The oilfield produced 441 million cubic meters of natural gas, 1.61% above the monthly target.
The company's overseas businesses also realized better-than-planned output last month, with crude oil output totaling 6.79 million tonnes and natural gas output at 2.75 billion cubic meters.
Domestic sales also increased, with oil sales in Southwest China's Yunnan province surging 27.6% year-on-year to 115,200 tonnes in January.
In the northwestern Qinghai province, the CNPC's sales revenue from non-oil business jumped 36% year-on-year last month, while gasoline and diesel sales were above targets.
