Abstract: Think tank is an important part of a nation’s soft capability. Establishment of the new-type think tank with the Chinese characteristics is one of the country’s important strategic measures. Attaching great importance to establishment of think tank, China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) has set up the decision-making research consultancy system on the basis of seven institutes and two centers. However, there are some problems in this area though remarkable achievements are made in application of this system. For example, the existing structure is not in steps with the current situation. Based on “Opinions on Stepping up Development of New-type Think Tank with Chinese Characteristics” and the demand for China’s sustainable petroleum industrial development, this paper comes up with the proposals on functions, framework, targets and development methods of CNPC’s new-type think tank system. It is suggested that the functions of think tank should be positioned according to two types – technological innovation and research on strategy and policies. The think tank should be structured at various levels, highlighting oil and gas industrial characteristics and advantages, improving the quality of research and development results and raising decision-making service capacity. Innovation is made in management structuring mechanism to enhance the internal development dynamics and vigor with the efforts focusing on organizational leadership, characteristics and quality.
