Posted on: Wednesday, 10 September 2008, 09:00 CDT
GE Oil & Gas has announced that it will supply pipeline compression equipment for China's second West-to-East natural gas transmission pipeline, in a contract exceeding $100 million.
The second West-to-East pipeline will carry natural gas from Turkmenistan to Shanghai and southern Guandong Province, to help meet the region's growing energy demand. The new pipeline will run more than 9,000km, will traverse 12 provinces and autonomous regions and will have a designed gas transmission capacity of 30 billion cubic meters annually.
GE Oil & Gas will supply seven gas turbine-driven pipeline compression units for the first phase of the second West-to-East pipeline. The units will be installed at two new boosting stations in Xinjiang and Gansu provinces and will feature 30MW, PGT25+ gas turbines driving PCL 800 pipeline compressors.
Claudi Santiago, president and CEO of GE Oil & Gas, said: "GE Oil & Gas has been active in China for more than 30 years. Traditionally, we have had a strong presence in the downstream sector of China's oil and gas business."
