, according to Quanzhou Gas Co., Ltd. head Gao Xin, Quanzhou ceramic industry developed, products for global sales, industrial gas accounted for 95% of the city's gas consumption. For Quanzhou, an export-oriented economic development of the city, the West Third Line natural gas to Quanzhou's green development is very important. "Central Asian natural gas has completed the transition from clean energy-powered economic development to output in Quanzhou, and then extended to the sea through import and export trade," Gao said. The
Third Line is a major energy corridor that runs through both east and west of China, connecting Central Asian energy to the west, and from the east to Quanzhou, Zheng He, one of the starting points of the Maritime Silk Road. The main gas supply source of the western third line is Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, which is the first multi-country import gas pipeline in China.
East Section of the West Third Line (Ji'an-Fuzhou) project started in Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province, and ended in Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, with a total length of 832.4 km and an annual capacity of 15 billion cubic meters, covering Jiangxi and Fujian provinces. 80% of the project along the mountainous areas, through the well-known "green treasure trove" of Fujian Province, geological conditions are complex, natural disasters and hidden dangers, the construction of the project is extremely difficult and risky, safety and environmental protection requirements are extremely strict.
In order to send clean natural gas to Fujian at an early time, PetroChina aims to "create a national ecological civilization project for soil and water conservation", and tens of thousands of builders have successfully completed the construction of the project after four years of fighting, fulfilling the promise of "protecting the green mountains and waters along the route and building green pipeline projects".
, the national key project west third line east and west two sections have been completed and put into operation.
