognition of a financial
+instrument, on third stage, the Group recognises a loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

+The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows. The contractual
+cash flow characteristics are to give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the
+principal amount outstanding. Interest income from these financial assets is recognised using the effective interest rate method. The
+financial assets include cash at bank and on hand and receivables.
+the taxable entity has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and current tax liabilities; and
+At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if all the following conditions are met:
+The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date. If it is unlikely to obtain sufficient taxable income to offset
+against the benefit of deferred tax asset, the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets is written down. Any such write-down should be
+subsequently reversed where it becomes probable that sufficient taxable income will be available.
+Cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with all, or a
+component of, a recognised asset or liability (such as all or some future interest payments on variable-rate debt) or a highly probable
+forecast transaction, and could affect profit or loss. As long as a cash flow hedge meets the qualifying criteria for hedge accounting,
+the hedging relationship shall be accounted for as follows:
+-
+The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument from inception of the hedge;
+The cumulative change in present value of the expected future cash flows on the hedged item from inception of the hedge.
+The gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income.
+The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an ineffective hedge is recognised in profit or loss.
+If a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, or a hedged
+forecast transaction for a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability becomes a firm commitment for which fair value hedge
+accounting is applied, the entity shall remove that amount from the cash flow hedge reserve and include it directly in the initial cost
+or other carrying amount of the asset or the liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and hence it does not affect other
+comprehensive income.
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding two policy statements, that amount shall be reclassified from the
+cash flow hedge reserve to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged.
+expected future cash flows affect profit or loss.
+If the amount that has been accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve is a loss and the Group expects that all or a portion of that
+loss will not be recovered in one or more future periods, the Group immediately reclassify the amount that is not expected to be
+recovered into profit or loss.
+When the hedging relationship no longer meets the risk management objective on the basis of which it qualified for hedge accounting (ie
+the entity no longer pursues that risk management objective), or when a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised,
+or there is no longer an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument or the effect of credit risk starts
+to dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship or no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the
+Group discontinues prospectively the hedge accounting treatments. If the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that
+amount shall remain in the cash flow hedge reserve and shall be accounted for as cash flow hedges. If the hedged future cash flows
+are no longer expected to occur, that amount shall be immediately reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or loss as a
+reclassification adjustment. A hedged future cash flow that is no longer highly probable to occur may still be expected to occur, if the
+hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that amount shall remain in the cash flow hedge reserve and shall be accounted
+for as cash flow hedges.
+(12) Impairment of other non-financial long-term assets
+Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date for indications that the following assets, including fixed
+assets, construction in progress, right-of-use assets, goodwill, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures
+may be impaired.
+Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The
+recoverable amounts of goodwill and intangible assets with uncertain useful lives are estimated annually no matter there are any indications of
+impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment together with related asset units or groups of asset units.
+An asset unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or
+groups of assets. An asset unit comprises related assets that generate associated cash inflows. In identifying an asset unit, the Group primarily
+considers whether the asset unit is able to generate cash inflows independently as well as the management style of production and operational
+activities, and the decision for the use or disposal of asset.

+(12) Impairment of other non-financial long-term assets (Continued)
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash flows generated by the
+asset (or asset unit, set of asset units).
+Fair value less costs to sell of an asset is based on its selling price in an arm's length transaction less any direct costs attributable to the
+disposal. Present value of expected future cash flows is the estimation of future cash flows to be generated from the use of and upon disposal of
+the asset, discounted at an appropriate pre-tax discount rate over the asset's remaining useful life.
+If the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. The amount
+by which the carrying amount is reduced is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. A provision for impairment loss of the asset
+is recognised accordingly. Impairment losses related to an asset unit or a set of asset units first reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill
+allocated to the asset unit or set of asset units, and then reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the asset unit or set of asset units on
+a pro rata basis. However, the carrying amount of an impaired asset will not be reduced below the highest of its individual fair value less costs
+to sell (if determinable), the present value of expected future cash flows (if determinable) and zero.
+Impairment losses for assets are not reversed.
+(13) Long-term deferred expenses
+Long-term deferred expenses are amortised on a straight-line basis over their beneficial periods.
+(14) Employee benefits
+Employee benefits are all forms of considerations and compensation given in exchange for services rendered by employees, including short term
+compensation, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long term employee benefits.
+(a) Short term compensation
+Short term compensation includes salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, employee benefits, medical insurance premiums, work-
+related injury insurance premium, maternity insurance premium, contributions to housing fund, unions and education fund and short-term
+absence with payment etc. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group shall recognise the
+short term compensation actually incurred as a liability and charge to the cost of an asset or to profit or loss in the same period, and non-
+monetary benefits are valued with the fair value.
+(b) Post-employment benefits
+The Group classifies post-employment benefits into either Defined Contribution Plan (DC plan) or Defined Benefit Plan (DB plan). DC plan
+means the Group only contributes a fixed amount to an independent fund and no longer bears other payment obligation; DB plan is post-
+employment benefits other than DC plan. In this reporting period, the post-employment benefits of the Group primarily comprise basic
+pension insurance and unemployment insurance and both of them are DC plans.

+(3) The hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the entity actually
+hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the entity actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item. However, that
+designation shall not reflect an imbalance between the weightings of the hedged item and the hedging instrument.
+(1) There is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, which share a risk and that gives rise to opposite
+changes in fair value that tend to offset each other.
+At the balance sheet date, the amounts of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of recovery or settlement of the
+carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates that are expected to be applied in the period when the asset is recovered or the
+liability is settled in accordance with tax laws.

+Temporary differences arise in a transaction, which is not a business combination, and at the time of transaction, does not affect accounting
+profit or taxable profit (or unused tax losses), will not result in deferred tax. Temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill
+will not result in deferred tax.
+Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised based on deductible temporary differences and taxable temporary differences respectively.
+Temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Unused tax losses and unused
+tax credits able to be utilised in subsequent years are treated as temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it
+is probable that future taxable income will be available to offset the deductible temporary differences.
+At the balance sheet date, current tax assets and liabilities are offset if the Group has a legally enforceable right to set them off and also intends
+either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
+Current tax is the expected tax payable calculated at the applicable tax rate on taxable income for the year, plus any adjustment to tax payable
+in respect of previous years.
+Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to business combinations and items recognised
+directly in equity (including other comprehensive income).
+(15) Income tax
+When the Group terminates the employment relationship with employees before the employment contracts expire, or provides compensation
+as an offer to encourage employees to accept voluntary redundancy, a provision for the termination benefits provided is recognised in profit
+or loss under the conditions of both the Group has a formal plan for the termination of employment or has made an offer to employees for
+voluntary redundancy, which will be implemented shortly; and the Group is not allowed to withdraw from termination plan or redundancy
+offer unilaterally.
+The Group, at initial recognition, classifies financial liabilities as either financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost or
+financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
+(2) The effect of credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship.
+The Group's financial liabilities are mainly financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, including bills payable, accounts payable, other
+payables, loans and debentures payable, etc. These financial liabilities are initially measured at the amount of their fair value after deducting
+transaction costs and use the effective interest rate method for subsequent measurement.
+(c) Determination of fair value
+If there is an active market for financial instruments, the quoted price in the active market is used to measure fair values of the financial
+instruments. If no active market exists for financial instruments, valuation techniques are used to measure fair values. In valuation, the Group
+adopts valuation techniques that are applicable in the current situation and have sufficient available data and other information to support it,
+and selects input values that are consistent with the asset or liability characteristics considered by market participants in the transaction of
+relevant assets or liabilities, and gives priority to relevant observable input values. Use of unobservable input values where relevant observable
+input values cannot be obtained or are not practicable.
+(d) Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
+Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or
+loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss, except where the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting.
+Hedge accounting is a method which recognises the offsetting effects on profit or loss of changes in the fair values of the hedging instrument
+and the hedged item in the same accounting period, to represent the effect of risk management activities.
+Hedged items are the items that expose the Group to risks of changes in future cash flows and that are designated as being hedged and that
+must be reliably measurable. The Group's hedged items include a forecast transaction that is settled with an undetermined future market
+price and exposes the Group to risk of variability in cash flows, etc.
+A hedging instrument is a designated derivative whose changes in cash flows are expected to offset changes in the cash flows of the hedged
+item.

+inventories to their present location and condition. The cost of inventories is mainly calculated using the weighted average method. In addition to
+the cost of purchase of raw material, work in progress and finished goods include direct labour and an appropriate allocation of manufacturing
+overhead costs.
+At the balance sheet date, inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
+Any excess of the cost over the net realisable value of each item of inventories is recognised as a provision for diminution in the value of
+inventories. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the
+estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes. The net realisable value of materials held for use in the production is measured
+based on the net realisable value of the finished goods in which they will be incorporated. The net realisable value of the quantity of inventory
+held to satisfy sales or service contracts is measured based on the contract price. If the quantities held by the Group are more than the
+quantities of inventories specified in sales contracts, the net realisable value of the excess portion of inventories is measured based on general
+selling prices.

+(4) Inventories (Continued)
+Inventories include raw materials, work in progress, semi-finished goods, finished goods and reusable materials. Reusable materials include
+low-value consumables, packaging materials and other materials, which can be used repeatedly but do not meet the definition of fixed assets.
+Reusable materials are amortised in full when received for use. The amounts of the amortisation are included in the cost of the related assets or
+profit or loss.
+Inventories are recorded by perpetual method.
+(5) Long-term equity investments
+(a) Investment in subsidiaries
+In the Company's separate financial statements, long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method.
+Except for cash dividends or profits distributions declared but not yet distributed that have been included in the price or consideration paid
+in obtaining the investments, the Company recognises its share of the cash dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee as
+investment income irrespective of whether these represent the net profit realised by the investee before or after the investment. Investments
+in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(12)) in the balance sheet. At initial recognition, such investments are
+measured as follows:
+94
+For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the initial
+investment cost comprises the aggregate of the fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued
+by the Company, in exchange for control of the acquiree. For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not
+involving enterprises under common control, if it is achieved in stages, the initial cost comprises the carrying value of previously-held equity
+investment in the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date, and the additional investment cost at the acquisition date.
+An investment in a subsidiary acquired otherwise than through a business combination is initially recognised at actual purchase cost if the
+Group acquires the investment by cash, or at the fair value of the equity securities issued if an investment is acquired by issuing equity
+securities, or at the value stipulated in the investment contract or agreement if an investment is contributed by investors.
+(b) Investment in joint ventures and associates
+A joint venture is an incorporated entity over which the Group, based on legal form, contractual terms and other facts and circumstances,
+has joint control with the other parties to the joint venture and rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually
+agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of
+the Group and the parties sharing control.
+An associate is the investee that the Group has significant influence on their financial and operating policies. Significant influence represents
+the right to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over the establishment
+of these policies. The Group generally considers the following circumstances in determining whether it can exercise significant influence
+over the investee: whether there is representative appointed to the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the investee; whether
+to participate in the investee's policy-making process; whether there are significant transactions with the investees; whether there is
+management personnel sent to the investee; whether to provide critical technical information to the investee.
+An investment in a joint ventures or an associate is accounted for using the equity method, unless the investment is classified as held for
+sale.
+The initial cost of investment in joint ventures and associates is stated at the consideration paid except for cash dividends or profits
+distributions declared but unpaid at the time of acquisition and therefore included in the consideration paid should be deducted if the
+investment is made in cash. Under the circumstances that the long-term investment is obtained through non-monetary asset exchange, the
+initial cost of the investment is stated at the fair value of the assets exchanged if the transaction has commercial substance, the difference
+between the fair value of the assets exchanged and its carrying amount is charged to profit or loss; or stated at the carrying amount of the
+assets exchanged if the transaction lacks commercial substance.
+The Group's accounting treatments when adopting the equity method include:
+Where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable
+net assets at the date of acquisition, the investment is initially recognised at the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost is
+less than the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition, the investment is initially
+recognised at the investor's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets, and the difference is charged to profit or loss.
+(3) Cash and cash equivalents
+The assets and liabilities of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The equity
+items, excluding "Retained earnings", are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the transaction dates. The income and expenses
+of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates or an exchange rate that approximates the spot exchange rates on
+the transaction dates. The resulting exchange differences are separately presented as other comprehensive income in the balance sheet within
+equity. Upon disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognised in which relate to that foreign
+operation is transferred to profit or loss in the year in which the disposal occurs.
+Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the PBOC rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences, except for those directly
+related to the acquisition, construction or production of qualified assets, are recognised as income or expenses in the income statement. Non-
+monetary items denominated in foreign currency measured at historical cost are not translated. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign
+currency that are measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The difference
+between the translated amount and the original currency amount is recognised as other comprehensive income, if it is classified as other equity
+instrument investments; or charged to the income statement if it is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
+Foreign currency transactions are, on initial recognition, translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates quoted by the People's Bank of
+China ("PBOC rates") at the transaction dates.

+Financial Statements (PRC)
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+For the year ended 31 December 2019
+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
+The Group determines specific accounting policies and accounting estimates based on the characteristics of production and operational activities,
+mainly reflected in the accounting for allowance for financial assets (Note 3(11)), valuation of inventories (Note 3(4)), depreciation of fixed assets
+and depletion of oil and gas properties (Note 3(7), (8)), measurement of provisions (Note 3(16)), etc.
+Principal accounting estimates and judgements of the Group are set out in Note 56.
+(1) Accounting treatment of business combination involving entities under common control and not under common control
+(a) Business combination involving entities under common control
+A business combination involving entities or businesses under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination, and that
+control is not transitory. The assets and liabilities that the acquirer receives in the acquisition are accounted for at the acquiree's carrying
+amount on the acquisition date. The difference between the carrying amount of the acquired net assets and the carrying amount of the
+consideration paid for the acquisition (or the total nominal value of shares issued) is recognised in the share premium of capital reserve, or
+the retained earnings in case of any shortfall in the share premium of capital reserve. Any costs directly attributable to the combination shall
+be recognised in profit or loss for the current period when occurred. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt securities issued as
+the consideration of the combination is recognised in the initial cost of the securities. The combination date is the date on which the acquirer
+effectively obtains control of the acquiree.
+(b) Business combination involving entities not under common control
+A business combination involving entities or businesses not under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are not ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination. Difference
+between the consideration paid by the Group as the acquirer, comprises of the aggregate of the fair value at the acquisition date of assets
+given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued by the acquirer in exchange for control of the acquiree, and the Group's
+interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, is recognised as goodwill (Note 3(10)) if it is an excess, otherwise in
+the profit or loss. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt securities issued as the consideration of the combination is recognised
+in the initial cost of the securities. Any other expense directly attributable to the business combination is recognised in the profit or loss
+for the year. The difference between the fair value and the book value of the assets given is recognised in profit or loss. The acquiree's
+identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, if satisfying the recognition criteria, are recognised by the Group at their fair value at
+the acquisition date. The acquisition date is the date on which the acquirer effectively obtains control of the acquiree.
+(c) Method for preparation of consolidated financial statements
+The scope of consolidated financial statements is based on control and the consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its
+subsidiaries. Control means an entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability
+to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial
+statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
+Annual Report 2019 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+Where the Company combines a subsidiary during the reporting period through a business combination involving entities under common
+control, the financial statements of the subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements as if the combination had occurred at
+the beginning of the earliest comparative year presented or, if later, at the date that common control was established. Therefore the opening
+balances and the comparative figures of the consolidated financial statements are restated. In the preparation of the consolidated financial
+statements, the subsidiary's assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated
+income statement, respectively, based on their carrying amounts in the subsidiary's financial statements, from the date that common control
+was established.
+Where the Company acquired a minority interest from a subsidiary's minority shareholders, the difference between the investment cost and
+the newly acquired interest into the subsidiary's identifiable net assets at the acquisition date is adjusted to the capital reserve (capital
+surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. Where the Company partially disposed an investment of a subsidiary that do not result in a loss
+of control, the difference between the proceeds and the corresponding share of the interest into the subsidiary is adjusted to the capital
+reserve (capital surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. If the credit balance of capital reserve (capital surplus) is insufficient, any excess
+is adjusted to retained profits.
+In a business combination involving entities not under common control achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity
+interest in the acquiree on the acquisition date. The difference between the fair value and the net book value is recognised as investment
+income for the year. If other comprehensive income was recognised regarding the equity interest previously held in the acquiree before the
+acquisition date, the relevant other comprehensive income is transferred to investment income in the period in which the acquisition occurs.

+(c) Method for preparation of consolidated financial statements (Continued)
+Where control of a subsidiary is lost due to partial disposal of the equity investment held in a subsidiary, or any other reasons, the Group
+derecognises assets, liabilities, minority interests and other equity items related to the subsidiary. The remaining equity investment is
+remeasured to fair value at the date in which control is lost. The sum of consideration received from disposal of equity investment and the
+fair value of the remaining equity investment, net of the fair value of the Group's previous share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets
+recorded from the acquisition date, is recognised in investment income in the period in which control is lost. Other comprehensive income
+related to the previous equity investment in the subsidiary, is transferred to investment income when control is lost. Other comprehensive
+income related to the equity investment of the original subsidiary shall be converted into the current investment income in the event of loss
+of control.
+Minority interest is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet within shareholders' equity. Net profit or loss attributable to
+minority shareholders is presented separately in the consolidated income statement below the net profit line item.
+The excess of the loss attributable to the minority interests during the period over the minority interests' share of the equity at the beginning
+of the reporting period is deducted from minority interests.
+Where the accounting policies and accounting period adopted by the subsidiaries are different from those adopted by the Company,
+adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements according to the Company's accounting policies and accounting period. Intra-
+group balances and transactions, and any unrealised profit or loss arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the
+consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as unrealised
+gains but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
+The unrealised profit or loss arising from the sale of assets by the Company to its subsidiaries is eliminated in full against the net profit
+attributed to shareholders; the unrealised profit or loss from the sale of assets by subsidiaries to the Company is eliminated according to the
+distribution ratio between shareholders of the parent company and minority interests. For sale of assets that occurred between subsidiaries,
+the unrealised gains and losses is eliminated according to the distribution ratio for its subsidiaries seller between net profit attributable to
+shareholders of the parent company and minority interests.
+(2) Transactions in foreign currencies and translation of financial statements in foreign currencies
+Where the Company acquires a subsidiary during the reporting year through a business combination involving entities not under common
+control, the identifiable assets, liabilities and results of operations of the subsidiaries are consolidated into consolidated financial statements
+from the date that control commences, based on the fair value of those identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+The initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination involving entities under common
+control is the Company's share of the carrying amount of the subsidiary's equity at the combination date. The difference between the initial
+investment cost and the carrying amounts of the consideration given is adjusted to share premium in capital reserve. If the balance of the
+share premium is insufficient, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings.
+Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Group using in the production of goods, rendering of services and for operation and
+administrative purposes with useful life over one year.
+When the Group leases self-owned plants and buildings, equipment and machinery, lease income from an operating lease is recognised on a
+straight-line basis over the period of the lease. The Group recognises variable lease income which is based on a certain percentage of sales
+as rental income when occurred.

+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(7) Fixed assets and construction in progress
+For the year ended 31 December 2019
+Fixed assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). Construction in
+progress is stated in the balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(12)).
+The cost of a purchased fixed asset comprises the purchase price, related taxes, and any directly attributable expenditure for bringing the asset
+to working condition for its intended use. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour, capitalised borrowing
+costs (see Note 3(19)), and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use. According to legal
+or contractual obligations, costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which the related assets located are included in
+the initial cost.
+Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when the asset is ready for its intended use. No depreciation is provided against
+construction in progress.
+Where the individual component parts of an item of fixed asset have different useful lives or provide benefits to the Group in different patterns
+thus necessitating use of different depreciation rates or methods, each part is recognised as a separate fixed asset.
+The subsequent costs including the cost of replacing part of an item of fixed assets are recognised in the carrying amount of the item if the
+recognition criteria are satisfied, and the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of fixed
+assets are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
+The Group terminates the recognition of an item of fixed asset when it is in a state of disposal or it is estimated that it is unable to generate
+any economic benefits through use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of fixed asset are determined
+as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of
+retirement or disposal.
+Other than oil and gas properties, the cost of fixed assets less residual value and accumulated impairment losses is depreciated using the
+straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, unless the fixed asset is classified as held for sale. The estimated useful lives and the
+estimated rate of residual values adopted for respective classes of fixed assets are as follows:
+Estimated Estimated rate
+useful life of residual value
+12.50 years
+3%
+4-30 years
+3%
+Financial Statements (PRC)
+Plants and buildings
+Equipment, machinery and others
+Useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at least each year end.
+(8) Oil and gas properties
+Oil and gas properties include the mineral interests in properties, wells and related support equipment arising from oil and gas exploration and
+production activities.
+The acquisition cost of mineral interest is capitalised as oil and gas properties. Costs of development wells and related support equipment are
+capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially capitalised as construction in progress pending determination of whether the well has found
+proved reserves. Exploratory well costs are charged to expenses upon the determination that the well has not found proved reserves. However,
+in the absence of a determination of the discovery of proved reserves, exploratory well costs are not carried as an asset for more than one
+year following completion of drilling. If, after one year has passed, a determination of the discovery of proved reserves cannot be made, the
+exploratory well costs are impaired and charged to expense. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, are charged
+to profit or loss in the year as incurred.
+The Group estimates future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration
+the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with the industry practices. These estimated future dismantlement costs are
+discounted at credit-adjusted risk-free rate and are capitalised as oil and gas properties, which are subsequently amortised as part of the costs
+of the oil and gas properties.
+Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based on volumes produced and reserves.
+(9) Intangible assets
+Intangible assets, where the estimated useful life is finite, are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortisation and provision
+for impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). For an intangible asset with finite useful life, its cost less estimated residual value and accumulated
+impairment losses is amortised on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives, unless the intangible assets are classified as held for sale.
+An intangible asset is regarded as having an indefinite useful life and is not amortised when there is no foreseeable limit to the year over which
+the asset is expected to generate economic benefits for the Group.
+A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is a finance lease. An operating lease is a
+lease other than a finance lease.
+(b) As Lessor
+Employees of the Group participate in the social insurance system established and managed by local labor and social security department.
+The Group makes basic pension insurance to the local social insurance agencies every month, at the applicable benchmarks and rates
+stipulated by the government for the benefits of its employees. After the employees retire, the local labor and social security department has
+obligations to pay them the basic pension. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group
+shall recognise the accrued amount according to the above social security provisions as a liability and charge to the cost of an asset or to
+profit or loss in the same period.
+Right-of-use assets of the Group mainly comprise land. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost which comprises the amount of the initial
+measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, any initial direct costs incurred by the
+lessee, less any lease incentives received. The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the
+lease term on a straight-line basis. When the recoverable amount of a right-of-use asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount
+is reduced to the recoverable amount.
+Payments associated with short-term leases with lease terms within 12 months and leases for which the underlying assets are individually
+of low value when it is new are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an expense in profit or loss or as cost of relevant
+assets, instead of recognising right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.
+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(b) Investment in joint ventures and associates (Continued)
+After the acquisition of the investment, the Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses and other comprehensive income
+as investment income or losses and other comprehensive income, and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment accordingly. Once the
+investee declares any cash dividends or profits distributions, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced by that attributable to the
+Group.
+The Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses after making appropriate adjustments to align the accounting policies
+or accounting periods with those of the Group based on the fair values of the investee's net identifiable assets at the time of acquisition.
+Under the equity accounting method, unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its associates or joint
+ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associates or joint ventures. Unrealised losses resulting from transactions
+between the Group and its associates or joint ventures are fully recognised in the event that there is an evidence of impairment.
+(5) Long-term equity investments (Continued)
+(c) The impairment assessment method and provision accrual on investment
+The impairment assessment and provision accrual on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are stated in Note 3(12).
+(6) Leases
+A lease is a contract that a lessor transfers the right to use an identified asset for a period of time to a lessee in exchange for consideration.
+(a) As Lessee
+The Group recognises a right-of-use asset at the commencement date, and recognises the lease liability at the present value of the lease
+payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments include fixed payments, the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is
+reasonably certain to exercise that option, and payments of penalties for terminating the lease if the lease term reflects the Group exercising
+that option, etc. Variable payments that are based on a percentage of sales are not included in the lease payments, and should be recognised
+in profit or loss when incurred. Lease liabilities to be paid within one year (including one year) from balance sheet date is presented in non-
+current liabilities due within one year.
+The Group discontinues recognising its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment
+and any long-term interest that is in substance forms part of the Group's net investment in the associate or the joint venture is reduced to
+zero, except to the extent that the Group has an obligation to assume additional losses. However, if the Group has incurred obligations for
+additional losses and the conditions on recognition of provision are satisfied in accordance with the accounting standard on contingencies,
+the Group continues recognising the investment losses and the provision. Where net profits are subsequently made by the associate or joint
+venture, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised.
+The Group adjusts the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment for changes in owners' equity of the investee other than those
+arising from net profits or losses and other comprehensive income, and recognises the corresponding adjustment in capital reserve.

+Periodically, management performed assessment on the probability that future taxable profit will be available over the period which the deferred tax
+assets can be realised or utilised. In assessing the probability, both positive and negative evidence was considered, including whether it is probable
+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the
+tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur. During the year ended 31 December 2019, write-down of deferred tax assets
+amounted to RMB 189 million (2018: RMB 188 million) (Note 52).
+At 31 December 2019, certain subsidiaries of the Company did not recognise deferred tax of deductible loss carried forward of RMB 16,605 million
+(2018: RMB 18,308 million), of which RMB 1,992 million (2018: RMB 2,437 million) was incurred for the year ended 31 December 2019, because
+it was not probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. These deductible losses carried forward of RMB 3,163 million, RMB 3,156 million,
+RMB 5,938 million, RMB 2,356 million and RMB 1,992 million will expire in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and after, respectively.

+Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchase over the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities. The recoverable amounts of the
+above cash generating units are determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial
+budgets approved by management covering a one-year period and pre-tax discount rates primarily ranging from 11.0% to 11.9% (2018: 11.7% to
+12.3%). Cash flows beyond the one-year period are maintained constant. Based on the estimated recoverable amount, no major impairment loss
+was recognised.
+Key assumptions used for cash flow forecasts for these entities are the gross margin and sales volume. Management determined the budgeted gross
+margin based on the gross margin achieved in the period immediately before the budget period and management's expectation on the future trend
+of the prices of crude oil and petrochemical products. The sales volume was based on the production capacity and/or the sales volume in the period
+immediately before the budget period.
+19 LONG-TERM DEFERRED EXPENSES
+Long-term deferred expenses primarily represent catalysts expenditures and improvement expenditures of fixed assets.

