Background

According to the McConnell Dowell website, the pipeline "will transport gas from the Loading Platform to the Gas Receiving Facility which comprises a piled metering area and includes four metering stations and static mixers." It will consist of buried and above-ground components.

Construction on the associated FSRU began in 2021. In June 2023, it was reported that First Gen aims to begin commercial operations at Batangas offshore LNG terminal early October.
