Item 1. Security and Issuer.
     This Amendment No. 3 on Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the information contained in the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed on November 12, 1999, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on October 31, 2005 and Amendment No. 2 filed on November 16, 2005 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”), by PetroChina Company Limited (“PetroChina”), a joint stock company with limited liability incorporated in the People’ s Republic of China (the “PRC”), which name was previously translated as “China Oil and Gas Company Limited”, and relates to the ordinary shares, par value RMB1.00 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of Jilin Chemical Industrial Company Limited (the “Issuer” or “Jilin”), a joint stock company with limited liability incorporated in the PRC. The Ordinary Shares of the Issuer are comprised of overseas listed foreign invested shares, par value RMB1.00 per share (“H Shares”), domestic invested shares listed in Mainland China, par value RMB1.00 per share (“A Shares”), and domestic state-owned legal person shares, par value RMB1.00 per share (“State Shares”). H Shares are registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and, in the form of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) (each ADS representing 100 H Shares), the New York Stock Exchange. A Shares are listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and are not registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. The 2,396,300,000 State Shares outstanding are held directly by PetroChina and are not listed on any stock exchange or registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
     Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Except as indicated herein, the information set forth in the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
     Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:
     On December 9, 2005, PetroChina and Jilin jointly filed with the SEC an amended and restated Composite Document, a copy of which is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 5 to this Amendment No. 3, which was further amended by PetroChina and Jilin pursuant to an amendment jointly filed with the SEC on December 23, 2005, which is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 6 to this Amendment No. 3 (together, the “Amended and Restated Composite Document”).
     On February 3, 2006, PetroChina and Jilin issued a joint announcement, a copy of which is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 7 to this Amendment No. 3, announcing that the H Share Offer closed at 4:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time) on Friday, February 3, 2006. As at 4:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time) on Friday, February 3, 2006 and, in the case of the ADSs, 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on Thursday, February 2, 2006, being the latest time for acceptances of the H Share Offer to be lodged, valid acceptances under the H Share Offer had been received in respect of 908,113,053 H Shares (including the H Shares underlying the ADSs), representing 94.13% of the nominal value of the H Shares (including the H Shares underlying the ADSs),

carrying voting rights then exercisable at a general meeting of the holders of H Shares. In addition, the listing of the H Shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was withdrawn with effect from 9:30 a.m. (Hong Kong time) on Monday, January 23, 2006.
     On January 27, 2006, the New York Stock Exchange submitted an application for the delisting of the ADSs to the SEC. Upon approval of the delisting application by the SEC, the H Shares and ADSs will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, with effect from the date announced by the SEC in such approval. Accordingly, upon the effective date of the delisting of the ADSs, the H Shares and the ADSs will no longer be listed on any recognized stock exchange.
     The foregoing summary of the H Share Offer and the A Share Offer and related matters are qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Composite Document, a copy of which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
     The disclosure previously contained in Item 5 is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following:

The calculation of the foregoing percentage is based on the number of Ordinary Shares of the Issuer outstanding as of April 29, 2005 as disclosed by the Issuer in its annual report on Form 20-F for the annual period ended December 31, 2004, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 19, 2005. The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows (11) through (13) of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 3 are incorporated herein by reference.

     (b) PetroChina has the direct power to vote or to direct the vote, and the direct power, subject to approval by the PRC government, to dispose or direct the disposition of 2,396,300,000 State Shares. PetroChina has the direct power to vote or to direct the vote, and the direct power to dispose of or direct the disposition of 908,113,053 H Shares. CNPC has the indirect power, through its direct control of PetroChina, to vote or to direct the vote, and the power, subject to approval by the PRC government, to dispose or direct the disposition of 2,396,300,000 State Shares. CNPC also has the indirect power, through its direct control of PetroChina, to vote or to direct the vote, and the power to dispose or direct the disposition of 908,113,053 H Shares. The responses of the Reporting Persons to (i) Rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 3 and (ii) Item 5(a) hereof are incorporated herein by reference.
