China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) is planning to build a pipeline to supply fuel from a coal-to-gas project to the Hebei-Beijing-Tianjin area, top consuming region for natural gas, CNOOC said on January 9.
Huabei Pipeline Company - to be set up with CNOOC's Gas and Power unit holding a controlling stake - will build the 382 km (237 miles) pipeline by end-November 2020 to supply the new economic zone Xiongan in Hebei province, near Beijing, it said.
Other investors in the pipeline company include Hebei Natural Gas Company and Beijing Gas Group, CNOOC said.
Huabei Pipeline will eventually build 1,279 km of pipelines with annual transport capacity of 20 billion cubic meters (bcm), linking coal-to-gas projects in northern China's Inner Mongolia region and Shanxi province to a gas supply grid also fed by CNOOC's LNG receiving terminal at the port of Tianjin, CNOOC said earlier on its website.
Following a severe gas supply crunch during the winter of 2017/18, China's national energy companies have been adding pipelines to connect grids operated by different companies and fed by different supply sources to boost supply security.
