China`s national oil reserves rose to 33.25 million tons in mid-2016, official data showed Friday. 

The figure represented 4-percent growth from 32 million tons at the start of 2016, said a statement by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS). 

The oil is at nine strategic storage bases and some corporate facilities, it added. 

China`s state strategic oil reserve program was launched in 2004 to offset supply risks and reduce the impact of fluctuating prices on the domestic market.