+(i) In 2019, the total amount transferred to subsidiaries is RMB 10,838 million, which is mainly caused by Sinopec Wuhan Petrochemical
+Branch transferring its fixed assets related to refining production to its subsidiary Sinopec-SK (Wuhan) Petrochemical Company Limited
+("Sinopec-SK"). The original cost of transferred fixed assets is RMB 9,122 million, the depreciation is RMB 5,537 million, the impairment is
+RMB 22 million, and the total net book value of transferred fixed assets is RMB 3,563 million.
+Impairment losses on fixed assets for the year ended 31 December 2019 primarily represent impairment losses recognised in the refining
+segment of RMB 140 million (2018: RMB 353 million), the marketing and distribution segment of RMB 52 million (2018: RMB 254 million), the
+chemicals segment of RMB 4 million (2018: RMB 1,252 million) and the exploration and production ("E&P") segment of RMB 0 million (2018:
+RMB 4,274 million). The primary factor resulting in the E&P segment impairment loss in the prior year was downward revision of oil and gas
+reserve in certain fields. Exploration and production ("E&P") segment determines recoverable amounts of fixed assets relating to oil and gas
+producing activities include significant judgments and assumptions. The recoverable amounts were determined based on the present values of
+the expected future cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.47% (2018: 10.47%). Further future downward revisions to the
+Group's oil price outlook would lead to further impairments which, in aggregate, are likely to be material. It is estimated that a general decrease
+of 5% in oil price, with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss in Group's fixed assets relating to oil and
+gas producing activities by approximately RMB 184 million (2018: RMB 312 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in operating
+cost, with all other variables held constant, would result additional impairment loss in Group's fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing
+activities by approximately RMB 180 million (2018: RMB 315 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in discount rate, with all
+other variables held constant, would result additional impairment loss in Group's fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities by
+approximately RMB 7 million (2018: less RMB 5 million).
+At 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fixed assets which were pledged.
+At 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fixed assets which were temporarily
+idle or pending for disposal.
+At 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Group and the Company had no individually significant fully depreciated fixed assets which
+were still in use.

+debt, or adjust the proportion of short-term and long-term loans and bonds. Management monitors capital on the basis of the debt-to-capital ratio,
+which is calculated by dividing long-term loans (excluding current portion) and debentures payable, by the total of equity attributable to shareholders
+of the Company and long-term loans (excluding current portion) and debentures payable, and liability-to-asset ratio, which is calculated by dividing
+total liabilities by total assets. Management's strategy is to make appropriate adjustments according to the Group's operating and investment needs
+and the changes of market conditions, and to maintain the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group at a range considered
+reasonable. As at 31 December 2019, the debt-to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group were 7.4% (2018: 11.5%) and 50.0% (2018:

+Environmental contingencies
+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect the Group's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature and
+extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development areas,
+whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv) changes
+in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is indeterminable
+due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be
+required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot reasonably be estimated at
+present, and could be material.
+The Group recognised normal routine pollutant discharge fees of approximately RMB 9,235 million in the consolidated financial statements for the
+year ended 31 December 2019 (2018: RMB 7,940 million).

+For the year ended 31 December 2019
+60 SEGMENT REPORTING
+In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of
+resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has identified the following five reportable segments. No operating segments have been
+aggregated to form the following reportable segments.
+(i) Exploration and production - which explores and develops oil fields, produces crude oil and natural gas and sells such products to the refining
+segment of the Group and external customers.
+(ii) Refining - which processes and purifies crude oil, which is sourced from the exploration and production segment of the Group and external
+suppliers, and manufactures and sells petroleum products to the chemicals and marketing and distribution segments of the Group and external
+customers.
+(iii) Marketing and distribution - which owns and operates oil depots and service stations in the PRC, and distributes and sells refined petroleum
+products (mainly gasoline and diesel) in the PRC through wholesale and retail sales networks.
+(iv) Chemicals which manufactures and sells petrochemical products, derivative petrochemical products and other chemical products to external
+customers.
+(v) Corporate and others - which largely comprise the trading activities of the import and export companies of the Group and research and
+development undertaken by other subsidiaries.
+The segments were determined primarily because the Group manages its exploration and production, refining, marketing and distribution,
+chemicals, and corporate and others businesses separately. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and/
+or distribute distinct products with different production processes and due to their distinct operating and gross margin characteristics.
+(1) Information of reportable segmental revenues, profits or losses, assets and liabilities
+The Group's chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance and allocates resources to its operating segments on an operating profit
+basis, without considering the effects of finance costs or investment income. Inter-segment transfer pricing is based on the market price or cost
+plus an appropriate margin, as specified by the Group's policy.
+Assets and liabilities dedicated to a particular segment's operations are included in that segment's total assets and liabilities. Segment assets
+include all tangible and intangible assets, except for cash at bank and on hand, long-term equity investments, deferred tax assets and other
+unallocated assets. Segment liabilities exclude short-term loans, non-current liabilities due within one year, long-term loans, debentures payable,
+deferred tax liabilities, other non-current liabilities and other unallocated liabilities.

+The Group monitors the conditions that are subject to the guarantees to identify whether it is probable that a loss will occur, and recognises
+any such losses under guarantees when those losses are reliably estimable. At 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Group estimates
+that there is no need to pay for the guarantees. Thus no liabilities have been accrued for a loss related to the Group's obligation under these
+guarantee arrangements.

+Principal activities
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past events,
+current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Group regularly monitors and reviews the assumptions used for estimating
+expected credit losses.
+(e) Allowance for diminution in value of inventories
+If the costs of inventories become higher than their net realisable values, an allowance for diminution in value of inventories is recognised.
+Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the
+estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Management bases the estimates on all available information, including the current market prices of
+the finished goods and raw materials, and historical operating costs. If the actual selling prices were to be lower or the costs of completion were
+to be higher than estimated, the actual allowance for diminution in value of inventories would be higher than estimated.

+Fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account the estimated residual
+value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets at least annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense
+to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group's historical experience with similar assets and taking into
+account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous
+estimates.
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered “impaired", and
+an impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with "CASS 8 - Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are
+reviewed periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for
+impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a
+decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. The
+recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash flows. It is difficult to precisely
+estimate the fair value because quoted market prices for the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining
+the value of expected future cash flows, expected cash flows generated by the asset or the cash-generating unit are discounted to their present
+value, which requires significant judgement relating to sales volume, selling price, amount of operating costs and discount rate. The Group uses
+all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based
+on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sales volume, selling price, amount of operating costs and discount rate.

+56 PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
+The Group's financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the
+preparation of the financial statements. The Group bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions
+that it believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources.
+On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts, circumstances and conditions
+change.
+The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of
+reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the financial statements. The significant
+accounting policies are set forth in Note 3. The Group believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgements and
+estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.
+(a) Oil and gas properties and reserves
+The accounting for the exploration and production segment's oil and gas activities is subject to accounting rules that are unique to the oil and
+gas industry. The Group has used the successful efforts method to account for oil and gas business activities. The successful efforts method
+reflects the volatility that is inherent in exploring for mineral resources in that costs of unsuccessful exploratory efforts are charged to expense.
+These costs primarily include dry hole costs, seismic costs and other exploratory costs.
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have
+to be met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as “proved". Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated
+at least annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels
+change from year to year, the estimate of proved and proved developed reserves also changes. This change is considered a change in estimate
+for accounting purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in related depreciation rates. Oil and gas reserves have a direct impact on
+the assessment of the recoverability of the carrying amounts of oil and gas properties reported in the financial statements. If proved reserves
+estimates are revised downwards, the Group's earnings could be affected by changes in depreciation expense or an immediate write-down of the
+carrying amount of oil and properties.
+Future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties are estimated with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration
+the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with industry practices in the similar geographic area, including estimation
+of economic life of oil and gas properties, technology and price level. The present values of these estimated future dismantlement costs are
+capitalised as oil and gas properties with equivalent amounts recognised as provisions for dismantlement costs.
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment
+expense and future dismantlement costs. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based
+on volumes produced and reserves.

+(ii) Fair values of financial instruments carried at other than fair value
+The fair values of the Group's financial instruments carried at other than fair value (other than long-term indebtedness and investments in
+unquoted equity securities) approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term
+indebtedness are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market interest rates offered to the Group for debt with substantially
+the same characteristic and maturities range from 2.37% to 4.90% (2018: from 2.76% to 4.90%). The following table presents the carrying
+amount and fair value of the Group's long-term indebtedness other than loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries at 31

+The Group has not developed an internal valuation model necessary to estimate the fair value of loans from Sinopec Group Company and
+fellow subsidiaries as it is not considered practicable to estimate their fair value because the cost of obtaining discount and borrowing rates
+for comparable borrowings would be excessive based on the Reorganisation of the Group, its existing capital structure and the terms of the
+borrowings.
+Except for the above items, the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair values

+2019, together with the use of significant estimations or assumptions
+in determining their respective value in use, we had placed our audit
+emphasis on this matter.
+How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
+In auditing the respective value in use calculations of property, plant and
+equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities, we performed the
+following key procedures on the relevant discounted cash flow projections
+prepared by management:
+•
+.
+•
+•
+•
+Evaluated and tested the key controls in respect of the preparation of
+the discounted cash flow projections of property, plant and equipment
+relating to oil and gas producing activities.
+Assessed the methodology adopted in the discounted cash flow
+projections, tested mathematical accuracy of the projections, and the
+completeness, accuracy, and relevance of underlying data used in the
+projections.
+Compared estimates of future crude oil prices adopted by the Group
+against a range of published crude oil price forecasts.
+Compared the future production profiles against the oil and gas
+reserve estimation report approved by the management. Evaluated
+the competence, capability and objectivity of the management's
+experts engaged in estimating the oil and gas reserves. Assessed
+key estimations or assumptions used in the reserve estimation, by
+reference to historical data, management plans and/or relevant
+external data.
+Compared the future cost profiles against historical costs and relevant
+budgets of the Group.
+Tested selected other key data inputs, such as natural gas prices and
+production profiles in the projections by reference to historical data
+and/or relevant budgets of the Group.
+Future crude oil prices;
+Low crude oil prices gave rise to possible indication that the carrying
+amount of property, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing
+activities as at 31 December 2019 might be impaired. The Group has
+adopted value in use as the respective recoverable amounts of property,
+plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities, which
+involved key estimations or assumptions including:
+Refer to note 8 “Other operating expense, net", note 16 "Property, plant

+REPORT OF THE INTERNATIONAL AUDITOR (CONTINUED)
+KEY AUDIT MATTERS
+Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements
+of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
+opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
+The key audit matter identified in our audit is "Recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing
+activities".

+Based on our work, we found the key assumptions and input data adopted
+were supported by the evidence we obtained.
+OTHER INFORMATION
+From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the

+Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an
+opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain
+solely responsible for our audit opinion.
+RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern,
+disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to
+liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
+Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.
+AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement,
+whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. We report our opinion solely to you, as a body, and for no
+other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report. Reasonable assurance is
+a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAS will always detect a material misstatement when it
+exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected
+to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
+As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
+Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform
+audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk
+of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
+intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
+Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
+not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.
+Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the
+directors.
+Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether
+a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If
+we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated
+financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to
+the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
+The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance
+with IFRSS and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the directors determine is
+necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

+The Group's other receivables are considered to have low credit risk, and the loss allowance recognised during the year was therefore limited to
+12 months expected credit losses. The Group considers "low credit risk" for other receivables when they have a low risk of default and the issuer
+has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term.
+The detailed analysis of accounts receivable and receivables financing is listed in note 8 and note 9.
+The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before 31 December 2019 or 1 January 2019,
+respectively, and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current
+and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the accounts receivable, bills receivable
+and receivables financing.
+To measure the expected credit losses, accounts receivable, bills receivable and receivables financing have been grouped based on shared credit
+risk characteristics and the days past due.
+-
+The Group's cash deposits are placed only with large financial institutions with acceptable credit ratings, and there is no material impairment
+loss identified.
+The Group's primary type of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss model is accounts receivable, bills receivable, receivables
+financing and other receivables.
+The carrying amounts of cash at bank and on hand, financial assets held for trading, derivative financial assets, accounts receivable, bills
+receivable, receivables financing and other receivables, represent the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets.
+(ii) Impairment of financial assets
+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
+obligations, and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions (including structured deposits) and receivables
+from customers. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial
+institutions in the PRC with acceptable credit ratings. The majority of the Group's accounts receivable relates to sales of petroleum and chemical
+products to related parties and third parties operating in the petroleum and chemical industries. No single customer accounted for greater than
+10% of total accounts receivable at 31 December 2019, except for the amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries. The
+Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral on accounts receivable.
+The Group maintains an impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within management's expectations.
+(i) Risk management

+balance sheet date) and the earliest date the Group would be required to repay:
+At 31 December 2019, the Group has standby credit facilities with several PRC financial institutions which provide the Group to borrow up to RMB
+379,649 million (2018: RMB 387,748 million) on an unsecured basis, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.57% per annum (2018: 3.87%). At 31
+December 2019, the Group's outstanding borrowings under these facilities were RMB 2,947 million (2018: RMB 21,236 million) and were included
+in loans.
+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group encounters short fall of capital when meeting its obligation of financial liabilities. The Group's approach to
+managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal
+and stressed capital conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. The Group prepares monthly
+cash flow budget to ensure that they will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group arranges and
+negotiates financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the liquidity risk.

+For accounts receivable, bills receivable and receivables financing, the Group applies the "No. 22 Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises

+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+At 31 December 2019, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of USD 10 per barrel in basic price of derivative financial instruments,
+with all other variables held constant, would impact the fair value of derivative financial instruments, which would increase/decrease the Group's
+net profit for the year by approximately RMB 3,134 million (2018: decrease/increase RMB 197 million), and decrease/increase the Group's other
+comprehensive income by approximately RMB 4,289 million (2018: increase/decrease RMB 6,850 million). This sensitivity analysis has been
+determined assuming that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the change was applied to the Group's derivative
+financial instruments at that date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2018.
+At 31 December 2019, the Group had certain commodity contracts of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products designated as
+qualified cash flow hedges and economic hedges. At 31 December 2019, the fair value of such derivative hedging financial instruments is
+derivative financial assets of RMB 788 million (2018: RMB 7,844 million) and derivative financial liabilities of RMB 2,728 million (2018: RMB
+13,568 million).
+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products
+and chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the
+Group. The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps contracts, to manage a portion of such risk.
+(c) Commodity price risk
+At 31 December 2019, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in variable interest rates, with all other variables held
+constant, would decrease/increase the Group's net profit for the year by approximately RMB 352 million (2018: decrease/increase RMB 424
+million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change of interest rates was applied to the Group's debts outstanding
+at the balance sheet date with exposure to cash flow interest rate risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2018.
+The Group's interest rate risk exposure arises primarily from its short-term and long-term loans. Loans carrying interest at variable interest rates
+and at fixed interest rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk respectively. The interest rates and
+terms of repayment of short-term and long-term loans of the Group are disclosed in Note 23 and Note 31, respectively.
+(b) Interest rate risk
+Other than the amounts as disclosed above, the amounts of other financial assets and liabilities of the Group are substantially denominated in
+the functional currency of respective entity of the Group.

+During the year ended 31 December 2019, the Company transferred RMB 3,745 million (2018: RMB 3,996 million) to the statutory surplus reserve, being 10% of the
+current year's net profit determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with CASS.
+(a) According to the PRC Company Law and the Articles of Association of the Company, the Company is required to transfer 10% of its net profit determined in accordance
+with the accounting policies complying with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("CASS"), adopted by the Group to statutory surplus reserve. In the event
+that the reserve balance reaches 50% of the registered capital, no transfer is required. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of a dividend to
+shareholders. Statutory surplus reserve can be used to make good previous years' losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing of new shares to
+shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the balance after such issue is
+not less than 25% of the registered capital.

+(c) As at 31 December 2019, the amount of retained earnings available for distribution was RMB 130,645 million (2018: RMB 143,148 million), being the amount
+determined in accordance with CASS. According to the Articles of Association of the Company, the amount of retained earnings available for distribution to shareholders
+of the Company is lower of the amount determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with CASS and the amount determined in accordance with the
+accounting policies complying with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS”).
+(d) The capital reserve represents (i) the difference between the total amount of the par value of shares issued and the amount of the net assets transferred from Sinopec
+Group Company in connection with the Reorganisation (Note 1); and (ii) the difference between the considerations paid over or received the amount of the net assets of
+entities and related operations acquired from or sold to Sinopec Group Company and non-controlling interests.
+(e) The application of the share premium account is governed by Sections 167 and 168 of the PRC Company Law.

+(iii)Transactions eliminated on consolidation
+When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture, it is accounted for as a disposal of
+the entire interest in that investee, with a resulting gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former investee
+at the date when significant influence or joint control is lost is recognised at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial
+recognition of a financial asset (see Note 2(j)) or, when appropriate, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate.
+The Group's share of the post-acquisition, post-tax results of the investees and any impairment losses for the year are recognised in the
+consolidated income statement, whereas the Group's share of the post-acquisition, post-tax items of the investees' other comprehensive
+income is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
+Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for in the consolidated and separate financial statements using the equity method
+from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. Under the
+equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition change in the Group's share of the
+investee's net assets and any impairment loss relating to the investment (Notes 2(i) and (n)).

+for the year ended 31 December 2019
+(iv) Merger accounting for common control combination
+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+158
+The investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and
+obligations each investor has rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the
+parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
+An associate is an entity, not being a subsidiary, in which the Group exercises significant influence over its management. Significant influence
+is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
+(ii) Associates and joint ventures
+The particulars of the Group's principal subsidiaries are set out in Note 41.
+In the Company's balance sheet, investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(n)).
+When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, it is accounted for as a disposal of the entire interest in that subsidiary, with a resulting gain
+or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is recognised at fair
+value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset (Note 2(j)) or, when appropriate, the cost on
+initial recognition of an investment in an associate or joint venture (Note 2(a)(ii)).
+If a business combination involving entities not under common control is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the
+acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from
+such remeasurement are recognised in the consolidated income statement.
+Changes in the Group's interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions, whereby
+adjustments are made to the amounts of controlling and non-controlling interests within consolidated equity to reflect the change in relative
+interests, but no adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognised.
+Annual Report 2019 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the combining entities or businesses in which the common
+control combination occurs as if they had been combined from the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the
+control of the controlling party. The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the existing book values from the
+controlling parties' perspective. No amount is recognised as consideration for goodwill or excess of acquirers' interest in the net fair value of
+acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of common control combination, to the extent of the
+continuation of the controlling party's interest.
+The consolidated income statement includes the results of each of the combining entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or
+since the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the common control, where there is a shorter period, regardless
+of the date of the common control combination. The comparative amounts in the consolidated financial statements are presented as if the
+entities or businesses had been combined at the previous balance sheet date or when they first came under common control, whichever is
+shorter.
+A uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by those entities. All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions
+between combining entities or businesses are eliminated on consolidation. Transaction costs, including professional fees, registration fees,
+costs of furnishing information to shareholders, costs or losses incurred in combining operations of the previously separate businesses, etc.,
+incurred in relation to the common control combination that is to be accounted for by using merger accounting is recognised as an expense
+in the period in which it is incurred.

+On disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation is reclassified from
+equity to the consolidated income statement when the profit or loss on disposal is recognised.
+The results of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the applicable rates quoted by the PBOC prevailing on the transaction dates.
+Balance sheet items, including goodwill arising on consolidation of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the closing foreign
+exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The income and expenses of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates
+or an exchange rate that approximates the spot exchange rates on the transaction dates. The resulting exchange differences are recognised in
+other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity in the other reserves.
+Exchange differences, other than those capitalised as construction in progress, are recognised as income or expense in the "finance costs"
+section of the consolidated income statement.
+The presentation currency of the Group is Renminbi. Foreign currency transactions during the year are translated into Renminbi at the applicable
+rates of exchange quoted by the People's Bank of China ("PBOC") prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency monetary assets and
+liabilities are translated into Renminbi at the PBOC's rates at the balance sheet date.
+(b) Translation of foreign currencies
+Non-controlling interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests
+that are not owned by the Company, whether directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, are presented in the consolidated balance sheet

+Non-controlling interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement and the consolidated
+statement of comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year between
+non-controlling interests and the shareholders of the Company.
+The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control effectively
+commences until the date that control effectively ceases.
+Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable
+returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

+Key assumptions and estimation made by management in the application of IFRS that have significant effect on the consolidated financial
+statements and the major sources of estimation uncertainty are disclosed in Note 43.
+The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in
+which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both
+current and future periods.
+The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and
+assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
+liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The
+estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under
+the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
+readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
+Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 31 December 2019 reporting periods and
+have not been early adopted by the Group. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future

+the use of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics,
+•
+Financial Statements (International)
+In applying IFRS 16 Leases for the first time, the Group has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:
+(i) Practical expedients applied
+On adoption of IFRS 16 Leases, the Group recognised lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as 'operating
+leases'. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee's incremental
+borrowing rate as of 1 January 2019. The lessee's incremental borrowing rates applied to the lease liabilities on 1 January 2019 ranged from
+4.35% to 4.90%.
+Lease accounting policy applied until 31 December 2018 is disclosed in Note 2(x)(iii).
+The Group has adopted IFRS 16 Leases from 1 January 2019, but has not restated comparative amounts for the 2018 reporting period, as
+permitted under the specific transition provision in the standard. The reclassifications and the adjustments arising from IFRS 16 Leases are
+therefore recognised in the opening balance sheet on 1 January 2019.
+IFRS 16 Leases - Impact of adoption
+A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period and the Group had changed its accounting policies
+as a result of adopting IFRS 16 Leases.
+(a) New and amended standards and interpretations adopted by the Group
+The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for the adoption of new and amended standards as
+set out below.
+(ii) Measurement of lease liabilities
+The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable IFRS as issued by the International
+Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). IFRS includes International Accounting Standards ("IAS") and related interpretations ("IFRIC"). These
+consolidated financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock
+Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted by the Group are set out in Note 2.
+Operating lease commitments disclosed as at 31 December 2018
+Of which are:
+• long-term prepayments and other assets - decrease by RMB 8,125 million
+• prepaid expenses and other current assets - decrease by RMB 766 million
+lease prepayments - decrease by RMB 64,514 million
+•
+⚫ right-of-use assets - increase by RMB 271,969 million
+The change in accounting policy affected the following items in the balance sheet on 1 January 2019:
+(iv) Adjustments recognised in the balance sheet on 1 January 2019
+Total right-of-use assets
+Land
+Others
+The recognised right-of-use assets relate to the following types of assets:

+The Company was established in the PRC on 25 February 2000 as a joint stock limited company as part of the reorganisation (the "Reorganisation")
+of China Petrochemical Corporation ("Sinopec Group Company"), the ultimate holding company of the Group and a ministry-level enterprise under
+the direct supervision of the State Council of the PRC. Prior to the incorporation of the Company, the oil and gas and chemical operations of the
+Group were carried on by oil administration bureaux, petrochemical and refining production enterprises and sales and marketing companies of
+Sinopec Group Company.

+As part of the Reorganisation, certain of Sinopec Group Company's core oil and gas and chemical operations and businesses together with the
+related assets and liabilities were transferred to the Company. On 25 February 2000, in consideration for Sinopec Group Company transferring such
+oil and gas and chemical operations and businesses and the related assets and liabilities to the Company, the Company issued 68.8 billion domestic
+state-owned ordinary shares with a par value of RMB 1.00 each to Sinopec Group Company. The shares issued to Sinopec Group Company on 25
+February 2000 represented the entire registered and issued share capital of the Company on that date. The oil and gas and chemical operations and
+businesses transferred to the Company were related to (i) the exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas, (ii) the refining,
+transportation, storage and marketing of crude oil and petroleum products, and (iii) the production and sales of chemicals.

+(y) Employee benefits
+The contributions payable under the Group's retirement plans are recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement as incurred
+and according to the contribution determined by the plans. Further information is set out in Note 39.
+Termination benefits, such as employee reduction expenses, are recognised when, and only when, the Group demonstrably commits itself to
+terminate employment or to provide benefits as a result of voluntary redundancy by having a detailed formal plan which is without realistic
+possibility of withdrawal.
+(z) Income tax
+Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is calculated on taxable income by applying the applicable tax rates. Deferred tax is
+provided using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
+reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available
+against which the assets can be utilised. Deferred tax is calculated on the basis of the enacted tax rates or substantially enacted tax rates that
+are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. The effect on deferred tax of any changes in tax rates is
+charged or credited to the consolidated income statement, except for the effect of a change in tax rate on the carrying amount of deferred tax
+assets and liabilities which were previously charged or credited to other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
+The tax value of losses expected to be available for utilisation against future taxable income is set off against the deferred tax liability within the
+same legal tax unit and jurisdiction to the extent appropriate, and is not available for set off against the taxable profit of another legal tax unit.
+The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable
+that the related tax benefit will be realised.
+(aa) Dividends
+Dividends and distributions of profits proposed in the profit appropriation plan which will be authorized and declared after the balance sheet
+date, are not recognised as a liability at the balance sheet date and are separately disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Dividends
+are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared.
+(bb) Segment reporting
+Operating segments, and the amounts of each segment item reported in the consolidated financial statements, are identified from the financial
+information provided regularly to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of allocating resources to, and assessing the
+performance of the Group's various lines of business.

+(t) Borrowing costs
+Borrowing costs are expensed in the consolidated income statement in the period in which they are incurred, except to the extent that they are
+capitalised as being attributable to the construction of an asset which necessarily takes a period of time to get ready for its intended use.
+(u) Repairs and maintenance expenditure
+Repairs and maintenance expenditure is expensed as incurred.
+(v) Environmental expenditures
+Environmental expenditures that relate to current ongoing operations or to conditions caused by past operations are expensed as incurred.
+Liabilities related to future remediation costs are recorded when environmental assessments and/or cleanups are probable and the costs can
+be reliably estimated. As facts concerning environmental contingencies become known to the Group, the Group reassesses its position both with
+respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.
+Kerosene
+(w) Research and development expense
+(x) Leases
+A lease is a contract that a lessor transfers the right to use an identified asset for a period of time to a lessee in exchange for consideration.
+(i) As lessee
+The Group recognises a right-of-use asset at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group, and recognises a lease
+liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The lease payments include fixed payments, the exercise price of
+a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and payments of penalties for terminating the lease if the lease
+term reflects the Group exercising that option, etc. Variable payments that are based on a percentage of sales are not included in the lease
+payments, and should be recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Lease liabilities to be paid within one year (including one year) from
+balance sheet date is presented in current liabilities.
+Right-of-use assets of the Group mainly comprise land. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost which comprises the amount of the initial
+measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, any initial direct costs incurred by the
+lessee, less any lease incentives received. The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the
+lease term on a straight-line basis. When the recoverable amount of a right-of-use asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount
+is reduced to the recoverable amount.
+Payments associated with short-term leases with lease terms within 12 months and all leases of low-value assets are recognised on a
+straight-line basis over the lease term as an expense in profit or loss or as cost of relevant assets, instead of recognising right-of-use assets
+and lease liabilities.
+(ii) As lessor
+A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is a finance lease. An operating lease is a
+lease other than a finance lease.
+When the Group leases self-owned plants and buildings, equipment and machinery, lease income from an operating lease is recognised on a
+straight-line basis over the period of the lease. The Group recognises variable lease income which is based on a certain percentage of sales
+as rental income when occurred.
+(iii) Accounting policy applied until 31 December 2018
+Lease prepayments
+Lease prepayments represent land use rights paid to the relevant government authorities. Land use rights are carried at cost less
+accumulated amount charged to expense and impairment losses. The cost of lease prepayments is charged to expense on a straight-line
+basis over the respective periods of the rights.
+Operating leases
+Research and development expenditures that cannot be capitalised are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Research and
+development expense amounted to RMB 9,395 million for the year ended 31 December 2019 (2018: RMB 7,956 million).

+Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs
+that they are intended to compensate.
+Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the
+Group will comply with all attached conditions.
+(s) Government grants
+Sales are recognised when control of the goods have transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer. Advance from
+customers but goods not yet delivered is recorded as contract liabilities and is recognised as revenues when a customer obtains control over the
+relevant goods.
+Prior to 1 January 2008, the acquisition of the non-controlling interests of a consolidated subsidiary was accounted for using the acquisition
+method whereby the difference between the cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired (on a proportionate
+share) was recognised as goodwill. From 1 January 2008, any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interest is adjusted
+(such as through an acquisition of the non-controlling interests) and the cash or other considerations paid is recognised in equity.
+Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill arising on a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating
+unit, or groups of cash-generating units, that is expected to benefit the synergies of the combination and is tested annually for impairment
+(Note 2(n)). In respect of associates or joint ventures, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the interest in the
+associate or joint venture and the investment as a whole is tested for impairment whenever there is objective evidence of impairment (Note 2(n)).
+(j) Financial assets
+(i) Classification and measurement
+The Group classifies financial assets into different categories depending on the business model for managing the financial assets and the
+contractual terms of cash flows of the financial assets: a) financial assets measured at amortised cost, b) financial assets measured at fair
+value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"), c) financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. A contractual cash flow
+characteristic which could have only a de minimis effect, or could have an effect that is more than de minimis but is not genuine, does not
+affect the classification of the financial asset.
+Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value. For financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, the relevant
+transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. The transaction costs for other financial assets are included in the initially recognised
+amount. However, trade accounts receivable and bills receivable arising from sale of goods or rendering services, without significant financing
+component, are initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by the Group.
+Debt instruments
+Debt instruments held by the Group mainly includes cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, receivables. These
+financial assets are measured at amortised cost and FVOCI.
+•
+Amortised cost: The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows. The
+contractual cash flow characteristics are to give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on
+the principal amount outstanding. Interest income from these financial assets is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
+• FVOCI: The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for
+selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
+outstanding. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of impairment
+gains or losses, foreign exchange gains and losses and interest income calculated using the effective interest rate method, which are
+recognised in profit or loss.
+Equity instruments
+Goodwill represents amounts arising on acquisition of subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures. Goodwill represents the difference between the
+cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.
+Equity instruments that the Group has no power to control, jointly control or exercise significant influence over, are measured at fair value
+through profit or loss and presented in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
+(ii) Impairment
+The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost and a debt
+instrument that is measured at FVOCI.
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past
+events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
+The Group measures the expected credit losses of financial instruments on different stages at each balance sheet date. For financial
+instruments that have no significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition, on first stage, the Group measures the loss allowance
+at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition of
+a financial instrument but credit impairment has not occurred, on second stage, the Group recognises a loss allowance at an amount equal
+to lifetime expected credit losses. If credit impairment has occurred since the initial recognition of a financial instrument, on third stage, the
+Group recognises a loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

+(d) Trade, bills and other receivables
+Trade, bills and other receivables are recognised initially at their transaction price, unless they contain significant financing components when
+they are recognised at fair value. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses
+for bad and doubtful debts (Note 2(j)). Trade, bills and other receivables are derecognised if the Group's contractual rights to the cash flows
+from these financial assets expire or if the Group transfers these financial assets to another party without retaining control or substantially all
+risks and rewards of the assets.
+(e) Inventories
+Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost mainly includes the cost of purchase computed using the weighted
+average method and, in the case of work in progress and finished goods, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of production overheads.
+Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated
+costs necessary to make the sale.
+(f) Property, plant and equipment
+An item of property, plant and equipment is initially recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (Note 2(n)). The cost
+of an asset comprises its purchase price, any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition and location for its intended
+use. The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when
+that cost is incurred, when it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the
+item can be measured reliably. All other expenditure is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement in the year in which it is
+incurred.
+Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are
+determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised as income or expense
+in the consolidated income statement on the date of retirement or disposal.
+Depreciation is provided to write off the cost amount of items of property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, over its
+estimated useful life on a straight-line basis, after taking into account its estimated residual value, as follows:
+Buildings
+Equipment, machinery and others
+Estimated
+usage period
+12 to 50 years
+4 to 30 years
+Estimated
+residuals rate
+Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis
+between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reassessed annually.
+(g) Oil and gas properties
+The Group uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas producing activities. Under this method, costs of development
+wells, the related supporting equipment and proved mineral interests in properties are capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially
+capitalised as construction in progress pending determination of whether the well has found proved reserves. The impairment of exploratory well
+costs occurs upon the determination that the well has not found proved reserves. The exploratory well costs are usually not carried as an asset
+for more than one year following completion of drilling, unless (i) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion
+as a producing well if the required capital expenditure is made; (ii) drilling of the additional exploratory wells is under way or firmly planned
+for the near future; or (iii) other activities are being undertaken to sufficiently progress the assessing of the reserves and the economic and
+operating viability of the project. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, other dry hole costs and annual lease
+rentals to explore for or use oil and natural gas, are expensed as incurred. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a
+unit-of-production method based on volumes produced and reserves.
+Management estimates future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties with reference to engineering estimates after taking into
+consideration the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with the industry practices and the future cash flows are adjusted
+to reflect such risks specific to the liability, as appropriate. These estimated future dismantlement costs are discounted at pre-tax risk-free rate
+and are capitalised as oil and gas properties, which are subsequently amortised as part of the costs of the oil and gas properties.
+(h) Construction in progress
+Construction in progress represents buildings, oil and gas properties, various plant and equipment under construction and pending installation,
+and is stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(n)). Cost comprises direct costs of construction as well as interest charges, and foreign
+exchange differences on related borrowed funds to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest charges, during the periods of
+construction.
+Construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when the asset is substantially ready for its intended use.
+No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress.

+Annual Report 2019 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+For financial instruments that have low credit risk at the balance sheet date, the Group assumes that there is no significant increase in credit
+risk since the initial recognition, and measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
+68,425
+For financial instruments on the first stage and the second stage, and that have low credit risk, the Group calculates interest income
+according to carrying amount without deducting the impairment allowance and effective interest rate. For financial instruments on the third
+stage, interest income is calculated according to the carrying amount minus amortised cost after the provision of impairment allowance and
+effective interest rate.
+The Group recognises the loss allowance accrued or written back in profit or loss.
+If the amount that has been accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve is a loss and the Group expects that all or a portion of that loss will not
+be recovered in one or more future periods, the Group immediately reclassifies the amount that is not expected to be recovered into profit or
+loss.
+When the hedging relationship no longer meets the risk management objective on the basis of which it qualified for hedge accounting (ie the
+entity no longer pursues that risk management objective), or when a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised, or there is no
+longer an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument or the effect of credit risk starts to dominate the value
+changes that result from that economic relationship or no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the Group discontinues prospectively
+the hedge accounting treatments. If the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that amount remains in the cash flow hedge
+reserve and is accounted for as cash flow hedges. If the hedged future cash flows are no longer expected to occur, that amount is immediately
+reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. A hedged future cash flow that is no longer highly
+probable to occur may still be expected to occur, if the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that amount remains in the cash
+flow hedge reserve and is accounted for as cash flow hedges.
+(n) Impairment of assets
+The carrying amounts of assets, including property, plant and equipment, construction in progress, right-of-use assets and other assets, are
+reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify indicators that the assets may be impaired. These assets are tested for impairment whenever
+events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has occurred,
+the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated at each balance sheet date.
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to disposal and the value in use. In determining the value in use, expected
+future cash flows generated by the asset are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market
+assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent
+of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e.
+a cash-generating unit).

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2019
+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding policy statements, that amount is reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve
+to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged expected future cash flows affect profit
+or loss.
+(n) Impairment of assets (Continued)
+Management assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset, except in the
+case of goodwill, in prior years may no longer exist. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used
+to determine the recoverable amount. A subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset, when the circumstances and events that led
+to the write-down or write-off cease to exist, is recognised as an income. The reversal is reduced by the amount that would have been recognised
+as depreciation had the write-down or write-off not occurred. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed.
+(o) Trade, bills and other payables
+Trade, bills and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would
+be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
+(p) Interest-bearing borrowings
+Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition,
+interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the
+consolidated income statement over the period of borrowings using the effective interest method.
+(q) Provisions and contingent liability
+A provision is recognised for liability of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a
+past event, when it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made.
+When it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is
+disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only
+be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability
+of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+cost, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision and oil and gas properties.
+(r) Revenue recognition
+Revenue arises in the course of the Group's ordinary activities, and increases in economic benefits in the form of inflows that result in an
+increase in equity, other than those relating to contributions from equity participants.
+The Group sells crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemical products, etc. Revenue is recognised according to the expected consideration
+amount, when a customer obtains control over the relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer obtains control of a promised
+asset, the Group shall consider indicators of the transfer of control, which include, but are not limited to, the Group has a present right to
+payment for the asset; the Group has transferred physical possession of the asset to the customer; the customer has the significant risks and
+rewards of ownership of the asset; the customer has accepted the asset.
+Sales of goods
+The amount of the reduction is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of
+cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then, to reduce
+the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its
+individual fair value less costs to disposal, or value in use, if determinable.
+If a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, or a hedged forecast
+transaction for a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability becomes a firm commitment for which fair value hedge accounting is applied, the
+entity removes that amount from the cash flow hedge reserve and include it directly in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the asset or
+the liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and hence it does not affect other comprehensive income.
+The gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income.
+The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an ineffective hedge is recognised in profit or loss.
+(ii) The cumulative change in fair value (present value) of the hedged item (i.e. the present value of the cumulative change in the hedged
+expected future cash flows) from inception of the hedge.
+(iii) Derecognition
+The Group derecognises a financial asset when: a) the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset expires; b) the Group
+transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; c) the financial asset has been
+transferred and the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, but the
+Group has not retained control.
+On derecognition of equity instruments at FVOCI, the difference between the carrying amounts and the sum of the consideration received
+and any accumulated gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income, is recognised in retained earnings. While on
+derecognition of other financial assets, this difference is recognised in profit or loss.
+(k) Financial liabilities
+The Group, at initial recognition, classifies financial liabilities as either financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost or financial
+liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
+The Group's financial liabilities are mainly financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, including trade accounts payable and bills payable,
+other payables, and loans, etc. These financial liabilities are initially measured at the amount of their fair value after deducting transaction costs
+and use the effective interest rate method for subsequent measurement.
+Where the present obligations of financial liabilities are completely or partially discharged, the Group derecognises these financial liabilities or
+discharged parts of obligations. The differences between the carrying amounts and the consideration received are recognised in profit or loss.
+(I) Determination of fair value for financial instruments
+If there is an active market for financial instruments, the quoted price in the active market is used to measure fair values of the financial
+instruments. If no active market exists for financial instruments, valuation techniques are used to measure fair values. In valuation, the Group
+adopts valuation techniques that are applicable in the current situation and have sufficient available data and other information to support it,
+and selects input values that are consistent with the asset or liability characteristics considered by market participants in the transaction of
+relevant assets or liabilities, and gives priority to relevant observable input values. Use of unobservable input values where relevant observable
+input values cannot be obtained or are not practicable.
+(m)Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
+Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or loss on
+remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss, except where the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting.
+Hedge accounting is a method which recognises the offsetting effects on profit or loss (or other comprehensive income) of changes in the fair
+values of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the same accounting period, to represent the effect of risk management activities.
+Hedged items are the items that expose the Group to risks of changes in future cash flows and that are designated as being hedged and that
+must be reliably measurable. The Group's hedged items include a forecast transaction that is settled with an undetermined future market price
+and exposes the Group to risk of variability in cash flows, etc.
+A hedging instrument is a designated derivative whose changes in cash flows are expected to offset changes in cash flows of the hedged item.

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2019
+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(m)Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting (Continued)
+The hedging relationship meets all of the following hedge effectiveness requirements:
+(i) There is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, which shares a risk and that gives rise to opposite
+changes in fair value that tend to offset each other.
+(ii) The effect of credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship.
+(iii) The hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the entity actually hedges
+and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the entity actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item. However, that designation
+does not reflect an imbalance between the weightings of the hedged item and the hedging instrument.
+Cash flow hedges
+Cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with all, or a component
+of, a recognised asset or liability (such as all or some future interest payments on variable-rate debt) or a highly probable forecast transaction,
+and could affect profit or loss. Hedge effectiveness is determined at the inception of the hedge relationship, and through periodic prospective
+effectiveness assessments to ensure that an economic relationship exists between the hedged item and hedging instrument.
+As long as a cash flow hedge meets the qualifying criteria for hedge accounting, the separate component of equity associated with the hedged
+item (cash flow hedge reserve) is adjusted to the lower of the following (in absolute amounts):
+(i) The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument from inception of the hedge; and
+For trade accounts receivable and bills receivable and financial assets at FVOCI related to revenue, the Group measures the loss allowance at
+an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

+(ii) Impairment losses on long-lived assets for the year ended 31 December 2019 primarily represent impairment losses recognised in the refining segment of RMB 245
+million (2018: RMB 353 million), the marketing and distribution segment of RMB 80 million (2018: RMB 264 million), the chemicals segment of RMB 17 million (2018:
+RMB 1,374 million) and the exploration and production ("E&P") segment of RMB 3 million (2018: RMB 4,274 million). The primary factor resulting in the E&P segment
+impairment loss in the prior year was downward revision of oil and gas reserve in certain fields. E&P segment determines recoverable amounts of properties, plant and
+equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities, which include significant judgments and assumptions. The recoverable amounts were determined based on the
+present values of the expected future cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.47% (2018: 10.47%). Further future downward revisions to the Group's
+oil price outlook would lead to further impairments which, in aggregate, are likely to be material. It is estimated that a general decrease of 5% in oil price, with all
+other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities by
+approximately RMB 184 million (2018: RMB 312 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in operating cost, with all other variables held constant, would
+result in additional impairment loss on the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB 180 million (2018:
+RMB 315 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in discount rate, with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on
+the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB 7 million (2018: less RMB 5 million).
+(i) Government grants for the years ended 31 December 2019 and 2018 primarily represent financial appropriation income and non-income tax refunds received from
+respective government agencies without conditions or other contingencies attached to the receipts of the grants.

+Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchase over the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities. The recoverable amounts of the
+above cash generating units are determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial
+budgets approved by management covering a one-year period and pre-tax discount rates primarily ranging from 11.0% to 11.9% (2018: 11.7% to
+12.3%). Cash flows beyond the one-year period are maintained constant. Based on the estimated recoverable amount, no major impairment loss
+was recognised.
+Key assumptions used for cash flow forecasts for these entities are the gross margin and sales volume. Management determined the budgeted gross
+margin based on the gross margin achieved in the period immediately before the budget period and management's expectation on the future trend
+of the prices of crude oil and petrochemical products. The sales volume was based on the production capacity and/or the sales volume in the period
+immediately before the budget period.

+The Group is defendant in certain lawsuits as well as the named party in other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management
+has assessed the likelihood of an unfavourable outcome of such contingencies, lawsuits or other proceedings and believes that any resulting
+liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, operating results or cash flows of the Group.
+Legal contingencies
+The Group paid normal routine pollutant discharge fees of approximately RMB 9,235 million in the consolidated financial statements for the year
+ended 31 December 2019 (2018: RMB 7,940 million).
+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect management's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature
+and extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development
+areas, whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv)
+changes in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is
+indeterminable due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective
+actions that may be required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot
+reasonably be estimated at present, and could be material.

+Movements in the deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:
+Periodically, management performed assessment on the probability that future taxable profit will be available over the period which the deferred tax
+assets can be realised or utilised. In assessing the probability, both positive and negative evidence was considered, including whether it is probable
+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the
+tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur. During the year ended 31 December 2019, write-down of deferred tax assets
+amounted to RMB 189 million (2018: RMB 188 million) (Note 10).
+As at 31 December 2019, certain subsidiaries of the Company did not recognise deferred tax of deductible loss carried forward of RMB 16,605
+million (2018: RMB 18,308 million), of which RMB 1,992 million (2018: RMB 2,437 million) was incurred for the year ended 31 December 2019,
+because it was not probable that the future taxable profits will be realised. These deductible losses carried forward of RMB 3,163 million, RMB 3,156
+million, RMB 5,938 million, RMB 2,356 million and RMB 1,992 million will expire in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023,2024 and after, respectively.

+In 2020, despite the increasing instability

+we expect the fundamentals sustaining

+remain unchanged. Domestic demand
+for energy and chemical products will
+be relatively weak in the first half, but
+the accumulated demand is expected
+to be released rapidly after outbreak.
+Considering oil-producing countries'

+Other than the amounts as disclosed above, the amounts of other financial assets and liabilities of the Group are substantially denominated in the

+Interest rate risk
+The Group's interest rate risk exposure arises primarily from its short-term and long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow
+subsidiaries. Debts bearing interest at variable rates and at fixed rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate
+risk respectively. The interest rates and terms of repayment of short-term and long-term debts, and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow
+subsidiaries of the Group are disclosed in Note 30.
+As at 31 December 2019, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in variable interest rates, with all other variables held
+constant, would decrease/increase the Group's profit for the year by approximately RMB 352 million (2018: decrease/increase by approximately
+RMB 424 million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change of interest rates was applied to the Group's debts
+outstanding at the balance sheet date with exposure to cash flow interest rate risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2018.
+Commodity price risk

+A 5 percent strengthening/weakening of RMB against the following currencies at 31 December 2019 and 2018 would have increased/decreased

+had occurred at the balance sheet date and had been applied to the foreign currency balances to which the Group has significant exposure as stated
+above, and that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2018.

+Currency risk
+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products and
+chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the Group.
+The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps contracts, to manage a portion of this risk.
+Currency risk arises on financial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in which they are measured. The
+Group's currency risk exposure primarily relates to short-term and long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries
+denominated in USD and lease liabilities denominated in Singapore Dollar ("SGD"). The Group enters into foreign exchange contracts to manage its
+currency risk exposure.

+As at 31 December 2019, the Group had certain commodity contracts of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products designated as
+qualified cash flow hedges and economic hedges. As at 31 December 2019, the fair value of such derivative hedging financial instruments is
+derivative financial assets of RMB 788 million (2018: RMB 7,844 million) and derivative financial liabilities of RMB 2,728 million (2018: RMB
+13,568 million).
+As at 31 December 2019, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of USD 10 per barrel in basic price of derivative financial instruments,
+with all other variables held constant, would impact the fair value of derivative financial instruments, which would increase/decrease the Group's
+profit for the year by approximately RMB 3,134 million (2018: decrease/increase RMB 197 million), and decrease/increase the Group's other
+reserves by approximately RMB 4,289 million (2018: increase/decrease RMB 6,850 million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming
+that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the change was applied to the Group's derivative financial instruments at that
+date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2018.

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+Annual Report 2019 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+196
+All of the entity's other receivables (Note 28) are considered to have low credit risk, and the loss allowance recognised during the period was
+therefore limited to 12 months expected losses. The Group considers 'low credit risk' for other receivables when they have a low risk of default
+and the issuer has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term.
+The detailed analysis of trade accounts receivable and bills receivable and financial assets at FVOCI, based on which the Group generated its
+payment profile is listed in Notes 25 and 26.
+The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before 31 December 2019 or 1 January 2019,
+respectively, and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current
+and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables.
+To measure the expected credit losses, trade accounts receivable and bills receivable and financial assets at FVOCI have been grouped based on
+shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due.
+198
+For trade accounts receivable and bills receivable and financial assets at FVOCI, the Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring
+expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade accounts receivable and bills receivable and financial assets at
+FVOCI.
+The Group's primary type of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss model is trade accounts receivable and bills receivable,
+financial assets at FVOCI and other receivables.
+(ii) Impairment of financial assets
+The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,
+derivative financial assets, trade accounts receivable and bills receivable, financial assets at FVOCI and other receivables, represent the Group's
+maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets.
+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
+obligations, and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions (including structured deposits) and receivables
+from customers. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial
+institutions in the PRC with acceptable credit ratings. The majority of the Group's trade accounts receivable relate to sales of petroleum and
+chemical products to related parties and third parties operating in the petroleum and chemical industries. No single customer accounted for
+greater than 10% of total trade accounts receivable at 31 December 2019, except the amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow
+subsidiaries. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of the Group's customers' financial condition and generally does not require
+collateral on trade accounts receivable. The Group maintains an impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within
+management's expectations.
+(i) Risk management
+Credit risk
+The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, and set appropriate risk limits and
+controls to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
+conditions and the Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management controls and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and
+constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. Internal audit department undertakes both regular
+and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Group's audit committee.
+The Group's cash deposits are placed only with large financial institutions with acceptable credit ratings, and there is no material impairment
+loss identified.

+Liquidity risk
+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach to managing
+liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed
+conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. Management prepares monthly cash flow budget
+to ensure that the Group will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group arranges and negotiates
+financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the Group's liquidity risk.

+Inter-segment sales
+In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of
+resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has identified the following five reportable segments. No operating segments have been
+aggregated to form the following reportable segments.
+(i) Exploration and production, which explores and develops oil fields, produces crude oil and natural gas and sells such products to the refining
+segment of the Group and external customers.
+(ii) Refining, which processes and purifies crude oil, that is sourced from the exploration and production segment of the Group and external
+suppliers, and manufactures and sells petroleum products to the chemicals and marketing and distribution segments of the Group and external
+customers.
+(iii) Marketing and distribution, which owns and operates oil depots and service stations in the PRC, and distributes and sells refined petroleum
+products (mainly gasoline and diesel) in the PRC through wholesale and retail sales networks.
+(iv) Chemicals, which manufactures and sells petrochemical products, derivative petrochemical products and other chemical products mainly to
+external customers.
+(v) Corporate and others, which largely comprises the trading activities of the import and export companies of the Group and research and
+development undertaken by other subsidiaries.
+The segments were determined primarily because the Group manages its exploration and production, refining, marketing and distribution,
+chemicals, and corporate and others businesses separately. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and/
+or distribute distinct products with different production processes and due to their distinct operating and gross margin characteristics.

+(1) Information of reportable segmental revenues, profits or losses, assets and liabilities
+The Group's chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance and allocates resources to its operating segments on an operating profit
+basis, without considering the effects of finance costs or investment income. Inter-segment transfer pricing is based on the market price or cost
+plus an appropriate margin, as specified by the Group's policy.
+Assets and liabilities dedicated to a particular segment's operations are included in that segment's total assets and liabilities. Segment assets
+include all tangible and intangible assets, except for interest in associates and joint ventures, investments, deferred tax assets, cash and cash
+equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions and other unallocated assets. Segment liabilities exclude short-term debts, income tax
+payable, long-term debts, loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, deferred tax liabilities and other unallocated liabilities.

+In early 2020, the outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") has significant impacts on the consumption of refined oil products and sales
+of chemical products of the Group. The Group has taken a series of strong and effective measures, and has coordinated the prevention and control
+of the COVID-19 and the resumption of work and production with all-out efforts to minimize its impact.
+44 EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE
+If the costs of inventories become higher than their net realisable values, an allowance for diminution in value of inventories is recognised. Net
+realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated
+costs necessary to make the sale. Management bases the estimates on all available information, including the current market prices of the finished
+goods and raw materials, and historical operating costs. If the actual selling prices were to be lower or the costs of completion were to be higher
+than estimated, the actual allowance for diminution in value of inventories could be higher than estimated.
+Beginning of year
+(billion cubic feet)
+Except for the above items, the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair values
+at 31 December 2019 and 2018.
+43 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
+The Group's financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the
+preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Management bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on
+various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily
+apparent from other sources. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts,
+circumstances and conditions change.
+The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of such policies and the sensitivity of
+reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the consolidated financial statements. The
+significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 2. Management believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant
+judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
+Oil and gas properties and reserves
+The accounting for the exploration and production's oil and gas activities is subject to accounting rules that are unique to the oil and gas industry.
+There are two methods to account for oil and gas business activities, the successful efforts method and the full cost method. The Group has elected
+to use the successful efforts method. The successful efforts method reflects the volatility that is inherent in exploring for mineral resources in that
+costs of unsuccessful exploratory efforts are charged to expense as they are incurred. These costs primarily include dry hole costs, seismic costs
+and other exploratory costs. Under the full cost method, these costs are capitalised and written-off or depreciated over time.
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have to be
+met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as “proved”. Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated at least
+annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels change from
+year to year, the estimates of proved and proved developed reserves also change. This change is considered a change in estimate for accounting
+purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in relation to depreciation rates. Oil and gas reserves have a direct impact on the assessment of
+the recoverability of the carrying amounts of oil and gas properties reported in the financial statements. If proved reserves estimates are revised
+downwards, earnings could be affected by changes in depreciation expense or an immediate write-down of the property's carrying amount.
+Future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties are estimated with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration the
+anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with industry practices in similar geographic area, including estimation of economic
+life of oil and gas properties, technology and price level. The present values of these estimated future dismantlement costs are capitalised as oil and
+gas properties with equivalent amounts recognised as provisions for dismantlement costs.
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment loss
+and future dismantlement costs. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based on volumes
+produced and reserves.

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2019
+43 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Continued)
+Impairment for long-lived assets
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered “impaired", and an
+impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are reviewed
+periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for impairment
+whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has
+occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. The recoverable
+amount is the greater of the net selling price and the value in use. It is difficult to precisely estimate selling price because quoted market prices for
+the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining the value in use, expected cash flows generated by the asset or
+the cash-generating units are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to level of sale volume, selling price,
+amount of operating costs and discount rate. Management uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable
+approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sale volume, selling
+price, amount of operating costs and discount rate.
+Depreciation
+Property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the
+assets, after taking into account the estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets at least annually in order
+to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group's historical
+experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if
+there are significant changes from previous estimates.
+Measurement of expected credit losses
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past events,
+current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Group regularly monitors and reviews the assumptions used for estimating
+expected credit losses.

