Background

The pipeline source is the Qingdao LNG Terminal. Its diameter is 457 mm and the design pressure of 6.4MPa. [8] Construction began in June 2019 and the pipeline was expected to begin operating in October 2020.[9]

The pipeline began operating in October 2020.[10]

A branch of this pipeline from Gaoyou, Jiangsu to Tianchang, Anhui was also proposed but no details could be found yet.[11]
