PBPC is the operator of the Chinese section of the pipeline.
"The operation of the China-Russia crude oil pipeline is the start of a new phase in China-Russia energy cooperation," Yao said.
He said the pipeline will improve the nation's energy-imports structure and promote economic development.
The 1,000-km-long pipeline will transport 15 million tons of crude oil annually from Russia to China from 2011 to 2030.