+first-day-of-the-month price adjusted for differential for oil and gas during the twelve-month period before the ending date of the period covered by
+the report to year-end quantities of estimated net proved reserves. Future price changes are limited to those provided by contractual arrangements in
+existence at the end of each reporting year. Future development and production costs are those estimated future expenditures necessary to develop and
+produce year-end estimated proved reserves based on year-end cost indices, assuming continuation of year-end economic conditions. Estimated future
+income taxes are calculated by applying appropriate year-end statutory tax rates to estimated future pre-tax net cash flows, less the tax basis of related
+assets. Discounted future net cash flows are calculated using 10% discount factors. This discounting requires a year-by-year estimate of when the future
+expenditure will be incurred and when the reserves will be produced.
+The information provided does not represent management's estimate of the Group's and its equity method investments' expected future cash flows or
+value of proved oil and gas reserves. Estimates of proved reserve quantities are imprecise and change over time as new information becomes available.
+Moreover, probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the calculations. The arbitrary valuation requires
+assumptions as to the timing and amount of future development and production costs. The calculations are made for the years ended 31 December
+2019 and 2018 and should not be relied upon as an indication of the Group's and its equity method investments' future cash flows or value of its oil
+and gas reserves.

+The Group has not developed an internal valuation model necessary to estimate the fair values of loans from Sinopec Group Company and
+fellow subsidiaries as it is not considered practicable to estimate their fair values because the cost of obtaining discount and borrowing rates for
+comparable borrowings would be excessive based on the Reorganisation of the Group, the Group's existing capital structure and the terms of the
+borrowings.

+Fair value
+The fair values of the Group's financial instruments carried at other than fair value (other than long-term indebtedness and investments in
+unquoted equity securities) approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term
+indebtedness are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market interest rates offered to the Group for debt with substantially
+the same characteristic and maturities range from 2.37% to 4.90% (2018: 2.76% to 4.90%). The following table presents the carrying amount
+and fair value of the Group's long-term indebtedness other than loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries at 31 December
+2019 and 2018:
+The disclosures of the fair value estimates, and their methods and assumptions of the Group's financial instruments, are made to comply
+with the requirements of IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements and related
+notes. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Group using market information and valuation methodologies considered
+appropriate. However, considerable judgement is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the
+estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Group could realise in a current market exchange. The use of
+different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

+THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES COMPLYING WITH CASS AND IFRS (UNAUDITED)
+(15)
+Other than the differences in the classifications of certain financial statements captions and the accounting for the items described below, there are no
+material differences between the Group's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting policies complying with CASS
+and IFRS. The reconciliation presented below is included as supplemental information, is not required as part of the basic financial statements and
+does not include differences related to classification, presentation or disclosures. Such information has not been subject to independent audit or review.
+The major differences are:
+Under CASs, grants from the government are credited to capital reserve if required by relevant governmental regulations. Under IFRS, government
+grants relating to the purchase of fixed assets are recognised as deferred income and are transferred to the income statement over the useful life of
+these assets.
+(ii) SAFETY PRODUCTION FUND
+Under CASS, safety production fund should be recognised in profit or loss with a corresponding increase in reserve according to PRC regulations.
+Such reserve is reduced for expenses incurred for safety production purposes or, when safety production related fixed assets are purchased, is
+reduced by the purchased cost with a corresponding increase in the accumulated depreciation. Such fixed assets are not depreciated thereafter.
+Under IFRS, payments are expensed as incurred, or capitalised as fixed assets and depreciated according to applicable depreciation methods.
+Effects of major differences between the shareholders' equity under CASS and the total equity under IFRS are analysed as follows:

+2018
+Most crude oil and a small portion of
+natural gas produced by the Company
+were internally used for refining and
+chemical production, with the remaining
+sold to external customers. In 2019,
+the turnover from crude oil, natural
+gas and other upstream products sold
+externally amounted to RMB 111.1
+billion, an increase of 18.8% over 2018.
+The change was mainly due to increases
+in natural gas sales volume and prices
+as the result of promoting natural gas
+production-supply-storage-sale system,
+and actively expanding market share.
+In 2019, petroleum products (mainly
+consisting of refined oil products and
+other refined petroleum products) sold
+by Refining Segment and Marketing and
+Distribution Segment achieved external
+sales revenues of RMB 1,535.2 billion
+(accounting for 51.8% of the Company's
+turnover and other operating revenues),
+representing a decrease of 1.5% over
+2018, mainly due to the decrease in
+petroleum products' prices. The sales
+revenue of gasoline, diesel and kerosene
+was RMB 1,303.6 billion, representing
+a decrease of 1.1% over 2018, and
+accounting for 85% of the total sales
+revenue of petroleum products. Turnover
+of other refined petroleum products
+was RMB 231.6 billion, representing a
+decrease of 3.4% compared with 2018,
+accounting for 15% of the total sales
+revenue of petroleum products.
+The Company's external sales revenue
+of chemical products was RMB 425.5
+billion, representing a decrease of 7%
+over 2018, accounting for 14.3% of
+the Company's total turnover and other
+operating revenues. This was mainly
+due to the decrease in price of chemical
+products, which resulting from the
+increase of supply in chemical market.
+(2) Operating expenses
+In 2019, the Company's operating
+expenses was RMB 2,880 billion,
+increased by 2.5% compared with 2018.
+The operating expenses mainly consisted
+of the following:
+Purchased crude oil, products and
+operating supplies and expenses was
+RMB 2,380.9 billion, representing an
+increase of 3.8% over the same period of
+2018, accounting for 82.7% of the total
+operating expenses, of which:
+MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
+Crude oil purchasing expenses was RMB
+681.2 billion, representing a decrease
+of 2.9% over the same period of 2018.
+Throughput of crude oil purchased
+externally in 2019 was 228.74 million
+tonnes (excluding the volume processed
+for third parties), representing an
+increase of 0.7% over the same period
+of 2018. The average cost of crude oil
+purchased externally was RMB 3,326 per
+tonne, representing a decrease by 3.6%
+over 2018.
+The Company's purchasing expense
+related to trading activities was RMB
+738.3 billion, representing an increase of
+12.6% over the same period of 2018.
+The Company's other purchasing
+expenses was RMB 596.5 billion,
+representing an increase of 2.7% over
+the same period of 2018.
+Selling, general and administrative
+expenses was RMB 55.3 billion,
+representing a decrease of 15.7%
+over 2018. This was mainly because
+the company significantly reduced
+non-operating costs, and adjusted
+accounting of some of the gas station,
+land and other rental expenses to
+depreciation and interests expense as
+required by the New Leasing Rules.
+Depreciation, depletion and amortisation
+was RMB 108.8 billion, representing a
+decrease of 1.1% compared with 2018.
+That was mainly due to the depletion of
+oil and gas assets decreased as a result
+of the Company's proved reserves of
+crude oil and natural gas increased.
+Exploration expenses was RMB 10.5
+billion, representing a decrease of 2.2%
+year on year.
+Personnel expenses was RMB 81.5
+billion, representing an increase of 4.8%
+over 2018.
+The Company's purchasing expenses
+of refined oil products was RMB 364.9
+billion, representing an increase of 2.6%
+over the same period of 2018.
+As a percentage of
+consolidated operating
+revenue after elimination
+of inter-segment sales
+Year ended 31 December
+2018
+and Analysis
+Taxes other than income tax was RMB
+242.5 billion, representing a decrease
+of 1.6% compared with 2018. That
+was mainly due to the decrease of
+RMB 3.2 billion in urban maintenance
+and construction tax and education
+surcharges resulting from the decrease of
+value added tax rate.
+The following table shows the operating revenues by each segment, the contribution of external sales and inter-segment sales as a percentage
+of operating revenues before elimination of inter-segment sales, and the contribution of external sales as a percentage of consolidated operating
+revenues (i.e. after elimination of inter-segment sales) for the periods indicated.

+The Company manages its operations through four business segments, namely exploration and production segment, refining segment, marketing
+and distribution segment and chemicals segment, and corporate and others. Unless otherwise specified, the inter-segment transactions have not

+Report of the Board of Directors
+REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (CONTINUED)
+The Company enjoys a favourable positioning
+with its operations located close to the
+consumer markets. Along with the steady
+growth in the Chinese economy, sales volume
+of both oil products and chemical products
+of the Company has been increasing steadily
+over the years; through continuous and
+specialised marketing efforts, the Company's
+capability in international operations and
+market expansion has been further enhanced.
+The Company owns a team of professionals
+and expertise engaged in the production
+of oil and gas, operation of refineries and
+chemical plants, as well as marketing
+activities. The Company applies outstanding
+fine management measures with its
+remarkable capabilities in management
+of operations, and enjoys a favourable
+operational cost advantage in its downstream
+businesses.
+The Company has formulated a
+well-established technology system and
+mechanism, and owns competent teams
+specialised in R&D covering a wide range of
+subjects; the four platforms for technology
+advancement is taking shape, which includes
+exploration and development of oil and
+gas, refining, petrochemicals and strategic
+emerging technology. With its overall
+technologies reaching state of the art level in
+the global arena, and some of them taking
+the lead globally, the Company enjoys a
+strong technical strength.
+The Company always attaches great
+importance to fulfilling social responsibilities,
+and carries out the green and low carbon
+development strategy to pursue a sustainable
+development. Moreover, the Company enjoys
+an outstanding "Sinopec" brand name, plays
+an important role in the national economy
+and is a renowned and reputable company in
+China.
+25 RISK FACTORS
+In the course of its production and
+operations, the Company will actively take
+various measures to circumvent operational
+risks. However, in practice, it may not be
+possible to prevent the occurrence of all
+risks and uncertainties described below.
+Risks with regard to the variations from
+macroeconomic situation: The business
+results of the Company are closely related to
+China's and global economic situation. The
+development of Chinese economy has entered
+New Normal. Although various countries have
+adopted different kinds of macroeconomic
+policies to eliminate negative effects caused
+by lower growth of global economy, the
+turnaround of economic recovery still
+remains uncertain. The Company's business
+could also be adversely affected by other
+factors such as the impact on export due to
+trade protectionism from certain countries,
+impact on import which is likely caused by
+regional trade agreements, and negative
+impact on the investment of overseas oil
+and gas exploration and development and
+refining and chemical storage projects which
+results from the uncertainty of geopolitics,
+international crude oil price and etc.
+Risks with regard to the cyclical effects
+from the industry: The majority of the
+Company's operating income comes from
+the sales of refined oil products and
+petrochemical products, and part of those
+businesses and their related products are
+cyclic and are sensitive to macro-economy,
+cyclic changes of regional and global
+economy, the changes of the production
+capacity and output, demand of consumers,
+prices and supply of the raw materials, as
+well as prices and supply of the alternative
+products etc. Although the Company is
+an integrated company with upstream,
+midstream and downstream operations, it
+I can only counteract the adverse influences of
+industry cycle to some extent.
+Risks from the macroeconomic policies
+and government regulation: Although the
+Chinese government is gradually liberalizing
+the market entry regulations on petroleum
+and petrochemicals sector, the petroleum
+and petrochemical industries in China are
+still subject to entry regulations to a certain
+degree, which include: issuing licenses in
+relation to exploration and development of
+crude oil and natural gas, issuing business
+licenses for trading crude oil and refined
+oil, setting caps for retail prices of gasoline,
+diesel and other oil products, the imposing
+of the special oil income levy, formulation
+of refined oil import and export quotas and
+procedures, formulation of safety, quality
+and environmental protection standards and
+formulation of energy conservation policies.
+In addition, the changes which have occurred
+or might occur in macroeconomic and
+industry policies such as the fully opening
+up of exploration and mining rights, the
+opening up of crude oil import licenses
+and the right of tenure, removing the
+restriction of share ratio of refining projects
+to foreign enterprises, further improvement
+in pricing mechanism of refined oil
+products, cancellation of wholesale right and
+decentralization of retail right of refined oil
+products, and gas stations investment are
+fully opened to foreign investment, reforming
+and improvement in pricing mechanism of
+natural gas, cost supervision of gas pipeline
+and access to third party, and reforming
+in resource tax and environmental tax, will
+cause effects on our business operations.
+Such changes might further intensify market
+competition and have certain effect on the
+operations and profitability of the Company.
+Risks with regard to the changes from
+environmental legislation requirements:
+Our production activities generate waste
+liquids, gases and solids. The Company has
+built up the supporting effluent treatment
+systems to prevent and reduce the pollution
+to the environment. However, the relevant
+government authorities may issue and
+implement much stricter environmental
+protection laws and regulations, adopt much

+stricter environment protection standards.
+Under such situations, the Company
+may increase expenses in relation to the
+environment protection accordingly.
+Risks with regard to the external purchase
+of crude oil: A significant amount of crude
+oil as needed by the Company is satisfied
+through external purchases. In recent years,
+especially influenced by the mismatch
+between supply and demand of crude oil,
+geopolitics, global economic growth and
+other factors, the prices of crude oil fluctuate
+sharply. Additionally, the supply of crude
+oil may even be interrupted due to some
+extreme major incidents in certain regions.
+Although the Company has taken flexible
+countermeasures, it may not fully avoid risks
+associated with any significant fluctuation
+of international crude oil prices and sudden
+disruption of supply of crude oil from certain
+regions.

+implemented a strict HSSE management
+system as an effort to avoid such risks as
+far as possible. Meanwhile, the main assets
+and inventories of the Company as well as
+the possibility of damage to a third party
+have been insured. However, such measures
+may not shield the Company from financial
+losses or adverse impact resulting from such
+contingencies.
+Investment risks: Petroleum and chemical
+sector is a capital intensive industry.
+Although the Company has adopted a
+prudent investment strategy, and as required
+by the new procedure and management of
+investment decision-making issued in 2017,
+conducted rigorous feasibility study on
+each investment project, which consists of
+special verifications in raw material market,
+technical scheme, profitability, safety and
+environmental protection, legal compliance,
+etc., certain investment risks will still exist
+and expected returns may not be achieved
+due to major changes in factors such as
+market environment, prices of equipment
+and raw materials, and construction period
+during the implementation of the projects.
+Risks with regard to overseas business
+development and management: The
+Company engages in oil and gas exploration,
+refining and chemical, warehouse logistics
+and international trading businesses in
+some regions outside China. The Company's
+overseas businesses and assets are subject
+to the jurisdiction of the host country's laws
+and regulations. In light of the complicated
+factors such as imbalance of global economy,
+competitiveness of industry and trade
+structure, exclusiveness of regional trading
+blocs, polarisation of benefits distribution
+in trade, and politicisation of economic and
+trade issues, including sanctions, barriers to
+entry, instability in the financial and taxation
+policies, contract defaults, tax dispute, the
+Company's risks with regard to overseas
+business development and management
+could be increased.
+Currency risks: At present, China implements
+an administered floating exchange rate
+regime based on market supply and
+demand which is regulated with reference
+to a basket of currencies in terms of the
+exchange rate of Renminbi. As the Company
+purchases a significant portion of crude oil
+in foreign currency which is based on US
+dollar-denominated prices, the realized price
+of crude oil is based on international crude
+oil price. Despite the fact that, the price
+of the domestic refined oil products will
+change as the exchange rate of the Renminbi
+changes according to the pricing mechanism
+for the domestic refined oil products, and
+the price of other domestic petrochemical
+products will also be influenced by the price
+of the imported products, which to a large
+extent, smooths the impact of the Renminbi
+exchange rate on the processing and sales
+of the Company's crude oil refined products.
+However, the fluctuation of the Renminbi
+exchange rate will still have an effect on the
+income of the upstream sector.
+Cyber-security risks: the Company has a
+well-established network safety system,
+information infrastructure and operation
+system, and network safety information
+platform, devotes significant resources to
+protecting our digital infrastructure and
+data against cyber-attacks, if our systems
+against cyber-security risk prove to be
+ineffective, we could be adversely affected
+by, among other things, disruptions to our
+business operations, and loss of proprietary
+information, including intellectual property,
+financial information and employer
+and customer data, injuries to people,
+property, environment and reputation. As
+cyber-security attacks continue to evolve,
+we may be required to expend additional
+resources to enhance our protective
+measures against cyber-security breaches.
+By Order of the Board
+Zhang Yuzhuo
+Risks from the uncertainties of obtaining
+additional oil and gas resources: The future
+sustainable development of the Company
+is partly dependent to a certain extent on
+our abilities in continuously discovering
+or acquiring additional oil and natural
+gas resources. To obtain additional oil
+and natural gas resources, the Company
+faces some inherent risks associated with
+exploration and development and/or with
+acquisition activities, and the Company has
+to invest a large amount of money with no
+guarantee of certainty. If the Company fails
+to acquire additional resources through
+further exploration, development and
+acquisition to increase the reserves of crude
+oil and natural gas, the oil and natural gas
+reserves and production of the Company
+may decline over time which may adversely
+affect the Company's financial situation and
+operation performance.

+KEY AUDIT MATTERS
+In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the
+other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
+misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to
+report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
+RESPONSIBILITIES OF MANAGEMENT AND THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+Management of Sinopec Corp. is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with the CASS,
+and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
+misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
+In preparing these financial statements, management is responsible for assessing Sinopec Corp.'s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing,
+as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intend to liquidate Sinopec
+Corp. or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
+Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing Sinopec Corp.'s financial reporting process.
+AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether these financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether
+due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a
+guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
+fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
+users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
+As part of an audit in accordance with CSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
+•
+Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
+•
+Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.
+Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by
+management.
+Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether
+a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on Sinopec Corp.'s ability to continue as a going
+concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in
+these financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained
+up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause Sinopec Corp. to cease to continue as a going concern.
+Evaluate the overall presentation (including the disclosures), structure and content of the financial statements, and whether the financial statements
+represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
+Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Sinopec Corp. to
+express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit.
+We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
+We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit
+findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

+Financial Statements (PRC)
+Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit
+procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
+detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
+omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
+Management of Sinopec Corp. is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information included in 2019 annual
+report of Sinopec Corp. other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
+OTHER INFORMATION
+REPORT OF THE PRC AUDITOR (CONTINUED)
+Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current
+period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do
+not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
+The key audit matter identified in our audit is “Recoverability of the carrying amount of fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities”.
+Key Audit Matter
+Recoverability of the carrying amount of fixed assets relating to oil
+and gas producing activities
+Refer to Note 14 "Fixed assets" and Note 56 "Principal accounting
+estimates and judgements" to the financial statements.
+Low crude oil prices gave rise to possible indication that the carrying
+amount of fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities as at
+31 December 2019 might be impaired. The Group has adopted value
+in use as the respective recoverable amounts of fixed assets relating
+to oil and gas producing activities, which involved key estimations or
+assumptions including:
+Future crude oil prices;
+Future production profiles;
+Future cost profiles; and
+Discount rates.
+Because of the significance of the carrying amount of fixed assets
+relating to oil and gas producing activities as at 31 December 2019,
+together with the use of significant estimations or assumptions in
+determining their respective value in use, we had placed our audit
+emphasis on this matter.
+89,642
+How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
+In auditing the respective value in use calculations of fixed assets relating to

+Changes in Share Capital and Shareholdings
+Dear Shareholders and Friends:
+On behalf of the Board of Directors, the
+management, and our entire staff, I would like to
+express my sincere gratitude to our shareholders
+and the community for your interest and
+support.
+2020 was truly an unprecedented year.
+Faced with the global COVID-19 pandemic
+and a severe economic recession worldwide,
+international oil prices endured a historic slide
+as market demand sharply contracted. Under a
+complex web of risks and problems, instability
+and unpredictability were evidently growing.
+In the wake of this extraordinary and severe
+impact, the Company's Board of Directors
+maintained a steady grip on all developments,
+while management worked closely with all staff
+to focus on major issues and areas such as
+system optimization, baseline risk prevention
+and control and turning risks into opportunities,
+as well as to stabilize basic production and
+operations, go all out to carry out a series of
+campaigns to tide over difficulties, and promote
+the company's reform, thus achieving industry-
+leading results.
+In accordance with International Financial
+Reporting Standards, our turnover and other
+operating revenues reached RMB 2.1 trillion,
+while profit attributable to shareholders of the
+Company amounted to RMB 33.096 billion.
+The Company also enjoyed a cash flow from
+operating activities totalling RMB 167.518
+billion with a year-on-year increase of 9.0%,
+while the liabilities to assets ratio at the end of
+the period was 49.08%. The Company remained
+in a solid financial position with a strong cash
+flow and robust capability to strengthen anti-risk
+capability. In view of the Company's profitability,
+return to shareholders, and needs for future
+development, the Board of Directors proposed
+the payment of a final dividend of RMB 0.13 per
+share. Taking into account the interim special
+dividend of RMB 0.07 per share, the total
+dividend for the year was RMB 0.20 per share,
+with a dividend payout ratio of 73.2% ensuring
+a stable dividend payout level.
+Over the past year, the Company's has achieved
+new progress across all business segments.
+The upstream business promoted high-quality
+exploration and profitable development.
+As natural gas reserves steadily increased,
+production and sales hit a record high. Further,
+as the oil and gas break-even point steadily
+declined, stabilizing oil output while increasing
+gas output has led to marked achievements
+with cost reduction. The refining and marketing
+businesses leveraged efforts to tackle tough
+problems and increased the production of
+marketable and value-added products. With low-
+sulfur fuel oil as a market leader, advantages
+in domestic refined oil market continued to be
+strengthened. Meanwhile, the Company sped up
+the construction of integrated service stations,
+innovated marketing models, and continued to
+develop the non-fuel business on a sound basis.
+The chemical business deepened structural
+CHAIRMAN'S ADDRESS
+adjustments, increased the proportion of three
+major synthetic raw materials products with high
+added value, and maintained a stable market
+share for major products as well as a steady and
+upward business development. To accelerate
+transformation and upgrading, major oil and
+gas engineering projects were introduced, and
+the construction of refining and chemical bases
+also rapidly progressed. Further, the Company
+proactively expanded new energy business and
+pushed forward the application of hydrogen
+and the deployment of battery charging and
+swapping stations. At the same time, the sales
+of oil and gas pipelines were completed. Under
+these steps, solid progress was made in overall
+business readjustment. The Company also
+made positive progress in the research and
+development of key technologies and equipment.
+Of note, the Company's comprehensive patent
+advantages continued to rank at the top among
+domestic enterprises, which underlines the
+role of technological innovation in supporting
+development.
+Over the past year, the Company has
+proactively assumed social responsibility with
+new contributions. Facing the outbreak of the
+COVID-19 pandemic, the Company donated
+funds and goods to support the frontline fight
+against the pandemic as well as adjusted its
+production to provide pandemic-countering
+items by leveraging its industrial advantages.
+Notably, the world's largest melt-blown cloth
+production facility was built up from scratch
+within a short time, a stable supply in the oil
+and gas market was ensured, thus promoting
+production resumption along the industrial
+chain from upstream to downstream operations.
+These achievements received wide community
+recognition. Additionally, to fulfill our social
+responsibilities, the Company focused its
+efforts on targeted poverty alleviation, with
+implementation of poverty alleviation measures
+in terms of industry, education and consumption,
+objectives to help poverty alleviation have been
+achieved on all fronts. Finally, the Company put
+forth great effort to provide clean energy for
+society, such as commissioning strategic studies
+on carbon emissions peak and carbon neutrality
+and adhering to a development path that is
+green, low carbon, and sustainable.

+(c) The impairment assessment method and provision accrual on investment
+For the year ended 31 December 2020
+(5) Long-term equity investments (Continued)
+(b) Investment in joint ventures and associates (Continued)
+The Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses after making appropriate adjustments to align the accounting policies
+or accounting periods with those of the Group based on the fair values of the investee's net identifiable assets at the time of acquisition.
+Under the equity accounting method, unrealised profits and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and its associates or joint
+ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associates or joint ventures. Unrealised losses resulting from transactions
+between the Group and its associates or joint ventures are fully recognised in the event that there is an evidence of impairment.
+The Group discontinues recognising its share of net losses of the investee after the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment
+and any long-term interest that is in substance forms part of the Group's net investment in the associate or the joint venture is reduced to
+zero, except to the extent that the Group has an obligation to assume additional losses. However, if the Group has incurred obligations for
+additional losses and the conditions on recognition of provision are satisfied in accordance with the accounting standard on contingencies,
+the Group continues recognising the investment losses and the provision. Where net profits are subsequently made by the associate or joint
+venture, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised.
+The Group adjusts the carrying amount of the long-term equity investment for changes in owners' equity of the investee other than those
+arising from net profits or losses and other comprehensive income, and recognises the corresponding adjustment in capital reserve.
+The impairment assessment and provision accrual on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are stated in Note 3(12).
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+After the acquisition of the investment, the Group recognises its share of the investee's net profits or losses and other comprehensive income
+as investment income or losses and other comprehensive income, and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment accordingly. Once the
+investee declares any cash dividends or profits distributions, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced by that attributable to the
+Group.
+Annual Report 2020 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+An investment in a subsidiary acquired otherwise than through a business combination is initially recognised at actual purchase cost if the
+Group acquires the investment by cash, or at the fair value of the equity securities issued if an investment is acquired by issuing equity
+securities, or at the value stipulated in the investment contract or agreement if an investment is contributed by investors.
+The Group's accounting treatments when adopting the equity method include:
+The initial cost of investment in joint ventures and associates is stated at the consideration paid except for cash dividends or profits
+distributions declared but unpaid at the time of acquisition and therefore included in the consideration paid should be deducted if the
+investment is made in cash. Under the circumstances that the long-term investment is obtained through non-monetary asset exchange, the
+initial cost of the investment is stated at the fair value of the assets exchanged if the transaction has commercial substance, the difference
+between the fair value of the assets exchanged and its carrying amount is charged to profit or loss; or stated at the carrying amount of the
+assets exchanged if the transaction lacks commercial substance.
+An investment in a joint ventures or an associate is accounted for using the equity method, unless the investment is classified as held for
+sale.
+An associate is the investee that the Group has significant influence on their financial and operating policies. Significant influence represents
+the right to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over the establishment
+of these policies. The Group generally considers the following circumstances in determining whether it can exercise significant influence
+over the investee: whether there is representative appointed to the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the investee; whether
+to participate in the investee's policy-making process; whether there are significant transactions with the investees; whether there is
+management personnel sent to the investee; whether to provide critical technical information to the investee.
+A joint venture is an incorporated entity over which the Group, based on legal form, contractual terms and other facts and circumstances,
+has joint control with the other parties to the joint venture and rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually
+agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of
+the Group and the parties sharing control.
+(b) Investment in joint ventures and associates
+For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not involving enterprises under common control, the initial
+investment cost comprises the aggregate of the fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued
+by the Company, in exchange for control of the acquiree. For a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination not
+involving enterprises under common control, if it is achieved in stages, the initial cost comprises the carrying value of previously-held equity
+investment in the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date, and the additional investment cost at the acquisition date.
+The initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment obtained through a business combination involving entities under common
+control is the Company's share of the carrying amount of the subsidiary's equity at the combination date. The difference between the initial
+investment cost and the carrying amounts of the consideration given is adjusted to share premium in capital reserve. If the balance of the
+share premium is insufficient, any excess is adjusted to retained earnings.
+(6) Leases
+In the Company's separate financial statements, long-term equity investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the cost method.
+Except for cash dividends or profits distributions declared but not yet distributed that have been included in the price or consideration paid
+in obtaining the investments, the Company recognises its share of the cash dividends or profit distributions declared by the investee as
+investment income irrespective of whether these represent the net profit realised by the investee before or after the investment. Investments
+in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(12)) in the balance sheet. At initial recognition, such investments are
+measured as follows:
+Where the initial investment cost of a long-term equity investment exceeds the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable
+net assets at the date of acquisition, the investment is initially recognised at the initial investment cost. Where the initial investment cost is
+less than the Group's interest in the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets at the time of acquisition, the investment is initially
+recognised at the investor's share of the fair value of the investee's identifiable net assets, and the difference is charged to profit or loss.
+A lease is a contract that a lessor transfers the right to use an identified asset for a period of time to a lessee in exchange for consideration.
+(a) As Lessee
+(7) Fixed assets and construction in progress
+Right-of-use assets of the Group mainly comprise land. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost which comprises the amount of the initial
+measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, any initial direct costs incurred by the
+lessee, less any lease incentives received. The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the
+lease term on a straight-line basis. When the recoverable amount of a right-of-use asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount
+is reduced to the recoverable amount.
+(a) Investment in subsidiaries
+The subsequent costs including the cost of replacing part of an item of fixed assets are recognised in the carrying amount of the item if the
+recognition criteria are satisfied, and the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of fixed
+assets are recognised in profit or loss as incurred.
+Where the individual component parts of an item of fixed asset have different useful lives or provide benefits to the Group in different patterns
+thus necessitating use of different depreciation rates or methods, each part is recognised as a separate fixed asset.
+Construction in progress is transferred to fixed assets when the asset is ready for its intended use. No depreciation is provided against
+construction in progress.
+The cost of a purchased fixed asset comprises the purchase price, related taxes, and any directly attributable expenditure for bringing the asset
+to working condition for its intended use. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour, capitalised borrowing
+costs (see Note 3(19)), and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use. According to legal
+or contractual obligations, costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which the related assets located are included in
+the initial cost.
+Fixed assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). Construction in
+progress is stated in the balance sheet at cost less impairment losses (see Note 3(12)).
+Fixed assets represent the tangible assets held by the Group using in the production of goods, rendering of services and for operation and
+administrative purposes with useful life over one year.
+3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+For the year ended 31 December 2020
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+The Group recognises a right-of-use asset at the commencement date, and recognises the lease liability at the present value of the lease
+payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments include fixed payments, the exercise price of a purchase option if the Group is
+reasonably certain to exercise that option, and payments of penalties for terminating the lease if the lease term reflects the Group exercising
+that option, etc. Variable payments that are based on a percentage of sales are not included in the lease payments, and should be recognised
+in profit or loss when incurred. Lease liabilities to be paid within one year (including one year) from balance sheet date is presented in non-
+current liabilities due within one year.

