The middle section links transmission stations
between Changling in Northeast China's Jilin
Province, to Yongqing, North China's Hebei province
intersecting five provincial-regions including Jilin,
Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, Hebei, and Tianjin.
The middle section, which began construction
in July 2019, has a total length of 1,110 kilometers. It
will increase China gas supply capacity by 27 million
cubic meters per day, ensuring a stable gas supply
throughout North China's winter heating season
while improving air quality and the energy mix in the
Bohai Economic Rim.
The project is connected using a domestic pipeline
network including the Shaan-Jing pipeline system
