The Sichuan-to-East Gas Pipeline Boosting Project (Phase II) has been fully completed, and the annual gas transmission capacity has been increased to 17 billion cubic meters

On November 8, with the completion and operation of the Yesanguan Compressor Station of the Sichuan-East Gas Transmission Pipeline, a key project of national oil and gas infrastructure, and the completion of the Sichuan-to-East Gas Pipeline Boosting Project (Phase II) of the State Pipe Network Group, the annual gas transmission capacity of the Sichuan-to-East Gas Pipeline was increased to 17 billion cubic meters, further improving the transmission capacity of the "Sichuan Gas Out of Sichuan" channel and the natural gas supply guarantee capacity
of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.

The Sichuan-East Gas Pipeline was originally designed to have a gas transmission capacity of 12 billion cubic meters per year, and the first phase of the pressurization project has been completed as scheduled, increasing the gas transmission capacity to 15 billion cubic meters per year
.
The Sichuan-East Gas Pipeline Pressurization Project (Phase II) includes the expansion of Yesanguan Compressor Station and Huangmei Gas Transmission Station, as well as the addition of compressor units and supporting facilities
.

During the construction of the project, all the construction personnel overcame difficult factors such as tight construction period, heavy tasks and difficult coordination, coordinated epidemic prevention and control and project construction, took multiple measures to strengthen safety and quality control, and greatly reduced investment costs by optimizing the process flow, improving the function of the compressor unit, etc.
, while further improving the reliability of compressor unit operation, laying a solid foundation
for the safe, stable and efficient operation of the pipeline in the later stage.

As an important backbone natural gas pipeline in China, Sichuan-to-East Gas Pipeline is an important part of the "National One Network", with a total length of 2,308 kilometers, spanning eight provinces and cities
in Sichuan, Chongqing, Hubei, Jiangxi, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai 。 In recent years, through the interconnection and transmission enhancement and transformation projects, the Sichuan-to-East Gas Transmission Pipeline has promoted the formation of a multi-channel supply pattern composed of upstream Puguang gas field, Fuling shale gas and Yuanba gas field, and the regional gas source allocation and Sichuan gas export capacity have continued to improve, which has played a positive role
in promoting the industrial structure adjustment and energy structure optimization of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, ensuring the daily and industrial gas consumption of residents along the route, and alleviating the pressure of peak regulation in the areas along the pipeline.

It is reported that since it was put into operation in 2009, the Sichuan-to-East Gas Pipeline has transported more than 126.
8 billion cubic meters of natural gas, benefiting more than 80 cities
along the route.
