Background

Construction of the second West–East Gas Pipeline started on 22 February 2008. The pipeline has a total length of 9,102 km (5,656 mi) and runs from Horgos in northwestern Xinjiang to Guangzhou in Guangdong. Up to Gansu, it is parallel and interconnected with West-East Gas Pipeline 1.[2] In 2013 the pipeline was connected to Dachan Island, off Shenzhen, and from there to the Black Point power station in Hong Kong.[3]

The West-East Gas Pipeline 2 is mainly supplied by the Central Asia-China gas pipeline.[2][4] The project was developed by China National Oil and Gas Exploration and Development Corp. (CNODC), a joint venture of China National Petroleum Corporation and PetroChina.[5]

Construction of the pipeline began in March 2011. It will eventually connect to the Sino-Myanmar Gas Pipeline.[6] The pipeline began operating in 2012.[6]14 cities and 51 counties in Guangxi will receive gas supply through dedicated branches from this pipeline, forming a provincial gas pipeline network.
