Construction commences at fourth Shaan-Jing Gas Pipeline
In early August, welding works for the fourth Shaan-Jing Gas Pipeline commenced in Ulanqab city, Inner Mongolia. Equipment testing and trial welding at different sections in Beijing and Inner Mongolia have been taking place since July 11.
The Fourth Shaan-Jing Gas Pipeline includes a trunk line and three branches. The trunk line and one branch, covering a total mileage of 1,114km, will be built at the first phase. The trunk line is expected to be completed in October 2017, with a designed annual deliverability of 25 Bcm. It will run across Inner Mongolia and Hebei, from the initial station in Jingbian, Shaanxi, to Gaoliying Terminal Station in Beijing. Five compressor stations will be deployed along the pipeline.
The fourth Shaan-Jing Gas Pipeline will serve as an important channel for delivering imported gas from Central Asia and gas produced in West China, as well as an extension of the West-East Gas Pipelines. Specifically, it will play a major role in boosting natural gas supply to North China.