+When the Group leases self-owned plants and buildings, equipment and machinery, lease income from an operating lease is recognised on a
+straight-line basis over the period of the lease. The Group recognises variable lease income which is based on a certain percentage of sales
+as rental income when occurred.
+A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is a finance lease. An operating lease is a
+lease other than a finance lease.
+(b) As Lessor
+For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, except for the practical expedient which applies only to rent
+concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the group determine the lease term of the modified lease at the
+effective date of the modification, and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate.
+The group decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications
+that decrease the scope or shorten the term of the lease, and shall recognise in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full
+termination of the lease. The group make a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset for all other lease modifications.
+A lessee shall account for a lease modification as a separate lease if both: (1) the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding
+the right to use one or more underlying assets; and (2) the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-
+alone price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price to reflect the circumstances of the particular
+contract.
+Payments associated with short-term leases with lease terms within 12 months and leases for which the underlying assets are individually
+of low value when it is new are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an expense in profit or loss or as cost of relevant
+assets, instead of recognising right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

+(5) Long-term equity investments
+Where the Company combines a subsidiary during the reporting period through a business combination involving entities under common
+control, the financial statements of the subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements as if the combination had occurred at
+the beginning of the earliest comparative year presented or, if later, at the date that common control was established. Therefore the opening
+balances and the comparative figures of the consolidated financial statements are restated. In the preparation of the consolidated financial
+statements, the subsidiary's assets, liabilities and results of operations are included in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated
+income statement, respectively, based on their carrying amounts in the subsidiary's financial statements, from the date that common control
+was established.
+Inventories include raw materials, work in progress, semi-finished goods, finished goods and reusable materials. Reusable materials include
+low-value consumables, packaging materials and other materials, which can be used repeatedly but do not meet the definition of fixed assets.
+Reusable materials are amortised in full when received for use. The amounts of the amortisation are included in the cost of the related assets or
+profit or loss.

+Annual Report 2020 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+In a business combination involving entities not under common control achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity
+interest in the acquiree on the acquisition date. The difference between the fair value and the net book value is recognised as investment
+income for the year. If other comprehensive income was recognised regarding the equity interest previously held in the acquiree before the
+acquisition date, the relevant other comprehensive income is transferred to investment income in the period in which the acquisition occurs.
+Where the Company acquired a minority interest from a subsidiary's minority shareholders, the difference between the investment cost and
+the newly acquired interest into the subsidiary's identifiable net assets at the acquisition date is adjusted to the capital reserve (capital
+surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. Where the Company partially disposed an investment of a subsidiary that do not result in a loss
+of control, the difference between the proceeds and the corresponding share of the interest into the subsidiary is adjusted to the capital
+reserve (capital surplus) in the consolidated balance sheet. If the credit balance of capital reserve (capital surplus) is insufficient, any excess
+is adjusted to retained profits.
+Where the Company acquires a subsidiary during the reporting year through a business combination involving entities not under common
+control, the identifiable assets, liabilities and results of operations of the subsidiaries are consolidated into consolidated financial statements
+from the date that control commences, based on the fair value of those identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date.
+The Group terminates the recognition of an item of fixed asset when it is in a state of disposal or it is estimated that it is unable to generate
+any economic benefits through use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of fixed asset are determined
+as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised in profit or loss on the date of
+retirement or disposal.
+The scope of consolidated financial statements is based on control and the consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its
+subsidiaries. Control means an entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability
+to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial
+statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

+(1) Accounting treatment of business combination involving entities under common control and not under common control (Continued)
+A business combination involving entities or businesses not under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are not ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination. Difference
+between the consideration paid by the Group as the acquirer, comprises of the aggregate of the fair value at the acquisition date of assets
+given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity securities issued by the acquirer in exchange for control of the acquiree, and the Group's
+interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree, is recognised as goodwill (Note 3(10)) if it is an excess, otherwise in
+the profit or loss. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt securities issued as the consideration of the combination is recognised
+in the initial cost of the securities. Any other expense directly attributable to the business combination is recognised in the profit or loss
+for the year. The difference between the fair value and the book value of the assets given is recognised in profit or loss. The acquiree's
+identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, if satisfying the recognition criteria, are recognised by the Group at their fair value at
+the acquisition date. The acquisition date is the date on which the acquirer effectively obtains control of the acquiree.
+A business combination involving entities or businesses under common control is a business combination in which all of the combining
+entities or businesses are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination, and that
+control is not transitory. The assets and liabilities that the acquirer receives in the acquisition are accounted for at the acquiree's carrying
+amount on the acquisition date. The difference between the carrying amount of the acquired net assets and the carrying amount of the
+consideration paid for the acquisition (or the total nominal value of shares issued) is recognised in the share premium of capital reserve, or
+the retained earnings in case of any shortfall in the share premium of capital reserve. Any costs directly attributable to the combination shall
+be recognised in profit or loss for the current period when occurred. The expense incurred for equity securities and debt securities issued as

+Any excess of the cost over the net realisable value of each item of inventories is recognised as a provision for diminution in the value of
+inventories. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the
+estimated costs necessary to make the sale and relevant taxes. The net realisable value of materials held for use in the production is measured
+based on the net realisable value of the finished goods in which they will be incorporated. The net realisable value of the quantity of inventory
+held to satisfy sales or service contracts is measured based on the contract price. If the quantities held by the Group are more than the
+quantities of inventories specified in sales contracts, the net realisable value of the excess portion of inventories is measured based on general
+selling prices.
+Where control of a subsidiary is lost due to partial disposal of the equity investment held in a subsidiary, or any other reasons, the Group
+derecognises assets, liabilities, minority interests and other equity items related to the subsidiary. The remaining equity investment is
+remeasured to fair value at the date in which control is lost. The sum of consideration received from disposal of equity investment and the
+fair value of the remaining equity investment, net of the fair value of the Group's previous share of the subsidiary's identifiable net assets
+recorded from the acquisition date, is recognised in investment income in the period in which control is lost. Other comprehensive income
+related to the previous equity investment in the subsidiary, is transferred to investment income when control is lost. Other comprehensive
+income related to the equity investment of the original subsidiary shall be converted into the current investment income in the event of loss
+of control.
+At the balance sheet date, inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

+The assets and liabilities of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The equity
+items, excluding "Retained earnings", are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates at the transaction dates. The income and expenses
+of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates or an exchange rate that approximates the spot exchange rates on
+the transaction dates. The resulting exchange differences are separately presented as other comprehensive income in the balance sheet within
+equity. Upon disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences recognised in which relate to that foreign
+operation is transferred to profit or loss in the year in which the disposal occurs.
+Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the PBOC rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences, except for those directly
+related to the acquisition, construction or production of qualified assets, are recognised as income or expenses in the income statement. Non-
+monetary items denominated in foreign currency measured at historical cost are not translated. Non-monetary items denominated in foreign
+currency that are measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The difference
+between the translated amount and the original currency amount is recognised as other comprehensive income, if it is classified as other equity
+instrument investments; or charged to the income statement if it is measured at fair value through profit or loss.

+The unrealised profit or loss arising from the sale of assets by the Company to its subsidiaries is eliminated in full against the net profit
+attributed to shareholders; the unrealised profit or loss from the sale of assets by subsidiaries to the Company is eliminated according to the
+distribution ratio between shareholders of the parent company and minority interests. For sale of assets that occurred between subsidiaries,
+the unrealised gains and losses is eliminated according to the distribution ratio for its subsidiaries seller between net profit attributable to
+shareholders of the parent company and minority interests.
+Where the accounting policies and accounting period adopted by the subsidiaries are different from those adopted by the Company,
+adjustments are made to the subsidiaries' financial statements according to the Company's accounting policies and accounting period. Intra-
+group balances and transactions, and any unrealised profit or loss arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the
+consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in the same way as unrealised
+gains but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
+The excess of the loss attributable to the minority interests during the period over the minority interests' share of the equity at the beginning
+of the reporting period is deducted from minority interests.
+Inventories are initially measured at cost. Cost includes the cost of purchase and processing, and other expenditures incurred in bringing the
+inventories to their present location and condition. The cost of inventories is mainly calculated using the weighted average method. In addition to
+the cost of purchase of raw material, work in progress and finished goods include direct labour and an appropriate allocation of manufacturing
+overhead costs.
+Other than oil and gas properties, the cost of fixed assets less residual value and accumulated impairment losses is depreciated using the
+straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, unless the fixed asset is classified as held for sale. The estimated useful lives and the
+estimated rate of residual values adopted for respective classes of fixed assets are as follows:

+(12) Impairment of other non-financial long-term assets (Continued)
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash flows generated by the
+asset (or asset unit, set of asset units).
+Fair value less costs to sell of an asset is based on its selling price in an arm's length transaction less any direct costs attributable to the
+disposal. Present value of expected future cash flows is the estimation of future cash flows to be generated from the use of and upon disposal of
+the asset, discounted at an appropriate pre-tax discount rate over the asset's remaining useful life.
+If the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. The amount
+by which the carrying amount is reduced is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. A provision for impairment loss of the asset
+is recognised accordingly. Impairment losses related to an asset unit or a set of asset units first reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill
+allocated to the asset unit or set of asset units, and then reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the asset unit or set of asset units on
+a pro rata basis. However, the carrying amount of an impaired asset will not be reduced below the highest of its individual fair value less costs
+to sell (if determinable), the present value of expected future cash flows (if determinable) and zero.

+short term compensation actually incurred as a liability and charge to the cost of an asset or to profit or loss in the same period, and non-
+monetary benefits are valued with the fair value.
+(b) Post-employment benefits
+The Group classifies post-employment benefits into either Defined Contribution Plan (DC plan) or Defined Benefit Plan (DB plan). DC plan
+means the Group only contributes a fixed amount to an independent fund and no longer bears other payment obligation; DB plan is post-
+employment benefits other than DC plan. In this reporting period, the post-employment benefits of the Group primarily comprise basic
+pension insurance and unemployment insurance and both of them are DC plans.

+Employees of the Group participate in the social insurance system established and managed by local labor and social security department.
+The Group makes basic pension insurance to the local social insurance agencies every month, at the applicable benchmarks and rates
+stipulated by the government for the benefits of its employees. After the employees retire, the local labor and social security department has
+obligations to pay them the basic pension. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group
+shall recognise the accrued amount according to the above social security provisions as a liability and charge to the cost of an asset or to
+profit or loss in the same period.
+Employee benefits are all forms of considerations and compensation given in exchange for services rendered by employees, including short term

+(3) The hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the entity actually
+hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the entity actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item. However, that
+designation shall not reflect an imbalance between the weightings of the hedged item and the hedging instrument.
+Cash flow hedges
+Cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with all, or a
+component of, a recognised asset or liability (such as all or some future interest payments on variable-rate debt) or a highly probable
+forecast transaction, and could affect profit or loss. As long as a cash flow hedge meets the qualifying criteria for hedge accounting,
+the hedging relationship shall be accounted for as follows:
+The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument from inception of the hedge;
+The cumulative change in present value of the expected future cash flows on the hedged item from inception of the hedge.
+The gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income.
+The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an ineffective hedge is recognised in profit or loss.
+If a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, or a hedged
+forecast transaction for a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability becomes a firm commitment for which fair value hedge
+accounting is applied, the entity shall remove that amount from the cash flow hedge reserve and include it directly in the initial cost
+or other carrying amount of the asset or the liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and hence it does not affect other
+comprehensive income.
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding two policy statements, that amount shall be reclassified from the
+cash flow hedge reserve to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged
+expected future cash flows affect profit or loss.
+If the amount that has been accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve is a loss and the Group expects that all or a portion of that
+loss will not be recovered in one or more future periods, the Group immediately reclassify the amount that is not expected to be
+recovered into profit or loss.
+When the hedging relationship no longer meets the risk management objective on the basis of which it qualified for hedge accounting (ie
+the entity no longer pursues that risk management objective), or when a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised,
+or there is no longer an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument or the effect of credit risk starts
+to dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship or no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the
+Group discontinues prospectively the hedge accounting treatments. If the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that
+amount shall remain in the cash flow hedge reserve and shall be accounted for as cash flow hedges. If the hedged future cash flows
+are no longer expected to occur, that amount shall be immediately reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or loss as a
+reclassification adjustment. A hedged future cash flow that is no longer highly probable to occur may still be expected to occur, if the
+hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that amount shall remain in the cash flow hedge reserve and shall be accounted
+for as cash flow hedges.
+(12) Impairment of other non-financial long-term assets
+Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date for indications that the following assets, including fixed
+assets, construction in progress, right-of-use assets, goodwill, intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures
+may be impaired.
+Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The
+recoverable amounts of goodwill and intangible assets with uncertain useful lives are estimated annually no matter there are any indications of
+impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment together with related asset units or groups of asset units.
+An asset unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or
+groups of assets. An asset unit comprises related assets that generate associated cash inflows. In identifying an asset unit, the Group primarily
+considers whether the asset unit is able to generate cash inflows independently as well as the management style of production and operational
+activities, and the decision for the use or disposal of asset.

+(c) Termination benefits
+When the Group terminates the employment relationship with employees before the employment contracts expire, or provides compensation
+as an offer to encourage employees to accept voluntary redundancy, a provision for the termination benefits provided is recognised in profit
+or loss under the conditions of both the Group has a formal plan for the termination of employment or has made an offer to employees for
+voluntary redundancy, which will be implemented shortly; and the Group is not allowed to withdraw from termination plan or redundancy
+offer unilaterally.
+(15) Income tax
+Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to business combinations and items recognised
+directly in equity (including other comprehensive income).
+(17) Revenue recognition
+Revenue arises in the course of the Group's ordinary activities, and increases in economic benefits in the form of inflows that result in an
+increase in equity, other than those relating to contributions from equity participants.
+The Group sells crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemical products, etc. Revenue is recognised according to the expected consideration
+amount, when a customer obtains control over the relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer obtains control of a promised
+asset, the Group shall consider indicators of the transfer of control, which include, but are not limited to, the Group has a present right to
+payment for the asset; the Group has transferred physical possession of the asset to the customer; the customer has the significant risks and
+rewards of ownership of the asset; the customer has accepted the asset.
+Sales of goods
+Sales are recognised when control of the goods have transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer. Advance from
+customers but goods not yet delivered is recorded as contract liabilities and is recognised as revenues when a customer obtains control over the
+relevant goods.
+(18) Government grants
+Government grants are the gratuitous monetary assets or non-monetary assets that the Group receives from the government, excluding capital
+injection by the government as an investor. Special funds such as investment grants allocated by the government, if clearly defined in official
+documents as part of "capital reserve" are dealt with as capital contributions, and not regarded as government grants.
+Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and the Group is able to comply with
+the conditions attaching to them. Government grants in the form of monetary assets are recorded based on the amount received or receivable,
+whereas non-monetary assets are measured at fair value.
+Government grants received in relation to assets are recorded as deferred income, and recognised evenly in profit or loss over the assets'
+useful lives. Government grants received in relation to revenue are recorded as deferred income, and recognised as income in future periods as
+compensation when the associated future expenses or losses arise; or directly recognised as income in the current period as compensation for
+past expenses or losses.
+(19) Borrowing costs
+Borrowing costs incurred on borrowings for the acquisition, construction or production of qualified assets are capitalised into the cost of the
+related assets in the capitalisable period.
+Except for the above, other borrowing costs are recognised as financial expenses in the income statement when incurred.
+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2020

+Financial Statements (PRC)
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+costs, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision of oil and gas properties.
+(2) The effect of credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship.
+Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a contingent event, it is probable that an outflow of economic
+benefits will be required to settle the obligations and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the effect of time value of money is material,
+provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.
+different taxable entities which either to intend to settle the current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and
+settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to
+be settled or recovered.
+Current tax is the expected tax payable calculated at the applicable tax rate on taxable income for the year, plus any adjustment to tax payable
+in respect of previous years.
+At the balance sheet date, current tax assets and liabilities are offset if the Group has a legally enforceable right to set them off and also intends
+either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
+Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised based on deductible temporary differences and taxable temporary differences respectively.
+Temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Unused tax losses and unused
+tax credits able to be utilised in subsequent years are treated as temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it
+is probable that future taxable income will be available to offset the deductible temporary differences.
+Temporary differences arise in a transaction, which is not a business combination, and at the time of transaction, does not affect accounting
+profit or taxable profit (or unused tax losses), will not result in deferred tax. Temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill
+will not result in deferred tax.

+(15) Income tax (Continued)
+At the balance sheet date, the amounts of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of recovery or settlement of the
+carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates that are expected to be applied in the period when the asset is recovered or the
+liability is settled in accordance with tax laws.
+The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date. If it is unlikely to obtain sufficient taxable income to offset
+against the benefit of deferred tax asset, the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets is written down. Any such write-down should be
+subsequently reversed where it becomes probable that sufficient taxable income will be available.
+At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if all the following conditions are met:
+the taxable entity has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and current tax liabilities; and
+they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on either:
+the same taxable entity; or

+(d) Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting (Continued)
+(i) Classification and measurement
+The Group classifies financial assets into different categories depending on the business model for managing the financial assets and the
+contractual terms of cash flows of the financial assets: (1) financial assets measured at amortised cost, (2) financial assets measured at
+fair value through other comprehensive income, (3) financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. A contractual cash flow
+characteristic which could have only a de minimis effect, or could have an effect that is more than de minimis but is not genuine, does
+not affect the classification of the financial asset.
+Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value. For financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, the relevant
+transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. The transaction costs for other financial assets are included in the initially recognised
+amount. However, accounts receivable arising from sales of goods or rendering services, without significant financing component, are
+initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by the Group.
+Debt instruments
+The debt instruments held by the Group refer to the instruments that meet the definition of financial liabilities from the perspective of the
+issuer, and are measured in the following ways:
+Measured at amortised cost:
+The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows. The contractual
+cash flow characteristics are to give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the
+principal amount outstanding. Interest income from these financial assets is recognised using the effective interest rate method. The
+financial assets include cash at bank and on hand and receivables.
+Measured at fair value through other comprehensive income:
+(a) Financial assets
+The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for
+selling the financial assets, the contractual cash flow characteristics of such financial assets are consistent with the basic lending
+arrangements. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of
+impairment gains or losses, foreign exchange gains and losses and interest income calculated using the effective interest rate method,
+which are recognised in profit or loss. The financial assets include receivables financing.
+Equity instruments that the Group has no power to control, jointly control or exercise significant influence over, are measured at fair value
+through profit or loss and presented as financial assets held for trading.
+In addition, the Group designates some equity instruments that are not held for trading as financial assets at fair value through other
+comprehensive income, and presented in other equity instrument investments. The relevant dividends of these financial assets are
+recognised in profit or loss. When derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is
+transferred to retained earnings.
+(ii) Impairment
+The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortised cost and receivables
+financing measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past
+events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
+The Group measures the expected credit losses of financial instruments on different stages at each balance sheet date. For financial
+instruments that have no significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition, on first stage, the Group measures the loss
+allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk since the initial
+recognition of a financial instrument but credit impairment has not occurred, on second stage, the Group recognises a loss allowance
+at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. If credit impairment has occurred since the initial recognition of a financial
+instrument, on third stage, the Group recognises a loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.

+Equity instruments
+Financial Statements (PRC)
+Financial instruments, refer to the contracts that form one party's financial assets and form the financial liabilities or equity instruments of the
+other party. The Group recognises a financial asset or a financial liability when the Group enters into and becomes a party to the underlining
+contract of the financial instrument.
+Goodwill is not amortised and is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). On disposal of an asset group or a set of
+asset groups, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is written off and included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.
+Useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at least each year end.
+The hedging relationship meets all of the following hedge effectiveness requirements:
+Estimated
+useful life
+12.50 years
+4.30 years
+Estimated rate
+of residual value
+3%
+3%
+Oil and gas properties include the mineral interests in properties, wells and related support equipment arising from oil and gas exploration and
+production activities.
+The acquisition cost of mineral interest is capitalised as oil and gas properties. Costs of development wells and related support equipment are
+capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially capitalised as construction in progress pending determination of whether the well has found
+proved reserves. Exploratory well costs are charged to expenses upon the determination that the well has not found proved reserves. However,
+in the absence of a determination of the discovery of proved reserves, exploratory well costs are not carried as an asset for more than one
+year following completion of drilling. If, after one year has passed, a determination of the discovery of proved reserves cannot be made, the
+exploratory well costs are impaired and charged to expense. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, are charged
+to profit or loss in the year as incurred.
+The Group estimates future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration
+the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with the industry practices. These estimated future dismantlement costs are
+discounted at credit-adjusted risk-free rate and are capitalised as oil and gas properties, which are subsequently amortised as part of the costs
+of the oil and gas properties.
+(11) Financial Instruments
+Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based on volumes produced and reserves.
+(9) Intangible assets
+An intangible asset is regarded as having an indefinite useful life and is not amortised when there is no foreseeable limit to the year over which
+the asset is expected to generate economic benefits for the Group.
+Useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed at least each year end.

+(10) Goodwill
+The initial cost of goodwill represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the acquirer's interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets
+of the acquiree under the business combination involving entities not under common control.
+Intangible assets, where the estimated useful life is finite, are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortisation and provision
+for impairment losses (see Note 3(12)). For an intangible asset with finite useful life, its cost less estimated residual value and accumulated
+impairment losses is amortised on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives, unless the intangible assets are classified as held for sale.

+(8) Oil and gas properties
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+For the year ended 31 December 2020
+The Group derecognises a financial asset when a) the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset expires; b) the Group
+transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; c) the financial assets have
+been transferred and the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, but
+the Group has not retained control.
+On derecognition of other equity instrument investments, the difference between the carrying amounts and the sum of the consideration
+received and any cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income, is recognised in retained earnings. While
+on derecognition of other financial assets, this difference is recognised in profit or loss.
+(b) Financial liabilities
+The Group, at initial recognition, classifies financial liabilities as either financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost or
+financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
+The Group's financial liabilities are mainly financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, including bills payable, accounts payable, other
+payables, loans and debentures payable, etc. These financial liabilities are initially measured at the amount of their fair value after deducting
+transaction costs and use the effective interest rate method for subsequent measurement.
+Where the present obligations of financial liabilities are completely or partially discharged, the Group derecognises these financial liabilities
+or discharged parts of obligations. The differences between the carrying amounts and the consideration received are recognised in profit or
+loss.
+(c) Determination of fair value
+If there is an active market for financial instruments, the quoted price in the active market is used to measure fair values of the financial
+instruments. If no active market exists for financial instruments, valuation techniques are used to measure fair values. In valuation, the Group
+adopts valuation techniques that are applicable in the current situation and have sufficient available data and other information to support it,
+and selects input values that are consistent with the asset or liability characteristics considered by market participants in the transaction of
+relevant assets or liabilities, and gives priority to relevant observable input values. Use of unobservable input values where relevant observable
+input values cannot be obtained or are not practicable.
+(d) Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
+Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or
+loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss, except where the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting.
+Hedge accounting is a method which recognises the offsetting effects on profit or loss of changes in the fair values of the hedging instrument
+and the hedged item in the same accounting period, to represent the effect of risk management activities.
+Hedged items are the items that expose the Group to risks of changes in future cash flows and that are designated as being hedged and that
+must be reliably measurable. The Group's hedged items include a forecast transaction that is settled with an undetermined future market
+price and exposes the Group to risk of variability in cash flows, etc.
+A hedging instrument is a designated derivative whose changes in cash flows are expected to offset changes in the cash flows of the hedged
+item.

+The Group recognises the loss allowance accrued or written back in profit or loss.
+(iii) Derecognition
+For accounts receivable and receivables financing related to revenue, the Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to
+lifetime expected credit losses.
+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+For financial instruments that have low credit risk at the balance sheet date, the Group assumes that there is no significant increase in
+credit risk since the initial recognition, and measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
+For financial instruments on the first stage and the second stage, and that have low credit risk, the Group calculates interest income
+according to carrying amount without deducting the impairment allowance and effective interest rate. For financial instruments on the
+third stage, interest income is calculated according to the carrying amount minus amortised cost after the provision of impairment
+allowance and effective interest rate.

