China–Russia East Pipeline 中俄东线天然气管道 is a series of natural gas pipeline phases and branches in China. On December 7, 2022, the pipeline was fully connected and formally started operation.[1]

Location

The trunk pipeline (Phases I, II, and III) runs from Heihe, Heilongjiang to Shanghai, China.[2] Additional branches are also proposed, in construction, and operating.

Background

The proposal to build a gas pipeline delivering natural gas from Russia to China began in 1996. In May 2014, after 17 years of negotiation, the two countries signed Memorandum of Cooperation on China-Russia East Gas Pipeline (《中俄东线天然气合作项目备忘录》). China National Petroleum Corporation and Gazprom also signed the Purchase and Sales Contract for the pipeline. The contract covers 30 years of supply with 38 billion cubic meters per year. The total value of the contract is reportedly $400 billion.[3][4]

The pipeline is divided in three phases, and is ultimately expected to be 5111 kilometers in length[5] and deliver 38 billion cubic meters per year.[6]

Note in the pipeline tracker database documentation, the three phases below do not sum to 5111 kilometers, so an additional pipeline is added to ccount for the unaccounted length.

The pipeline's source is the Power of Siberia Gas Pipeline. In 2019 the connecting pipeline between Heihe and Blagoveshchensk was laid under the Heilongjiang River in the Russia-China border.[7]

In October 2020, ownership of the pipeline was transferred from CNPC to PipeChina.[8]

Construction for Phase I, 1067 kilometers of pipeline, began in June 2015 and was completed in December 2019.[9][10] Once all phases are complete, the plan is to supply 38 billion cubic meters per year of natural gas by 2023.[9]

In January 2021, it was reported that Phases I and II were operating, and that Phase III was under construction.[5]

On December 7, 2022, the whole pipeline was fully connected and formally started operation.[1]

According to the Environmental Impact Assessment of Phase I, it consists one trunk line and one branch. The length is 737 kilometers for the trunk line from Heihe to Changling, and 115 km for the branch from Changling to Changchun. [9] On the news of its operation on December 2, 2019, however, the length was reportedly 1047 kilometers, and there are three branches instead of one. [11] The other two branches are Daqing - Harbin branch and Mingshui - Harbin branch. They are as part of Heilongjiang Natural Gas Pipeline Network.

本工程包括 1 干 1 支,分别为黑河—长岭段干线和长春支线。其中干线全长 737km,管径 1422mm,设计输量 380×108m3/a,设计压力 12MPa;长岭—长春支线长度为 115km,管径为 1016mm,设计输量 110×108m3/a,设计压力为 10 MPa,基本与长长吉输气管道并行敷设。该项目工程建设投资合计 192.75×108元,其中建设投资 180.72×108元,建设期利息 12.03×108元。 本段线路干线起点为黑河首站,终点为长岭分输站,线路沿线自北向南依次经过黑龙江省的黑河市的爱辉区、孙吴县、五大连池市、克东县、中俄东线天然气管道工程拜泉县、明水县、青冈县、安达市、肇东县、肇州县、肇源县以及吉林省的前郭尔罗斯蒙古自治县,干线线路全长 737km。长岭-长春支线起点为长岭分输站,终点为哈沈线长春分输站,途经吉林省的前郭尔罗斯蒙古自治县、长岭县、农安县和德惠市,全线基本与长长吉输气管道并行敷设,全长 115km。[9]
