Oct 22 (Reuters) - Cheniere Energy expects China gas demand to grow to more than 600 billion cubic meters (bcm) by 2040 from 400 bcm today, a company executive said at the Asia Gas Markets conference on Tuesday.

"There's no doubt that gas demand growth in China, in absolute terms, is substantially driven by energy demand, policies like coal-to-gas-switch as well as a huge infrastructure build-up," said Yingying Zhou, director LNG origination at Cheniere.