+(i) Disposals for the year ended 31 December 2020 mainly due to the Company and its subsidiaries disposed their oil and gas pipeline and
+ancillary facilities to PipeChina.
+Impairment losses on fixed assets for the year ended 31 December 2020 primarily represent impairment losses recognised in the exploration
+and production ("E&P") segment of RMB 8,435 million (2019: RMB 0 million), the chemicals segment of RMB 2,611 million (2019:
+RMB 4 million), marketing and distribution segment of RMB 442 million (2019: RMB 52 million) and the refining segment of RMB 226 million
+(2019: RMB 140 million). The impairment losses in the E&P segment were mainly the impairment losses of fixed assets relating to oil and gas
+producing activities. The primary factors resulting in the E&P segment impairment loss were low oil price outlook and downward revision of oil
+and gas reserve in certain fields. E&P segment determines recoverable amounts of fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities, which
+include significant judgments and assumptions. The recoverable amounts were determined based on the present values of the expected future
+cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.47% (2019: 10.47%). Further future downward revisions to the Group's oil price outlook
+would lead to further impairments which, in aggregate, are likely to be material. It is estimated that a general decrease of 5% in oil price,
+with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing
+activities by approximately RMB 4,548 million (2019: RMB 184 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in operating cost, with all
+other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities
+by approximately RMB 2,836 million (2019: RMB 180 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in discount rate, with all other
+variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's fixed assets relating to oil and gas producing activities by
+approximately RMB 287 million (2019: RMB 7 million). The assets in the chemicals segment were written down because evidence indicates the
+economic performance of certain production facilities are worse than expected.

+20 OTHER NON-CURRENT ASSETS
+Periodically, management performed assessment on the probability that future taxable profit will be available over the period which the deferred tax
+assets can be realised or utilised. In assessing the probability, both positive and negative evidence was considered, including whether it is probable
+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the
+tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur. During the year ended 31 December 2020, write-down of deferred tax assets
+amounted to RMB 75 million (2019: RMB 189 million) (Note 52).
+At 31 December 2020, certain subsidiaries of the Company did not recognise deferred tax of deductible loss carried forward of RMB 17,718 million
+(2019: RMB 16,605 million), of which RMB 4,349 million (2019: RMB 1,992 million) was incurred for the year ended 31 December 2020, because
+it was not probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. These deductible losses carried forward of RMB 3,089 million, RMB 5,938 million,
+RMB 2,356 million, RMB 1,986 million and RMB 4,349 million will expire in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and after, respectively.

+The Group has exposure to the following risks from its uses of financial instruments:
+credit risk;
+(i) Exploration and production - which explores and develops oil fields, produces crude oil and natural gas and sells such products to the refining
+segment of the Group and external customers.
+(ii) Refining - which processes and purifies crude oil, which is sourced from the exploration and production segment of the Group and external
+suppliers, and manufactures and sells petroleum products to the chemicals and marketing and distribution segments of the Group and external
+customers.
+(iii) Marketing and distribution - which owns and operates oil depots and service stations in the PRC, and distributes and sells refined petroleum
+products (mainly gasoline and diesel) in the PRC through wholesale and retail sales networks.
+(iv) Chemicals which manufactures and sells petrochemical products, derivative petrochemical products and other chemical products to external
+customers.
+(v) Corporate and others - which largely comprise the trading activities of the import and export companies of the Group and research and
+development undertaken by other subsidiaries.
+The segments were determined primarily because the Group manages its exploration and production, refining, marketing and distribution,
+chemicals, and corporate and others businesses separately. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and/
+or distribute distinct products with different production processes and due to their distinct operating and gross margin characteristics.

+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2020 139
+The Group's other receivables are considered to have low credit risk (Note10), and the loss allowance recognised during the year was therefore
+limited to 12 months expected credit losses. The Group considers "low credit risk” for other receivables when they have a low risk of default and
+the issuer has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term.
+The detailed analysis of accounts receivable and receivables financing is listed in note 7 and note 8.
+The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before 31 December 2020 or 31 December 2019,
+respectively, and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current
+and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the accounts receivable and receivables
+financing.
+•
+To measure the expected credit losses, accounts receivable and receivables financing have been grouped based on shared credit risk
+characteristics and the days past due.
+The Group's cash deposits are placed only with large financial institutions with acceptable credit ratings, and there is no material impairment
+loss identified.
+The Group's primary type of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss model is accounts receivable, receivables financing and
+other receivables.
+(ii) Impairment of financial assets
+The carrying amounts of cash at bank and on hand, financial assets held for trading, derivative financial assets, accounts receivable, receivables
+financing and other receivables, represent the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to financial assets.
+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
+obligations, and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions (including structured deposits) and receivables
+from customers. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial
+institutions in the PRC with acceptable credit ratings. The majority of the Group's accounts receivable relates to sales of petroleum and chemical
+products to related parties and third parties operating in the petroleum and chemical industries. No single customer accounted for greater than
+10% of total accounts receivable at 31 December 2020, except for the amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries. The
+Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral on accounts receivable.
+The Group maintains an impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within management's expectations.
+(i) Risk management
+Credit risk
+The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, and set appropriate risk limits and
+controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
+conditions and the Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and
+constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. Internal audit department undertakes both regular
+and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Group's audit committee.
+The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework, and developing
+and monitoring the Group's risk management policies.

+For accounts receivable and receivables financing, the Group applies the "No.22 Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises - Financial

+allowance for all accounts receivable and receivables financing.
+In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of

+The Group monitors the conditions that are subject to the guarantees to identify whether it is probable that a loss will occur, and recognises any
+such losses under guarantees when those losses are reliably estimable. At 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2019, the Group estimates that
+there is no need to pay for the guarantees. Thus no liabilities have been accrued for a loss related to the Group's obligation under these guarantee
+arrangements.

+60 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Continued)
+Environmental contingencies
+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect the Group's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature and
+extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development areas,
+whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv) changes.
+in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is indeterminable
+due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be
+required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot reasonably be estimated at
+present, and could be material.
+The Group recognised normal routine pollutant discharge fees of approximately RMB 11,362 million in the consolidated financial statements for the
+year ended 31 December 2020 (2019: RMB 9,271 million).

+NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+Annual Report 2020 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+If the costs of inventories become higher than their net realisable values, an allowance for diminution in value of inventories is recognised.
+Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the
+estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Management bases the estimates on all available information, including the current market prices of
+the finished goods and raw materials, and historical operating costs. If the actual selling prices were to be lower or the costs of completion were
+to be higher than estimated, the actual allowance for diminution in value of inventories would be higher than estimated.
+(e) Allowance for diminution in value of inventories
+Financial Statements (PRC)
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past events,
+current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Group regularly monitors and reviews the assumptions used for estimating
+expected credit losses.
+Fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account the estimated residual
+value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets at least annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense
+to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group's historical experience with similar assets and taking into
+account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous
+estimates.
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered "impaired", and
+an impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with "CASS 8 - Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are
+reviewed periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for
+impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a
+decline has occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. The
+recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash flows. It is difficult to precisely
+estimate the fair value because quoted market prices for the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining
+the value of expected future cash flows, expected cash flows generated by the asset or the cash-generating unit are discounted to their present
+value, which requires significant judgement relating to sales volume, selling price, amount of operating costs and discount rate. The Group uses
+all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based
+on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sales volume, selling price, amount of operating costs and discount rate.
+(c) Depreciation
+(b) Impairment for assets
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment
+expense and future dismantlement costs. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based
+on volumes produced and reserves.
+Future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties are estimated with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration
+the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with industry practices in the similar geographic area, including estimation
+of economic life of oil and gas properties, technology and price level. The present values of these estimated future dismantlement costs are
+capitalised as oil and gas properties with equivalent amounts recognised as provisions for dismantlement costs.
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have
+to be met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as "proved". Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated
+at least annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels
+change from year to year, the estimate of proved and proved developed reserves also changes. This change is considered a change in estimate
+for accounting purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in related depreciation rates. Oil and gas reserves have a direct impact on
+the assessment of the recoverability of the carrying amounts of oil and gas properties reported in the financial statements. If proved reserves
+estimates are revised downwards, the Group's earnings could be affected by changes in depreciation expense or an immediate write-down of the
+carrying amount of oil and properties.
+The accounting for the exploration and production segment's oil and gas activities is subject to accounting rules that are unique to the oil and
+gas industry. The Group has used the successful efforts method to account for oil and gas business activities. The successful efforts method
+reflects the volatility that is inherent in exploring for mineral resources in that costs of unsuccessful exploratory efforts are charged to expense.
+These costs primarily include dry hole costs, seismic costs and other exploratory costs.
+(a) Oil and gas properties and reserves
+The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of
+reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the financial statements. The significant
+accounting policies are set forth in Note 3. The Group believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgements and
+estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.
+The Group's financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the
+preparation of the financial statements. The Group bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions
+that it believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources.
+On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts, circumstances and conditions
+change.

+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2020
+At 31 December 2020, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of USD 10 per barrel in basic price of derivative financial instruments,
+with all other variables held constant, would impact the fair value of derivative financial instruments, which would increase/decrease the Group's
+net profit for the year by approximately RMB 3,592 million (2019: increase/decrease RMB 3,134 million), and increase/decrease the Group's
+other comprehensive income by approximately RMB 10,379 million (2019: decrease/increase RMB 4,289 million). This sensitivity analysis
+has been determined assuming that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the change was applied to the Group's
+derivative financial instruments at that date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2019.
+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products
+and chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the
+Group. The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps contracts, to manage a portion of such risk.
+(c) Commodity price risk
+At 31 December 2020, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in variable interest rates, with all other variables held
+constant, would decrease/increase the Group's net profit for the year by approximately RMB 245 million (2019: decrease/increase RMB 352
+million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change of interest rates was applied to the Group's debts outstanding
+at the balance sheet date with exposure to cash flow interest rate risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2019.
+The Group's interest rate risk exposure arises primarily from its short-term and long-term loans. Loans carrying interest at variable interest rates
+and at fixed interest rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk respectively. The interest rates and
+terms of repayment of short-term and long-term loans of the Group are disclosed in Note 22 and Note 31, respectively.
+(b) Interest rate risk
+Other than the amounts as disclosed above, the amounts of other financial assets and liabilities of the Group are substantially denominated in

+At 31 December 2020, the Group has standby credit facilities with several PRC financial institutions which provide the Group to borrow up to
+RMB 443,966 million (2019: RMB 379,649 million) on an unsecured basis, at a weighted average interest rate of 2.85% per annum (2019: 3.57%).

+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group encounters short fall of capital when meeting its obligation of financial liabilities. The Group's approach to
+managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal
+and stressed capital conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. The Group prepares monthly
+cash flow budget to ensure that they will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group arranges and
+negotiates financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the liquidity risk.

+If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that
+fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
+In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
+whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise
+appears to be materially misstated.
+Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion
+thereon.
+The directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information included in the annual
+report other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
+OTHER INFORMATION
+Financial Statements (International)
+Based on our work, we found the key assumptions and input data adopted
+were supported by the evidence we obtained.
+Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement,
+whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. We report our opinion solely to you, as a body, and for no
+other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report. Reasonable assurance is
+a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAS will always detect a material misstatement when it
+exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected
+to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
+Evaluated the sensitivity analyses prepared by the Group, and assessed
+the potential impacts of a range of possible outcomes.
+As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

+From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the
+consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report
+unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not
+be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of
+such communication.
+We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence,
+and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
+actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
+We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit
+findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
+Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an

+solely responsible for our audit opinion.
+Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the
+consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
+Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether
+a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If
+we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated
+financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to
+the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

+Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform
+audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk

+Accountants ("HKICPA"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the
+Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report.
+Refer to note 8 “Other operating expense, net", note 17 "Property, plant
+and equipment” and note 44 “Accounting estimates and judgements" to
+the consolidated financial statements.
+Low crude oil prices gave rise to possible indication that the carrying
+amount of property, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing
+activities as at 31 December 2020 might be impaired. The Group has
+adopted value in use as the respective recoverable amounts of property,
+plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities, which
+involved key estimations or assumptions including:
+Future crude oil prices;
+Future production profiles;
+Compared the future production profiles against the oil and gas
+reserve estimation report approved by the management. Evaluated
+the competence, capability and objectivity of the management's
+experts engaged in estimating the oil and gas reserves. Assessed
+key estimations or assumptions used in the reserve estimation, by
+reference to historical data, management plans and/or relevant
+external data.
+Compared estimates of future crude oil prices adopted by the Group
+against a range of published crude oil price forecasts.
+Assessed the methodology adopted in the discounted cash flow
+projections, tested mathematical accuracy of the projections, and the
+completeness, accuracy, and relevance of underlying data used in the
+projections.
+Evaluated and tested the key controls in respect of the preparation of
+the discounted cash flow projections of property, plant and equipment
+relating to oil and gas producing activities.
+Obtained an understanding of the management's internal control and
+assessment process of impairment of property, plant and equipment
+relating to oil and gas producing activities and assessed the inherent
+risk of material misstatement by considering the degree of estimation
+uncertainty and level of other inherent risk factors such as complexity,
+subjectivity, changes and susceptibility to management bias or fraud.
+•
+•
+In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December
+2020, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial
+Reporting Standards ("IFRSS") issued by the International Accounting Standard Board and have been properly prepared in compliance with the
+disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

+In auditing the respective value in use calculations of property, plant and
+equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities, we performed the
+following key procedures on the relevant discounted cash flow projections

+How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
+Because of the significance of the carrying amount of property, plant and
+equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities as at 31 December
+2020, together with the use of significant estimations or assumptions

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2020
+The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in
+which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both
+current and future periods.
+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
+The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries, and interest in associates and joint ventures.
+(i) Subsidiaries and non-controlling interests
+Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable
+returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
+The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control effectively
+commences until the date that control effectively ceases.
+Non-controlling interests at the balance sheet date, being the portion of the net assets of subsidiaries attributable to equity interests that
+are not owned by the Company, whether directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, are presented in the consolidated balance sheet and
+consolidated statement of changes in equity within equity, separately from equity attributable to the shareholders of the Company. Non-
+controlling interests in the results of the Group are presented on the face of the consolidated income statement and the consolidated
+statement of comprehensive income as an allocation of the total profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year between non-
+controlling interests and the shareholders of the Company.
+Changes in the Group's interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions, whereby
+adjustments are made to the amounts of controlling and non-controlling interests within consolidated equity to reflect the change in relative
+interests, but no adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognised.
+If a business combination involving entities not under common control is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the
+acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from
+such remeasurement are recognised in the consolidated income statement.
+(a) Basis of consolidation
+5,928
+The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and
+assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
+liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The
+estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under
+the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
+readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
+(b) New and amended standards and interpretations not yet adopted by the Group
+The notes on pages 155 to 203 form part of these consolidated financial statements.

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+for the year ended 31 December 2020
+1 PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES, ORGANISATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION
+Principal activities
+China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (the "Company") is an energy and chemical company that, through its subsidiaries (hereinafter collectively
+referred to as the "Group"), engages in oil and gas and chemical operations in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"). Oil and gas operations
+consist of exploring for, developing and producing crude oil and natural gas; transporting crude oil and natural gas by pipelines; refining crude oil
+into finished petroleum products; and marketing crude oil, natural gas and refined petroleum products. Chemical operations include the manufacture
+and marketing of a wide range of chemicals for industrial uses.
+Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 31 December 2020 reporting periods and
+have not been early adopted by the Group. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future
+reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
+Organisation
+As part of the Reorganisation, certain of Sinopec Group Company's core oil and gas and chemical operations and businesses together with the
+related assets and liabilities were transferred to the Company. On 25 February 2000, in consideration for Sinopec Group Company transferring such
+oil and gas and chemical operations and businesses and the related assets and liabilities to the Company, the Company issued 68.8 billion domestic
+state-owned ordinary shares with a par value of RMB 1.00 each to Sinopec Group Company. The shares issued to Sinopec Group Company on 25
+February 2000 represented the entire registered and issued share capital of the Company on that date. The oil and gas and chemical operations and
+businesses transferred to the Company were related to (i) the exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas, (ii) the refining,
+transportation, storage and marketing of crude oil and petroleum products, and (iii) the production and sales of chemicals.
+Basis of preparation
+The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable IFRS as issued by the International
+Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). IFRS includes International Accounting Standards ("IAS") and related interpretations ("IFRIC"). These
+consolidated financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock
+Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted by the Group are set out in Note 2.
+The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for the adoption of new and amended standards as
+set out below.
+(a) New and amended standards and interpretations adopted by the Group
+On 28 May 2020, the IASB published IFRS 16 COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions Amendment, which has no material impact on the Group for
+31 December 2020 reporting periods.
+A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period. The Group did not have to change its accounting
+policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting these standards.
+The Company was established in the PRC on 25 February 2000 as a joint stock limited company as part of the reorganisation (the "Reorganisation")
+of China Petrochemical Corporation ("Sinopec Group Company"), the ultimate holding company of the Group and a ministry-level enterprise under
+the direct supervision of the State Council of the PRC. Prior to the incorporation of the Company, the oil and gas and chemical operations of the
+Group were carried on by oil administration bureaux, petrochemical and refining production enterprises and sales and marketing companies of
+Sinopec Group Company.

+(d) The capital reserve represents (i) the difference between the total amount of the par value of shares issued and the amount of the net assets transferred from Sinopec
+Group Company in connection with the Reorganisation (Note 1); and (ii) the difference between the considerations paid over or received the amount of the net assets of
+entities and related operations acquired from or sold to Sinopec Group Company and non-controlling interests.
+(c) As at 31 December 2020, the amount of retained earnings available for distribution was RMB 115,849 million (2019: RMB 130,645 million), being the amount
+determined in accordance with CASS. According to the Articles of Association of the Company, the amount of retained earnings available for distribution to shareholders
+of the Company is lower of the amount determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with CASS and the amount determined in accordance with the
+accounting policies complying with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").
+(b) The usage of the discretionary surplus reserve is similar to that of statutory surplus reserve.
+During the year ended 31 December 2020, the Company transferred RMB 1,857 million (2019: RMB 3,745 million) to the statutory surplus reserve, being 10% of the
+current year's net profit determined in accordance with the accounting policies complying with CASS.
+(a) According to the PRC Company Law and the Articles of Association of the Company, the Company is required to transfer 10% of its net profit determined in accordance
+with the accounting policies complying with Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("CASS"), adopted by the Group to statutory surplus reserve. In the event
+that the reserve balance reaches 50% of the registered capital, no transfer is required. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of a dividend to
+shareholders. Statutory surplus reserve can be used to make good previous years' losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing of new shares to
+shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the balance after such issue is
+not less than 25% of the registered capital.

+Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill arising on a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating
+unit, or groups of cash-generating units, that is expected to benefit the synergies of the combination and is tested annually for impairment
+(Note 2(n)). In respect of associates or joint ventures, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the interest in the
+associate or joint venture and the investment as a whole is tested for impairment whenever there is objective evidence of impairment (Note 2(n)).
+Prior to 1 January 2008, the acquisition of the non-controlling interests of a consolidated subsidiary was accounted for using the acquisition
+method whereby the difference between the cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired (on a proportionate
+share) was recognised as goodwill. From 1 January 2008, any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interest is adjusted
+(such as through an acquisition of the non-controlling interests) and the cash or other considerations paid is recognised in equity.
+Goodwill represents amounts arising on acquisition of subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures. Goodwill represents the difference between the
+cost of acquisition and the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired.
+(j) Financial assets
+(i) Goodwill
+Construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when the asset is substantially ready for its intended use.
+Construction in progress represents buildings, oil and gas properties, various plant and equipment under construction and pending installation,
+and is stated at cost less impairment losses (Note 2(n)). Cost comprises direct costs of construction as well as interest charges, and foreign
+exchange differences on related borrowed funds to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest charges, during the periods of
+construction.
+(h) Construction in progress
+Management estimates future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties with reference to engineering estimates after taking into
+consideration the anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with the industry practices and the future cash flows are adjusted
+to reflect such risks specific to the liability, as appropriate. These estimated future dismantlement costs are discounted at pre-tax risk-free rate
+and are capitalised as oil and gas properties, which are subsequently amortised as part of the costs of the oil and gas properties.
+The Group uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas producing activities. Under this method, costs of development
+wells, the related supporting equipment and proved mineral interests in properties are capitalised. The cost of exploratory wells is initially
+capitalised as construction in progress pending determination of whether the well has found proved reserves. The impairment of exploratory well
+costs occurs upon the determination that the well has not found proved reserves. The exploratory well costs are usually not carried as an asset
+for more than one year following completion of drilling, unless (i) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as
+a producing well if the required capital expenditure is made; (ii) drilling of the additional exploratory wells is under way or firmly planned for the
+near future; or (iii) other activities are being undertaken to sufficiently progress the assessing of the reserves and the economic and operating
+viability of the project. All other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, other dry hole costs and annual lease rentals to
+explore for or use oil and natural gas, are expensed as incurred. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-
+production method based on volumes produced and reserves.
+Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis
+between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Both the useful life of an asset and its residual value, if any, are reassessed annually.

+(i) Classification and measurement
+Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value. For financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, the relevant
+transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss. The transaction costs for other financial assets are included in the initially recognised
+amount. However, trade accounts receivable and bills receivable arising from sale of goods or rendering services, without significant financing
+component, are initially recognised based on the transaction price expected to be entitled by the Group.

+The Group recognises the loss allowance accrued or written back in profit or loss.
+For trade accounts receivable and bills receivable and financial assets at FVOCI related to revenue, the Group measures the loss allowance at
+an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.
+For financial instruments on the first stage and the second stage, and that have low credit risk, the Group calculates interest income
+according to carrying amount without deducting the impairment allowance and effective interest rate. For financial instruments on the third
+stage, interest income is calculated according to the carrying amount minus amortised cost after the provision of impairment allowance and
+effective interest rate.
+For financial instruments that have low credit risk at the balance sheet date, the Group assumes that there is no significant increase in credit
+risk since the initial recognition, and measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
+The Group classifies financial assets into different categories depending on the business model for managing the financial assets and the
+contractual terms of cash flows of the financial assets: a) financial assets measured at amortised cost, b) financial assets measured at fair
+value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"), c) financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. A contractual cash flow
+characteristic which could have only a de minimis effect, or could have an effect that is more than de minimis but is not genuine, does not
+affect the classification of the financial asset.
+The Group measures the expected credit losses of financial instruments on different stages at each balance sheet date. For financial
+instruments that have no significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition, on first stage, the Group measures the loss allowance
+at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk since the initial recognition of
+a financial instrument but credit impairment has not occurred, on second stage, the Group recognises a loss allowance at an amount equal
+to lifetime expected credit losses. If credit impairment has occurred since the initial recognition of a financial instrument, on third stage, the
+Group recognises a loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.
+The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on a financial asset that is measured at amortised cost and a debt
+instrument that is measured at FVOCI.
+(ii) Impairment
+In addition, the Group designates some equity instruments that are not held for trading as financial assets at FVOCI, are presented in
+financial assets at FVOCI. The relevant dividends of these financial assets are recognised in profit or loss. When derecognised, the cumulative
+gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is transferred to retained earnings.
+Equity instruments that the Group has no power to control, jointly control or exercise significant influence over, are measured at fair value
+through profit or loss and presented in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
+Equity instruments
+Amortised cost: The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows. The
+contractual cash flow characteristics are to give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on
+the principal amount outstanding. Interest income from these financial assets is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
+FVOCI: The business model for managing such financial assets by the Group are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for
+selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
+outstanding. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through other comprehensive income, except for the recognition of impairment
+gains or losses, foreign exchange gains and losses and interest income calculated using the effective interest rate method, which are
+recognised in profit or loss.
+Debt instruments held by the Group mainly includes cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, receivables. These
+financial assets are measured at amortised cost and FVOCI.
+Debt instruments
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past

+(b) Translation of foreign currencies
+A uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by those entities. All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions
+between combining entities or businesses are eliminated on consolidation. Transaction costs, including professional fees, registration fees,
+costs of furnishing information to shareholders, costs or losses incurred in combining operations of the previously separate businesses, etc.,
+incurred in relation to the common control combination that is to be accounted for by using merger accounting is recognised as an expense
+in the period in which it is incurred.
+The consolidated income statement includes the results of each of the combining entities or businesses from the earliest date presented or
+since the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the common control, where there is a shorter period, regardless
+of the date of the common control combination. The comparative amounts in the consolidated financial statements are presented as if the
+entities or businesses had been combined at the previous balance sheet date or when they first came under common control, whichever is
+shorter.
+The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the combining entities or businesses in which the common
+control combination occurs as if they had been combined from the date when the combining entities or businesses first came under the
+control of the controlling party. The net assets of the combining entities or businesses are combined using the existing book values from the
+controlling parties' perspective. No amount is recognised as consideration for goodwill or excess of acquirers' interest in the net fair value of
+acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost at the time of common control combination, to the extent of the
+continuation of the controlling party's interest.
+(iv) Merger accounting for common control combination
+Inter-company balances and transactions and any unrealised gains arising from inter-company transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
+Unrealised gains arising from transactions with associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the entity.
+Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
+(iii)Transactions eliminated on consolidation
+(a) Basis of consolidation (Continued)
+The presentation currency of the Group is Renminbi. Foreign currency transactions during the year are translated into Renminbi at the applicable
+rates of exchange quoted by the People's Bank of China ("PBOC") prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency monetary assets and

+Financial Statements (International)
+The Group's share of the post-acquisition, post-tax results of the investees and any impairment losses for the year are recognised in the
+consolidated income statement, whereas the Group's share of the post-acquisition, post-tax items of the investees' other comprehensive
+income is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
+Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for in the consolidated and separate financial statements using the equity method
+from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. Under the
+equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and adjusted thereafter for the post acquisition change in the Group's share of the
+investee's net assets and any impairment loss relating to the investment (Notes 2(i) and (n)).
+The investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and
+obligations each investor has rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the
+parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

+is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
+for the year ended 31 December 2020
+Exchange differences, other than those capitalised as construction in progress, are recognised as income or expense in the "finance costs"
+section of the consolidated income statement.
+When the Group ceases to have significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture, it is accounted for as a disposal of
+the entire interest in that investee, with a resulting gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former investee
+at the date when significant influence or joint control is lost is recognised at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial
+recognition of a financial asset (see Note 2(j)) or, when appropriate, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate.
+On disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation is reclassified from
+equity to the consolidated income statement when the profit or loss on disposal is recognised.
+The results of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the applicable rates quoted by the PBOC prevailing on the transaction dates.
+Balance sheet items, including goodwill arising on consolidation of foreign operations are translated into Renminbi at the closing foreign
+exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The income and expenses of foreign operation are translated into Renminbi at the spot exchange rates
+or an exchange rate that approximates the spot exchange rates on the transaction dates. The resulting exchange differences are recognised in

+Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are

+An item of property, plant and equipment is initially recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses (Note 2(n)). The cost
+of an asset comprises its purchase price, any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition and location for its intended
+use. The Group recognises in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when
+that cost is incurred, when it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the
+item can be measured reliably. All other expenditure is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement in the year in which it is
+incurred.

+Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost mainly includes the cost of purchase computed using the weighted
+average method and, in the case of work in progress and finished goods, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of production overheads.
+Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated
+costs necessary to make the sale.
+(e) Inventories
+Trade, bills and other receivables are recognised initially at their transaction price, unless they contain significant financing components when
+they are recognised at fair value. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses
+for bad and doubtful debts (Note 2(j)). Trade, bills and other receivables are derecognised if the Group's contractual rights to the cash flows
+from these financial assets expire or if the Group transfers these financial assets to another party without retaining control or substantially all

+respective government agencies without conditions or other contingencies attached to the receipts of the grants.
+(ii) Impairment losses on long-lived assets for the year ended 31 December 2020 primarily represent impairment losses recognised in the exploration and production
+("E&P") segment of RMB 8,495 million (2019: RMB 3 million), the chemicals segment of RMB 3,606 million (2019: RMB 17 million), the refining segment of RMB 1,923
+million (2019: RMB 245 million), and the marketing and distribution segment of RMB 536 million (2019: RMB 80 million). The impairment losses in the E&P segment
+were mainly the impairment losses of properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities. The primary factors resulting in the E&P segment
+impairment loss were low oil price outlook and downward revision of oil and gas reserve in certain fields. E&P segment determines recoverable amounts of properties,
+plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities, which include significant judgments and assumptions. The recoverable amounts were determined
+based on the present values of the expected future cash flows of the assets using a pre-tax discount rate 10.47% (2019: 10.47%). Further future downward revisions to
+the Group's oil price outlook would lead to further impairments which, in aggregate, are likely to be material. It is estimated that a general decrease of 5% in oil price,
+with all other variables held constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing
+activities by approximately RMB 4,548 million (2019: RMB 184 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in operating cost, with all other variables held
+constant, would result in additional impairment loss on the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB
+2,836 million (2019: RMB 180 million). It is estimated that a general increase of 5% in discount rate, with all other variables held constant, would result in additional
+impairment loss on the Group's properties, plant and equipment relating to oil and gas producing activities by approximately RMB 287 million (2019: RMB 7 million).
+The assets in the chemicals segment were written down because evidence indicates the economic performance of certain production facilities are worse than expected.

+If the amount that has been accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve is a loss and the Group expects that all or a portion of that loss will not
+be recovered in one or more future periods, the Group immediately reclassifies the amount that is not expected to be recovered into profit or
+loss.
+When the hedging relationship no longer meets the risk management objective on the basis of which it qualified for hedge accounting (ie the
+entity no longer pursues that risk management objective), or when a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised, or there is no
+longer an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument or the effect of credit risk starts to dominate the value
+changes that result from that economic relationship or no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the Group discontinues prospectively
+the hedge accounting treatments. If the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that amount remains in the cash flow hedge
+reserve and is accounted for as cash flow hedges. If the hedged future cash flows are no longer expected to occur, that amount is immediately
+reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. A hedged future cash flow that is no longer highly
+probable to occur may still be expected to occur, if the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur, that amount remains in the cash
+flow hedge reserve and is accounted for as cash flow hedges.
+(n) Impairment of assets
+The carrying amounts of assets, including property, plant and equipment, construction in progress, right-of-use assets and other assets, are
+reviewed at each balance sheet date to identify indicators that the assets may be impaired. These assets are tested for impairment whenever
+events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has occurred,
+the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated at each balance sheet date.
+The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to disposal and the value in use. In determining the value in use, expected
+future cash flows generated by the asset are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market
+assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent
+of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows independently (i.e.
+a cash-generating unit).
+The amount of the reduction is recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of
+cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then, to reduce
+the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its
+individual fair value less costs to disposal, or value in use, if determinable.
+Management assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset, except in the
+case of goodwill, in prior years may no longer exist. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used
+to determine the recoverable amount. A subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset, when the circumstances and events that led
+to the write-down or write-off cease to exist, is recognised as an income. The reversal is reduced by the amount that would have been recognised
+as depreciation had the write-down or write-off not occurred. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed.

+2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
+(o) Trade, bills and other payables
+For cash flow hedges, other than those covered by the preceding policy statements, that amount is reclassified from the cash flow hedge reserve
+to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged expected future cash flows affect profit
+or loss.
+Trade, bills and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost unless the effect of discounting would
+be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
+Interest-bearing borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-
+bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the consolidated
+income statement over the period of borrowings using the effective interest method.
+(q) Provisions and contingent liability
+A provision is recognised for liability of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a
+past event, when it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made.
+When it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is
+disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only
+be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability
+of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
+Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected to be incurred in
+respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas exploration and development activities.
+Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest
+cost, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision and oil and gas properties.
+(r) Revenue recognition
+Revenue arises in the course of the Group's ordinary activities, and increases in economic benefits in the form of inflows that result in an
+increase in equity, other than those relating to contributions from equity participants.
+The Group sells crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemical products, etc. Revenue is recognised according to the expected consideration
+amount, when a customer obtains control over the relevant goods or services. To determine whether a customer obtains control of a promised
+asset, the Group shall consider indicators of the transfer of control, which include, but are not limited to, the Group has a present right to
+payment for the asset; the Group has transferred physical possession of the asset to the customer; the customer has the significant risks and
+rewards of ownership of the asset; the customer has accepted the asset.
+Sales of goods
+Sales are recognised when control of the goods have transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer. Advance from
+customers but goods not yet delivered is recorded as contract liabilities and is recognised as revenues when a customer obtains control over the
+relevant goods.
+(s) Government grants
+Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the
+Group will comply with all attached conditions.
+Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs
+that they are intended to compensate.
+Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as deferred income and are
+credited to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the expected lives of the related assets.

+If a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, or a hedged forecast
+transaction for a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability becomes a firm commitment for which fair value hedge accounting is applied, the
+entity removes that amount from the cash flow hedge reserve and include it directly in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the asset or
+the liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and hence it does not affect other comprehensive income.
+The gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income.
+The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an ineffective hedge is recognised in profit or loss.
+(ii) The cumulative change in fair value (present value) of the hedged item (i.e. the present value of the cumulative change in the hedged
+expected future cash flows) from inception of the hedge.

+(iii)Derecognition
+The Group derecognises a financial asset when: a) the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial asset expires; b) the Group
+transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; c) the financial asset has been
+transferred and the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, but the
+Group has not retained control.
+On derecognition of equity instruments at FVOCI, the difference between the carrying amounts and the sum of the consideration received
+and any accumulated gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income, is recognised in retained earnings. While on
+derecognition of other financial assets, this difference is recognised in profit or loss.
+(k) Financial liabilities
+The Group, at initial recognition, classifies financial liabilities as either financial liabilities subsequently measured at amortised cost or financial
+liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
+The Group's financial liabilities are mainly financial liabilities measured at amortised cost, including trade accounts payable and bills payable,
+other payables, and loans, etc. These financial liabilities are initially measured at the amount of their fair value after deducting transaction costs
+and use the effective interest rate method for subsequent measurement.
+Where the present obligations of financial liabilities are completely or partially discharged, the Group derecognises these financial liabilities or
+discharged parts of obligations. The differences between the carrying amounts and the consideration received are recognised in profit or loss.
+(I) Determination of fair value for financial instruments
+If there is an active market for financial instruments, the quoted price in the active market is used to measure fair values of the financial
+instruments. If no active market exists for financial instruments, valuation techniques are used to measure fair values. In valuation, the Group
+adopts valuation techniques that are applicable in the current situation and have sufficient available data and other information to support it,
+and selects input values that are consistent with the asset or liability characteristics considered by market participants in the transaction of
+relevant assets or liabilities, and gives priority to relevant observable input values. Use of unobservable input values where relevant observable
+input values cannot be obtained or are not practicable.
+(m)Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
+Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. At each balance sheet date, the fair value is remeasured. The gain or loss on
+remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss, except where the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting.
+Hedge accounting is a method which recognises the offsetting effects on profit or loss (or other comprehensive income) of changes in the fair
+values of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the same accounting period, to represent the effect of risk management activities.
+Hedged items are the items that expose the Group to risks of changes in future cash flows and that are designated as being hedged and that
+must be reliably measurable. The Group's hedged items include a forecast transaction that is settled with an undetermined future market price
+and exposes the Group to risk of variability in cash flows, etc.
+A hedging instrument is a designated derivative whose changes in cash flows are expected to offset changes in cash flows of the hedged item.
+The hedging relationship meets all of the following hedge effectiveness requirements:
+(i) The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument from inception of the hedge; and
+As long as a cash flow hedge meets the qualifying criteria for hedge accounting, the separate component of equity associated with the hedged
+item (cash flow hedge reserve) is adjusted to the lower of the following (in absolute amounts):
+Cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with all, or a component
+of, a recognised asset or liability (such as all or some future interest payments on variable-rate debt) or a highly probable forecast transaction,
+and could affect profit or loss. Hedge effectiveness is determined at the inception of the hedge relationship, and through periodic prospective
+effectiveness assessments to ensure that an economic relationship exists between the hedged item and hedging instrument.

+(iii) The hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the entity actually hedges
+and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the entity actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item. However, that designation
+does not reflect an imbalance between the weightings of the hedged item and the hedging instrument.
+(ii) The effect of credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship.
+(i) There is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument, which shares a risk and that gives rise to opposite
+changes in fair value that tend to offset each other.

+Environmental expenditures that relate to current ongoing operations or to conditions caused by past operations are expensed as incurred.
+Liabilities related to future remediation costs are recorded when environmental assessments and/or cleanups are probable and the costs can
+be reliably estimated. As facts concerning environmental contingencies become known to the Group, the Group reassesses its position both with
+respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.
+(w) Research and development expense
+Research and development expenditures that cannot be capitalised are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Research and
+development expense amounted to RMB 10,086 million for the year ended 31 December 2020 (2019: RMB 9,450 million).
+(x) Leases
+A lease is a contract that a lessor transfers the right to use an identified asset for a period of time to a lessee in exchange for consideration.
+(i) As lessee
+The Group recognises a right-of-use asset at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group, and recognises a lease
+liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The lease payments include fixed payments, the exercise price of
+a purchase option if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and payments of penalties for terminating the lease if the lease
+term reflects the Group exercising that option, etc. Variable payments that are based on a percentage of sales are not included in the lease
+payments, and should be recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Lease liabilities to be paid within one year (including one year) from
+balance sheet date is presented in current liabilities.
+Right-of-use assets of the Group mainly comprise land. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost which comprises the amount of the initial
+measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, any initial direct costs incurred by the
+lessee, less any lease incentives received. The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the
+lease term on a straight-line basis. When the recoverable amount of a right-of-use asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount
+is reduced to the recoverable amount.
+Payments associated with short-term leases with lease terms within 12 months and all leases of low-value assets are recognised on a
+straight-line basis over the lease term as an expense in profit or loss or as cost of relevant assets, instead of recognising right-of-use assets
+and lease liabilities.
+A lessee shall account for a lease modification as a separate lease if both: (1) the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding
+the right to use one or more underlying assets; and (2) the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand-
+alone price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand-alone price to reflect the circumstances of the articular
+contract.
+For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, except for the practical expedient which applies only to rent
+concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the group determine the lease term of the modified lease at the
+effective date of the modification, and remeasure the lease liability by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate.
+The group decrease the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reflect the partial or full termination of the lease for lease modifications
+that decrease the scope or shorten the term of the lease, and shall recognise in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full
+termination of the lease. The group make a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset for all other lease modifications.
+(ii) As lessor
+Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is calculated on taxable income by applying the applicable tax rates. Deferred tax is
+provided using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
+reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available
+against which the assets can be utilised. Deferred tax is calculated on the basis of the enacted tax rates or substantially enacted tax rates that
+are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. The effect on deferred tax of any changes in tax rates is
+charged or credited to the consolidated income statement, except for the effect of a change in tax rate on the carrying amount of deferred tax
+assets and liabilities which were previously charged or credited to other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

+The contributions payable under the Group's retirement plans are recognised as an expense in the consolidated income statement as incurred
+and according to the contribution determined by the plans. Further information is set out in Note 40.
+(y) Employee benefits
+When the Group leases self-owned plants and buildings, equipment and machinery, lease income from an operating lease is recognised on a
+straight-line basis over the period of the lease. The Group recognises variable lease income which is based on a certain percentage of sales
+as rental income when occurred.
+A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset is a finance lease. An operating lease is a
+lease other than a finance lease.

+Key assumptions used for cash flow forecasts for these entities are the gross margin and sales volume. Management determined the budgeted gross
+margin based on the gross margin achieved in the period immediately before the budget period and management's expectation on the future trend
+of the prices of crude oil and petrochemical products. The sales volume was based on the production capacity and/or the sales volume in the period
+immediately before the budget period.
+Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchase over the fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities. The recoverable amounts of the
+above cash generating units are determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial
+budgets approved by management covering a one-year period and pre-tax discount rates primarily ranging from 11.4% to 13.4% (2019: 11.0% to
+11.9%). Cash flows beyond the one-year period are maintained constant. Based on the estimated recoverable amount, no major impairment loss
+was recognised.

+the construction of service stations and oil depots and investment commitments.
+Note:
+(i) The investment commitments of the Group is RMB 13,172 million (2019: RMB 6,100 million).
+Commitments to joint ventures
+Pursuant to certain of the joint venture agreements entered into by the Group, the Group is obliged to purchase products from the joint ventures
+based on market prices.
+Exploration and production licenses
+Exploration licenses for exploration activities are registered with the Ministry of Natural Resources. The maximum term of the Group's exploration
+licenses is 7 years, and may be renewed twice within 30 days prior to expiration of the original term with each renewal being for a two-year term.
+The Group is obligated to make progressive annual minimum exploration investment relating to the exploration blocks in respect of which the license
+is issued. The Ministry of Natural Resources also issues production licenses to the Group on the basis of the reserve reports approved by relevant
+authorities. The maximum term of a full production license is 30 years unless a special dispensation is given by the State Council. The maximum
+term of production licenses issued to the Group is 80 years as a special dispensation was given to the Group by the State Council. The Group's
+production license is renewable upon application by the Group 30 days prior to expiration.
+The Group is required to make payments of exploration license fees and production right usage fees to the Ministry of Natural Resources annually
+which are expensed. Expenses recognised were approximately RMB 231 million for the year ended 31 December 2020 (2019: RMB 179 million).
+Estimated future annual payments are as follows:
+Within one year
+Between one and two years
+Between two and three years

+Management monitors the conditions that are subject to the guarantees to identify whether it is probable that a loss will occur, and recognises any
+such losses under guarantees when those losses are reliably estimable. At 31 December 2020 and 2019, the Group estimates that there is no need
+to pay for the guarantees. Thus no liability has been accrued for a loss related to the Group's obligation under these guarantee arrangements.
+Note:
+(ii) The Group provided a guarantee in respect to standby credit facilities granted to Zhongtian Synergetic Energy by banks amount to RMB 17,050 million. As at 31
+December 2020, the amount withdrawn by Zhongtian Synergetic Energy and guaranteed by the Group was RMB 8,450 million (2019: RMB 10,140 million).

+37 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Continued)
+Environmental contingencies
+Under existing legislation, management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the financial
+position or operating results of the Group. The PRC government, however, has moved, and may move further towards more rigorous enforcement
+of applicable laws, and towards the adoption of more stringent environmental standards. Environmental liabilities are subject to considerable
+uncertainties which affect management's ability to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation efforts. These uncertainties include (i) the exact nature
+and extent of the contamination at various sites including, but not limited to refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals and land development
+areas, whether operating, closed or sold, (ii) the extent of required cleanup efforts, (iii) varying costs of alternative remediation strategies, (iv)
+changes in environmental remediation requirements, and (v) the identification of new remediation sites. The amount of such future cost is
+indeterminable due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination and the unknown timing and extent of the corrective
+actions that may be required. Accordingly, the outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot
+reasonably be estimated at present, and could be material.
+The Group paid normal routine pollutant discharge fees of approximately RMB 11,362 million in the consolidated financial statements for the year
+ended 31 December 2020 (2019: RMB 9,271 million).
+Legal contingencies
+The Group is defendant in certain lawsuits as well as the named party in other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management
+has assessed the likelihood of an unfavourable outcome of such contingencies, lawsuits or other proceedings and believes that any resulting
+liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, operating results or cash flows of the Group.
+38 BUSINESS COMBINATION
+Pursuant to the resolution passed at the Directors' meeting on 28 October 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement with Sinopec Assets
+Management Corporation ("SAMC") in relation to the formation of Sinopec Baling Petrochemical Co. Ltd ("Baling Petrochemical"). According to the
+Agreement, the Company and SAMC subscribed capital contribution with the business of Baling area respectively and some cash. After the capital
+injection, the Company remained to hold 55% of Baling Petrochemical's voting rights and was still able to control Baling Petrochemical.
+As Sinopec Group Company controls both the Company and SAMC, the transaction described above between Sinopec and SAMC has been
+accounted as business combination under common control. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of which SAMC subscribed have been accounted
+for at historical cost, and the consolidated financial statements of the Group prior to these acquisitions have been restated to include the results of
+operation and the assets and liabilities of Baling Branch of SAMC on a combined basis.
+Baling Petrochemical is mainly engaged in the production and sales of petrochemicals, chemical fibers, fertilizers, fine chemical products and other
+chemical products.
+The financial condition as at 31 December 2019 and the results of operation for the year ended 31 December 2019 previously reported by the
+Group have been restated, as set out below:

+structure of the Group, management may cause the Group to issue new shares, adjust the capital expenditure plan, sell assets to reduce debt, or
+adjust the proportion of short-term and long-term loans and bonds. Management monitors capital on the basis of the debt-to-capital ratio, which is
+calculated by dividing long-term loans (excluding current portion) and debentures payable, including long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group
+Company and fellow subsidiaries, by the total of equity attributable to shareholders of the Company and long-term loans (excluding current portion)
+and debentures payable, and liability-to-asset ratio, which is calculated by dividing total liabilities by total assets. Management's strategy is to make
+appropriate adjustments according to the Group's operating and investment needs and the changes of market conditions, and to maintain the debt-
+to-capital ratio and the liability-to-asset ratio of the Group at a range considered reasonable. As at 31 December 2020, the debt-to-capital ratio and

+that the operations will have sufficient future taxable profits over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible or utilised and whether the
+tax losses result from identifiable causes which are unlikely to recur. During the year ended 31 December 2020, write-down of deferred tax assets

+(1) Crude Oil & Natural Gas Market
+In 2020, international oil prices fluctuated
+and rose after a historic slump. The
+spot price of Platt's Brent for the year
+averaged USD 41.67 per barrel, down
+by 35.2% year on year. Along with the
+changes in China's energy mix, domestic.
+demand for natural gas continued to
+grow, but the growth rate declined due to
+COVID-19. Based on statistics released
+by the NDRC, domestic apparent
+consumption of natural gas reached 324
+billion cubic meters, up by 5.6% year on
+year.
+(2) Refined Oil Products Market
+In 2020, domestic refined oil products
+demand declined while supply exceeded
+the demand. According to the statistics
+released by NDRC, the apparent
+consumption of refined oil products
+(including gasoline, diesel and kerosene)
+was 331 million tonnes, down by 4.1%
+from the previous year. Among them, in
+the first half of the year, affected by the
+pandemic, the demand decreased by
+6.0%. In the second half, the demand
+improved with the steady resumption
+of work and production nationwide.
+For the whole year, gasoline, diesel
+and kerosene fell by 0.7%, 1.2% and
+30.4%, respectively. There were 13
+price adjustments for domestic refined
+oil products throughout the year with 8
+increases and 5 decreases.
+(3) Chemical Products Market
+In 2020, the demand grew rapidly for
+medical raw materials and packaging
+materials. The rapid recovery of exports
+in the second half also drove the growth
+in the demand for chemical products.
+Based on our statistics, domestic
+consumption of ethylene equivalent
+increased by 12.2% from the previous
+year, and the apparent consumption
+of synthetic resin, synthetic fiber and
+synthetic rubber rose by 8.9%, 3.3% and
+8.4%, respectively. The average margin
+of chemical products narrowed.

+(1) Exploration and Production
+In 2020, under the environment of low
+oil prices, we pressed ahead with high-
+quality exploration and profit-oriented
+development, accelerated the systematic
+integration of natural gas production,
+supply, storage and marketing, and
+achieved tangible results in maintaining
+oil production, increasing gas output and
+cutting cost. In exploration, we continued
+to strengthen risk exploration in strategic
+areas, oil and gas rich zones and shale
+resources, which led to new discoveries
+in Tarim Basin, Sichuan Basin and Bohai
+Bay Basin. In crude oil development, we
+efficiently proceeded with the capacity
+building of Shunbei and other oilfields,
+strengthened fine development in mature
+fields, intensified EOR technology
+breakthrough and application, and
+consolidated the basis for steady
+production. In natural gas development,
+we constantly pushed forward capacity
+building in Weirong and West Sichuan
+gas fields, expanded the market and
+sales, and continuously improved the
+sales volume with a record high domestic
+market share. The Company's production
+of oil and gas reached 459.02 million
+barrels of oil equivalent, with domestic
+crude production reaching 249.52 million
+barrels and natural gas production
+totalled 1,072.3 billion cubic feet, up by
+2.3% year on year.

+BUSINESS REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
+BUSINESS REVIEW
+In 2020, the global economy suffered a serious
+recession due to the COVID-19 outbreak and
+rapid spread worldwide. China took the lead
+in controlling the spread of the pandemic in
+the world. Its economic growth has picked up
+quarter by quarter since the second quarter, with
+the annual gross domestic product (GDP) up by
+2.3% year-on-year. The international oil prices
+experienced a historic slump, the global demand
+for oil decreased significantly, the domestic
+demand for refined oil products decreased, and
+the growth rate of natural gas demand slowed
+down, while demand for chemical products still
+maintained a rapid growth.
+Confronted with severe challenges, the Company
+coordinated pandemic prevention and control,
+production and operation, made rapid response,
+took the initiative to launch "one-hundred day
+campaign of overcoming the difficulties and
+creating efficiency" and a follow-up campaign,
+and achieved remarkable results. On the one
+hand, we made full use of our resources and
+technological advantages to make a positive
+contribution to the pandemic prevention and
+control; on the other hand, we seized the
+favorable opportunity of domestic economic
+recovery, vigorously increased the production
+of marketable and high-profit products and
+achieved substantial improvement in production,
+operation and profitability in the second half of
+the year. Meanwhile, the Company completed
+the transaction of pipeline assets, realizing good
+appreciation in asset value.

+The segments were determined primarily because the Group manages its exploration and production, refining, marketing and distribution,
+chemicals, and corporate and others businesses separately. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and/
+or distribute distinct products with different production processes and due to their distinct operating and gross margin characteristics.
+(v) Corporate and others, which largely comprises the trading activities of the import and export companies of the Group and research and

+(iii) Marketing and distribution, which owns and operates oil depots and service stations in the PRC, and distributes and sells refined petroleum
+products (mainly gasoline and diesel) in the PRC through wholesale and retail sales networks.
+(ii) Refining, which processes and purifies crude oil, that is sourced from the exploration and production segment of the Group and external
+suppliers, and manufactures and sells petroleum products to the chemicals and marketing and distribution segments of the Group and external
+customers.
+(i) Exploration and production, which explores and develops oil fields, produces crude oil and natural gas and sells such products to the refining
+segment of the Group and external customers.
+In a manner consistent with the way in which information is reported internally to the Group's chief operating decision maker for the purposes of
+resource allocation and performance assessment, the Group has identified the following five reportable segments. No operating segments have been
+aggregated to form the following reportable segments.
+Segment information is presented in respect of the Group's business segments. The format is based on the Group's management and internal

+43 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES
+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2020
+Overview
+The Group has exposure to the following risks from its uses of financial instruments:
+⚫ credit risk;
+• liquidity risk; and
+• market risk.
+The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment, oversight of the Group's risk management framework, and developing and
+monitoring the Group's risk management policies.
+The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, and set appropriate risk limits and
+controls to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
+conditions and the Group's activities. The Group, through its training and management controls and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and
+constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. Internal audit department undertakes both regular
+and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Group's audit committee.
+Financial assets of the Group include cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, financial assets at fair value through profit
+or loss, derivative financial assets, trade accounts receivable, amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, amounts due from
+associates and joint ventures, financial assets at FVOCI and other receivables. Financial liabilities of the Group include short-term debts, loans from
+Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, derivative financial liabilities, trade accounts payable and bills payable, amounts due to Sinopec
+Group Company and fellow subsidiaries, amounts due to associates and joint ventures, other payables, long-term debts and lease liabilities.

+Credit risk
+(i) Risk management
+Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
+obligations, and arises principally from the Group's deposits placed with financial institutions (including structured deposits) and receivables
+from customers. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Group primarily places cash deposits only with large financial
+institutions in the PRC with acceptable credit ratings. The majority of the Group's trade accounts receivable relate to sales of petroleum and
+chemical products to related parties and third parties operating in the petroleum and chemical industries. No single customer accounted for
+greater than 10% of total trade accounts receivable at 31 December 2020, except the amounts due from Sinopec Group Company and fellow
+subsidiaries. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of the Group's customers' financial condition and generally does not require
+collateral on trade accounts receivable. The Group maintains an impairment loss for doubtful accounts and actual losses have been within
+management's expectations.
+The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, time deposits with financial institutions, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,
+derivative financial assets, trade accounts receivable, financial assets at FVOCI and other receivables, represent the Group's maximum exposure
+to credit risk in relation to financial assets.

+As at 31 December 2020, the Group has standby credit facilities with several PRC financial institutions which provide borrowings up to RMB
+443,966 million (2019: RMB 379,649 million) on an unsecured basis, at a weighted average interest rate of 2.85% per annum (2019: 3.57%).
+As at 31 December 2020, the Group's outstanding borrowings under these facilities were RMB 4,041 million (2019: RMB 2,947 million) and were
+included in debts.
+(ii) Impairment of financial assets
+The Group's primary type of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss model is trade accounts receivable, financial assets at
+FVOCI and other receivables.
+The Group's cash deposits are placed only with large financial institutions with acceptable credit ratings, and there is no material impairment
+loss identified.
+For trade accounts receivable and financial assets at FVOCI, the Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit
+losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade accounts receivable and financial assets at FVOCI.
+To measure the expected credit losses, trade accounts receivable and financial assets at FVOCI have been grouped based on shared credit risk
+characteristics and the days past due.
+The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before 31 December 2020 or 31 December 2019,
+respectively, and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current
+and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables.
+The detailed analysis of trade accounts receivable and financial assets at FVOCI, based on which the Group generated its payment profile is
+listed in Notes 25 and 26.
+All of the entity's other receivables are considered to have low credit risk, and the loss allowance recognised during the period was therefore
+limited to 12 months expected losses. The Group considers 'low credit risk' for other receivables when they have a low risk of default and the
+issuer has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term.

+43 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES (Continued)
+Liquidity risk
+Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach to managing
+liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed
+conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group's reputation. Management prepares monthly cash flow budget
+to ensure that the Group will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group arranges and negotiates
+financing with financial institutions and maintains a certain level of standby credit facilities to reduce the Group's liquidity risk.
+The following table sets out the remaining contractual maturities at the balance sheet date of the Group's financial liabilities, which are based on
+contractual undiscounted cash flows (including interest payments computed using contractual rates or, if floating, based on prevailing rates current
+at the balance sheet date) and the earliest date the Group would be required to repay:

+Market risk
+Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The objective of market risk management is
+to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return on risk.
+(a) Currency risk
+Currency risk arises on financial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in which they are measured.
+The Group's currency risk exposure primarily relates to short-term and long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow
+subsidiaries denominated in USD and lease liabilities denominated in Singapore Dollar ("SGD"). The Group enters into foreign exchange contracts
+to manage its currency risk exposure.
+Included primarily in short-term and long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries of the Group and lease
+liabilities are the following amounts denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity to which they relate:

+A 5 percent strengthening/weakening of RMB against the following currencies at 31 December 2020 and 2019 would have increased/decreased

+Fair values
+(i) Financial instruments carried at fair value
+The following table presents the carrying value of financial instruments measured at fair value at the balance sheet date across the three levels
+of the fair value hierarchy defined in IFRS 7, ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures', with the fair value of each financial instrument categorised in
+its entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to that fair value measurement. The levels are defined as follows:
+•
+Level 1 (highest level): fair values measured using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments.
+•
+Level 2: fair values measured using quoted prices in active markets for similar financial instruments, or using valuation techniques in which
+all significant inputs are directly or indirectly based on observable market data.
+•
+Level 3 (lowest level): fair values measured using valuation techniques in which any significant input is not based on observable market data.

+Other than the amounts as disclosed above, the amounts of other financial assets and liabilities of the Group are substantially denominated in
+the functional currency of respective entity within the Group.
+The Group's interest rate risk exposure arises primarily from its short-term and long-term debts and loans from Sinopec Group Company and
+fellow subsidiaries. Debts bearing interest at variable rates and at fixed rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value
+interest rate risk respectively. The interest rates and terms of repayment of short-term and long-term debts, and loans from Sinopec Group
+Company and fellow subsidiaries of the Group are disclosed in Note 30.
+As at 31 December 2020, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 100 basis points in variable interest rates, with all other variables
+held constant, would decrease/increase the Group's profit for the year by approximately RMB 245 million (2019: decrease/increase by
+approximately RMB 352 million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change of interest rates was applied to the
+Group's debts outstanding at the balance sheet date with exposure to cash flow interest rate risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis
+for 2019.
+(c) Commodity price risk
+The Group engages in oil and gas operations and is exposed to commodity price risk related to price volatility of crude oil, refined oil products
+and chemical products. The fluctuations in prices of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products could have significant impact on the
+Group. The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including commodity futures and swaps contracts, to manage a portion of this risk.
+As at 31 December 2020, the Group had certain commodity contracts of crude oil, refined oil products and chemical products designated
+as qualified cash flow hedges and economic hedges. As at 31 December 2020, the fair value of such derivative hedging financial instruments
+is derivative financial assets of RMB 12,353 million (2019: RMB 788 million) and derivative financial liabilities of RMB 4,808 million (2019:
+RMB 2,728 million).
+As at 31 December 2020, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of USD 10 per barrel in basic price of derivative financial instruments,
+with all other variables held constant, would impact the fair value of derivative financial instruments, which would increase/decrease the Group's
+profit for the year by approximately RMB 3,592 million (2019: increase/decrease RMB 3,134 million), and increase/decrease the Group's other
+reserves by approximately RMB 10,379 million (2019: decrease/increase RMB 4,289 million). This sensitivity analysis has been determined
+assuming that the change in prices had occurred at the balance sheet date and the change was applied to the Group's derivative financial
+instruments at that date with exposure to commodity price risk. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2019.

+(C) DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
+THE ACCOUNTING POLICIES COMPLYING WITH CASS AND IFRS (UNAUDITED)
+Other than the differences in the classifications of certain financial statements captions and the accounting for the items described below, there are no
+material differences between the Group's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting policies complying with CASS
+and IFRS. The reconciliation presented below is included as supplemental information, is not required as part of the basic financial statements and
+does not include differences related to classification, presentation or disclosures. Such information has not been subject to independent audit or review.
+The major differences are:
+(i) GOVERNMENT GRANTS
+Under CASs, grants from the government are credited to capital reserve if required by relevant governmental regulations. Under IFRS, government
+grants relating to the purchase of fixed assets are recognised as deferred income and are transferred to the income statement over the useful life of
+these assets.
+(ii) SAFETY PRODUCTION FUND
+Under CASS, safety production fund should be recognised in profit or loss with a corresponding increase in reserve according to PRC regulations.
+Such reserve is reduced for expenses incurred for safety production purposes or, when safety production related fixed assets are purchased, is
+reduced by the purchased cost with a corresponding increase in the accumulated depreciation. Such fixed assets are not depreciated thereafter.
+Under IFRS, payments are expensed as incurred, or capitalised as fixed assets and depreciated according to applicable depreciation methods.
+Effects of major differences between the shareholders' equity under CASS and the total equity under IFRS are analysed as follows:

+(D) SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ON OIL AND GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
+Table IV: Reserve quantities information
+The Group's and its equity method investments' estimated net proved underground oil and gas reserves and changes thereto for the years ended 31
+December 2020 and 2019 are shown in the following table.
+Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable
+certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods,
+and government regulation before contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain,
+regardless of whether the estimate is a deterministic estimate or probabilistic estimate. Due to the inherent uncertainties and the limited nature of
+reservoir data, estimates of underground reserves are subject to change as additional information becomes available.
+Proved developed oil and gas reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and
+operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared with the cost of a new well.
+"Net" reserves exclude royalties and interests owned by others and reflect contractual arrangements and obligation of rental fee in effect at the time of
+the estimate.

+The information provided does not represent management's estimate of the Group's and its equity method investments' expected future cash flows or
+value of proved oil and gas reserves. Estimates of proved reserve quantities are imprecise and change over time as new information becomes available.
+Moreover, probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the calculations. The arbitrary valuation requires
+assumptions as to the timing and amount of future development and production costs. The calculations are made for the years ended 31 December
+2020 and 2019 and should not be relied upon as an indication of the Group's and its equity method investments' future cash flows or value of its oil
+and gas reserves.
+The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, related to the above proved oil and gas reserves, is calculated in accordance with
+the requirements of "ASC Topic 932 Extractive Activities - Oil and Gas", "SEC Rule 4-10 of Regulation S-X", and "Industrial Information Disclosure
+Guidelines for Public Company - No.8 Oil and Gas Exploitation". Estimated future cash inflows from production are computed by applying the average,
+first-day-of-the-month price adjusted for differential for oil and gas during the twelve-month period before the ending date of the period covered by
+the report to year-end quantities of estimated net proved reserves. Future price changes are limited to those provided by contractual arrangements in
+existence at the end of each reporting year. Future development and production costs are those estimated future expenditures necessary to develop and
+produce year-end estimated proved reserves based on year-end cost indices, assuming continuation of year-end economic conditions. Estimated future
+income taxes are calculated by applying appropriate year-end statutory tax rates to estimated future pre-tax net cash flows, less the tax basis of related
+assets. Discounted future net cash flows are calculated using 10% discount factors. This discounting requires a year-by-year estimate of when the future
+expenditure will be incurred and when the reserves will be produced.

+Oil and gas properties and reserves
+The accounting for the exploration and production's oil and gas activities is subject to accounting rules that are unique to the oil and gas industry.
+There are two methods to account for oil and gas business activities, the successful efforts method and the full cost method. The Group has elected
+to use the successful efforts method. The successful efforts method reflects the volatility that is inherent in exploring for mineral resources in that
+costs of unsuccessful exploratory efforts are charged to expense as they are incurred. These costs primarily include dry hole costs, seismic costs
+and other exploratory costs. Under the full cost method, these costs are capitalised and written-off or depreciated over time.
+Engineering estimates of the Group's oil and gas reserves are inherently imprecise and represent only approximate amounts because of the
+subjective judgements involved in developing such information. There are authoritative guidelines regarding the engineering criteria that have to be
+met before estimated oil and gas reserves can be designated as "proved". Proved and proved developed reserves estimates are updated at least
+annually and take into account recent production and technical information about each field. In addition, as prices and cost levels change from
+year to year, the estimates of proved and proved developed reserves also change. This change is considered a change in estimate for accounting
+purposes and is reflected on a prospective basis in relation to depreciation rates. Oil and gas reserves have a direct impact on the assessment of
+the recoverability of the carrying amounts of oil and gas properties reported in the financial statements. If proved reserves estimates are revised
+downwards, earnings could be affected by changes in depreciation expense or an immediate write-down of the property's carrying amount.
+Future dismantlement costs for oil and gas properties are estimated with reference to engineering estimates after taking into consideration the
+anticipated method of dismantlement required in accordance with industry practices in similar geographic area, including estimation of economic
+life of oil and gas properties, technology and price level. The present values of these estimated future dismantlement costs are capitalised as oil and
+gas properties with equivalent amounts recognised as provisions for dismantlement costs.
+Despite the inherent imprecision in these engineering estimates, these estimates are used in determining depreciation expense, impairment loss
+and future dismantlement costs. Capitalised costs of proved oil and gas properties are amortised on a unit-of-production method based on volumes
+produced and reserves.

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2020
+44 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Continued)
+Impairment for long-lived assets
+If circumstances indicate that the net book value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the asset may be considered “impaired", and an
+impairment loss may be recognised in accordance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets". The carrying amounts of long-lived assets are reviewed
+periodically in order to assess whether the recoverable amounts have declined below the carrying amounts. These assets are tested for impairment
+whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their recorded carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When such a decline has
+occurred, the carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated annually. The recoverable
+amount is the greater of the net selling price and the value in use. It is difficult to precisely estimate selling price because quoted market prices for
+the Group's assets or cash-generating units are not readily available. In determining the value in use, expected cash flows generated by the asset or
+the cash-generating units are discounted to their present value, which requires significant judgement relating to level of sale volume, selling price,
+amount of operating costs and discount rate. Management uses all readily available information in determining an amount that is a reasonable
+approximation of recoverable amount, including estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections of sale volume, selling
+price, amount of operating costs and discount rate.
+The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgements and other uncertainties affecting application of such policies and the sensitivity of
+reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing the consolidated financial statements. The
+significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 2. Management believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant
+judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
+Depreciation
+Measurement of expected credit losses
+The Group measures and recognises expected credit losses, considering reasonable and supportable information about the relevant past events,
+current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Group regularly monitors and reviews the assumptions used for estimating
+expected credit losses.
+Allowance for diminution in value of inventories
+If the costs of inventories become higher than their net realisable values, an allowance for diminution in value of inventories is recognised. Net
+realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated
+costs necessary to make the sale. Management bases the estimates on all available information, including the current market prices of the finished
+goods and raw materials, and historical operating costs. If the actual selling prices were to be lower or the costs of completion were to be higher
+than estimated, the actual allowance for diminution in value of inventories could be higher than estimated.
+45 PARENT AND ULTIMATE HOLDING COMPANY
+The directors consider the parent and ultimate holding company of the Group as at 31 December 2020 is Sinopec Group Company, a state-owned
+enterprise established in the PRC. This entity does not produce financial statements available for public use.

+NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
+for the year ended 31 December 2020
+Property, plant and equipment, other than oil and gas properties, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the
+assets, after taking into account the estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives of the assets at least annually in order
+to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives are based on the Group's historical
+experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation expense for future periods is adjusted if
+there are significant changes from previous estimates.
+875
+The Group's financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that underlie the
+preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Management bases the assumptions and estimates on historical experience and on
+various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable and which form the basis for making judgements about matters that are not readily
+apparent from other sources. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates as facts,
+circumstances and conditions change.
+Except for the above items, the financial assets and liabilities of the Group are carried at amounts not materially different from their fair values
+at 31 December 2020 and 2019.

+Fair values (Continued)
+(ii) Fair values of financial instruments carried at other than fair value
+The disclosures of the fair value estimates, and their methods and assumptions of the Group's financial instruments, are made to comply
+with the requirements of IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements and related
+notes. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Group using market information and valuation methodologies considered
+appropriate. However, considerable judgement is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the
+estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Group could realise in a current market exchange. The use of
+different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
+The fair values of the Group's financial instruments carried at other than fair value (other than long-term indebtedness and investments in
+unquoted equity securities) approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term
+indebtedness are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market interest rates offered to the Group for debt with substantially
+the same characteristic and maturities range from 0.77% to 4.65% (2019: 2.37% to 4.90%). The following table presents the carrying amount
+and fair value of the Group's long-term indebtedness other than loans from Sinopec Group Company and fellow subsidiaries at 31 December
+2020 and 2019:

+The Group has not developed an internal valuation model necessary to estimate the fair values of loans from Sinopec Group Company and
+fellow subsidiaries as it is not considered practicable to estimate their fair values because the cost of obtaining discount and borrowing rates for
+comparable borrowings would be excessive based on the Reorganisation of the Group, the Group's existing capital structure and the terms of the
+borrowings.

+In 2020, refining margin was RMB 240
+per tonne, decreased by RMB 126 per
+tonne compared with 2019. This was
+mainly due to the significant shrink of
+margin in kerosene and other refined
+petroleum products which was impacted
+by the COVID-19 outbreak and market
+demand recession as well as inventory
+losses of crude oil and refined products
+due to crude oil price slump.
+In 2020, the refining cash operating cost
+(defined as operating expenses less the
+processing cost of crude oil and refining
+feedstock, depreciation and amortisation,
+taxes other than income tax and other
+operating expenses, then divided by
+the throughput of crude oil and refining
+feedstock) was RMB 181.48 per tonne,
+an increase of 2.1% over 2019, which
+I was mainly because the unit cost
+increased as a result of the throughput
+decreased compared with last year.
+In 2020, the operating loss of the
+segment totaled RMB 5.6 billion,
+representing a decline of RMB 36.2
+billion compared with 2019.

+2019. This was mainly attributed to the
+decrease of realised price in crude oil,
+natural gas and LNG.
+In 2020, the segment sold 34.52 million
+tonnes of crude oil, representing an
+increase of 0.5% over 2019. Natural
+gas sales volume was 27.8 billion cubic
+meters (bcm), representing a decrease

+respectively over 2019.
+In 2020, the operating expenses of
+this segment was RMB 184.2 billion,
+representing a decrease of 8.5% over
+2019. That was mainly due to the
+following:
+•

+CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION Annual Report 2020
+Beijing, China, 26 March 2021
+Dear Shareholders:
+Chairman
+By Order of the Board
+Cyber-security risks: the Company has
+a well-established network safety system,
+information infrastructure and operation
+system, and network safety information
+platform, devotes significant resources to
+protecting our digital infrastructure and
+data against cyber-attacks. However, if
+our systems against cyber-security risk
+are proved to be ineffective, we could be
+adversely affected by, among other things,
+disruptions to our business operations, and
+loss of proprietary information, including,
+intellectual property, financial information
+and employer and customer data, thus
+causing harm to our personnel, property,
+environment and reputation. As cyber-
+security attacks continue to evolve, we may
+be required to expend additional resources
+to enhance our protective measures against
+cyber-security breaches.
+Currency risks: At present, China implements
+an administered floating exchange rate
+regime based on market supply and demand
+which is regulated with reference to a basket
+of currencies in terms of the exchange rate
+of Renminbi. As the Company purchases
+a significant portion of crude oil in foreign
+currency which is based on US dollar-
+denominated prices, the realized price of
+crude oil is based on international crude
+oil price. Despite the fact that, the price
+of the domestic refined oil products will
+change as the exchange rate of the Renminbi
+changes according to the pricing mechanism
+for the domestic refined oil products, and
+the price of other domestic petrochemical
+products will also be influenced by the price
+of the imported products, which to a large
+extent, smooths the impact of the Renminbi
+exchange rate on the processing and sales
+of the Company's crude oil refined products.
+However, the fluctuation of the Renminbi
+exchange rate will still have an effect on the
+income of the upstream sector.
+of the host country's laws and regulations.
+In light of the complicated factors such as
+imbalance of global economy, competitiveness
+of industry and trade structure, exclusiveness
+of regional trading blocs, polarisation of
+benefits distribution in trade, and politicisation
+of economic and trade issues, including
+sanctions, barriers to entry, instability in
+the financial and taxation policies, contract
+defaults, tax dispute, the Company's risks with
+regard to overseas business development and
+management could be increased.
+Risks with regard to overseas business
+development and management: The Company
+engages in oil and gas exploration, refining and
+chemical, warehouse logistics and international
+trading businesses in some regions outside
+China. The Company's overseas businesses
+and assets are subject to the jurisdiction
+Investment risks: Petroleum and chemical
+sector is a capital intensive industry.
+Although the Company has adopted a
+prudent investment strategy, as stipulated
+and enforced by the new investment
+decision-making procedures and rules in
+2020, conducted rigorous feasibility study on
+each investment project, which consists of
+special verifications in raw material market,
+technical scheme, profitability, safety and
+environmental protection, legal compliance,
+etc., certain investment risks will still exist
+and expected returns may not be achieved
+due to major changes in factors such as
+market environment, prices of equipment
+and raw materials, and construction period
+during the implementation of the projects.
+Risks with regard to the operation and
+natural disasters: The process of petroleum
+chemical production is exposed to the
+high risks of inflammation, explosion and
+environmental pollution and is vulnerable
+to extreme natural disasters. Such
+contingencies may cause serious impacts
+to the society, major financial losses to the
+Company and grievous injuries to people.
+The Company has always been laying great
+emphasis on the safety production, and has
+implemented a strict HSSE management
+system as an effort to avoid such risks as
+far as possible. Meanwhile, the main assets
+and inventories of the Company as well as
+the possibility of damage to a third party
+have been insured. However, such measures
+may not shield the Company from financial
+losses or adverse impact resulting from such
+contingencies.
+Zhang Yuzhuo
+In 2020, the Board of Supervisors and
+each Supervisor of Sinopec Corp. diligently
+performed their supervision responsibilities,
+actively participated in the supervision process
+of decision making, carefully reviewed and
+effectively supervised the major decisions of

+Annual Report 2020 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION

+Firstly, the Board and the senior management
+of Sinopec Corp. performed their responsibilities
+pursuant to relevant laws and regulations,
+and implemented efficient management. The
+Board diligently fulfilled its obligations and
+exercised its rights under the PRC Company
+Law and the Articles of Association, and made
+informed decisions on major issues. The senior
+management diligently executed the resolutions
+approved by the Board, made all-out efforts to
+tap potentials and enhance efficiency, optimise
+business structures, committed to achieving
+the target of business operations set by the
+Board. During the reporting period, the Board of
+Supervisors did not discover any behavior of any
+Director or senior management which violated
+laws, regulations, or the Articles of Association,
+or was detrimental to the interests of Sinopec
+Corp. or its shareholders.
+Through supervision and inspection on the
+production and operation management as
+well as financial management conditions, the
+Board of Supervisors and all the Supervisors
+conclude that in 2020, facing the unfavourable
+conditions such as the outbreak of COVID-19
+and a significant decline in crude oil price,
+the Company conscientiously implemented
+the decision-making and deployment of the
+Board of Directors, focused on prevention of
+COVID-19 and business operation targets,
+consecutively implemented “100-day overcoming
+difficulties and creating efficiency" campaign
+and subsequent campaigns to improve
+performance, maintaining the steadiness of
+business operations, and achieving better than
+expectation business performance. The Board of
+Supervisors had no objection to the supervised
+issues during this reporting period.
+In addition, the Supervisors attended the general
+meetings of shareholders and attended meetings
+of the Board. The Board of Supervisors also
+organised some of the Supervisors to attend
+the trainings for directors and supervisors of
+listed companies organised by Beijing Securities
+Supervisory Bureau under CSRC, which have
+further improved the Supervisors' capabilities in
+performing supervisory duties.
+On 28 October 2020, the 11th meeting of the

+Risks with regard to the external purchase of
+crude oil: A significant amount of crude oil as
+needed by the Company is satisfied through
+external purchases. In recent years, especially
+influenced by the mismatch between supply
+and demand of crude oil, geopolitics, global
+economic growth and other factors, the prices
+of crude oil fluctuate sharply. Additionally, the
+supply of crude oil may even be interrupted
+due to some extreme major incidents in
+certain regions. Although the Company
+has taken flexible countermeasures, it may
+not fully avoid risks associated with any
+significant fluctuation of international crude
+oil prices and sudden disruption of supply of
+crude oil from certain regions.
+15 DONATIONS
+may decline over time which may adversely
+affect the Company's financial situation and
+operation performance.
+Risks with regard to the changes from
+environmental legislation requirements:
+Our production activities generate waste
+liquids, gases and solids. The Company has
+built up the supporting effluent treatment
+systems to prevent and reduce the pollution
+to the environment. However, the relevant
+government authorities may issue and
+implement much stricter environmental
+protection laws and regulations, adopt much
+stricter environment protection standards.

+may increase expenses in relation to the
+environment protection accordingly.

+23 OIL & GAS RESERVE APPRAISAL
+PRINCIPLES
+We manage our reserves estimation through
+a two-tier management system. Our Oil
+and Natural Gas Reserves Management
+Committee, or RMC, at the headquarters
+level oversees the overall reserves estimation
+process including organisation, coordination,
+monitoring and major decision-making,
+and reviews the reserves estimation of
+our Company. Each of our branches has
+a reserves management committee that
+manages and coordinates the reserves
+estimation, organises the estimation process
+and reviews the reserve estimation report at
+the branch level, being responsible to the
+RMC of the Company.
+Our RMC consists of the senior management
+of the Company, related departments of
+headquarters, Petroleum Exploration and
+Production Research Institute of Sinopec
+(PEPRIS) and senior managers of oilfield
+branches. Mr. Liu Hongbin, the Chairman
+of RMC is Senior Vice President of Sinopec
+Corp., with over 30 years of experience
+in oil and gas industry. A majority of our
+RMC members hold master's or Ph.D.
+degrees, and have an average of more
+than 20 years of technical experience in
+relevant professional fields, such as geology,
+engineering and economics.
+and petrochemicals sector, the petroleum
+and petrochemical industries in China are
+still subject to entry regulations to a certain
+degree, which include: issuing licenses in
+relation to exploration and development of
+crude oil and natural gas, issuing business
+licenses for trading crude oil and refined
+oil, setting caps for retail prices of gasoline,
+diesel and other oil products, the imposition
+of the special oil income levy; the formulation
+of refined oil import and export quotas and
+procedures; the formulation of safety, quality
+and environmental protection standards
+and the formulation of energy conservation
+policies. In addition, the changes which have
+occurred or might occur in macroeconomic
+and industry policies such as the opening up
+of crude oil import licenses and the right of
+tenure; reforming and improvement in pricing
+mechanism of natural gas, cost supervision
+of gas pipeline and access to third party;
+cancellation of qualification approval of the
+wholesale and storage of refined oil business,
+decentralisation of retail business authorisation
+of refined oil products to regional and city
+level government, further improvement in
+pricing mechanism of refined oil products,
+gas stations investment being fully opened to
+foreign investment; and reforming in resource
+tax and environmental tax, etc. Such changes
+might further intensify market competition
+and have certain effects on the operations and
+profitability of the Company.
+Annual Report 2020 CHINA PETROLEUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION
+56
+Risks from the macroeconomic policies
+and government regulation: Although the
+Chinese government is gradually liberalizing
+the market entry regulations on petroleum
+Risks with regard to the cyclical effects
+from the industry: The majority of the
+Company's operating income comes from
+the sales of refined oil products and
+petrochemical products, and part of those
+businesses and their related products are
+cyclic and are sensitive to macro-economy,
+cyclic changes of regional and global
+economy, the changes of the production
+capacity and output, demand of consumers,
+prices and supply of the raw materials, as
+well as prices and supply of the alternative
+products etc. Although the Company is
+an integrated company with upstream,
+midstream and downstream operations, it
+can only counteract the adverse influences of
+industry cycle to a certain extent.
+Risks with regard to the variations from
+macroeconomic situation: The business
+results of the Company are closely related
+to China's and global economic situation.
+The development of Chinese economy has
+entered New Normal. Impacted by COVID-19,
+with counter-globalisation emerging, aging
+population accelerating, climate change
+and environmental problem restriction etc.,
+world economy recovery remains difficult
+and tortuous. The Company's business
+could also be adversely affected by other
+factors such as the impact on export due to
+trade protectionism from certain countries,
+impact on import which is likely caused by
+regional trade agreements, and negative
+impact on the investment of overseas oil
+and gas exploration and development and
+refining and chemical storage projects which
+results from the uncertainty of geopolitics,
+international crude oil price and etc.
+In the course of its production and
+operations, the Company will actively take
+various measures to circumvent operational
+risks. However, in practice, it may not be
+possible to prevent the occurrence of all
+risks and uncertainties described below.
+25 RISK FACTORS
+The Company always attaches great
+importance to the fulfilment of social
+responsibilities, and carries out the green

+qualitative and quantitative compliance with
+technical guidance as well as its accuracy
+and reasonableness. We also engage external
+consultants to assist in our compliance
+with the rules and regulations of the U.S.
+Securities and Exchange Commission.
+Our reserves estimation process is further
+facilitated by a specialised reserves
+database, which is improved and updated
+periodically.
+Our reserves estimates are guided by
+procedural manuals and technical guidance
+formulated by the Company. A number of
+working divisions at the production bureau
+level, including the exploration, development
+and financial divisions, are responsible

+information about reserves. Experts from
+exploration, development and economic
+divisions prepare the initial report on the
+reserves estimate which is then reviewed by
+the RMC at the subsidiary level to ensure the
+Risks from the uncertainties of obtaining
+additional oil and gas resources: The future
+sustainable development of the Company
+is partly dependent to a certain extent on
+our abilities in continuously discovering
+or acquiring additional oil and natural
+gas resources. To obtain additional oil
+and natural gas resources, the Company
+faces some inherent risks associated with
+exploration and development and/or with
+acquisition activities, and the Company has
+to invest a large amount of money with no
+guarantee of certainty. If the Company fails
+to acquire additional resources through
+further exploration, development and
+acquisition to increase the reserves of crude
+oil and natural gas, the oil and natural gas
+reserves and production of the Company

+as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intend to liquidate Sinopec
+Corp. or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
+Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing Sinopec Corp.'s financial reporting process.
+AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
+Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether these financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether
+due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a
+guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
+fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
+users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
+As part of an audit in accordance with CSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
+• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit
+procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
+detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
+omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

+From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of
+the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law
+or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be
+communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of
+such communication.
+We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence,
+and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
+related safeguards.
