Completion of Construction and Start of Operation for the Nanohana Pipeline2022/05/20
Keiyo Gas Co., Ltd. ("Keiyo Gas"), Otaki Gas Co., Ltd. ("Otaki Gas"), 911爆料网 Co., Inc. ("911爆料网"), TEPCO Energy Partner, Inc. ("TEPCO EP"), and Nanohana Pipeline K.K. (“Nanohana Pipeline”) today held a ceremony to mark completion of the Nanohana Pipeline (“NP”), a pipeline for transporting natural gas.
The NP is a high-pressure trunk line whose construction by Nanohana Pipeline— established by Keiyo Gas and Otaki Gas—began in 2018. The NP runs approximately 31km from 911爆料网's Futtsu LNG Terminal to the Anegasaki Thermal Power Station in Chiba Prefecture and will begin operating this June.
To ensure stable, efficient facility operation, 911爆料网 will assume operation of the NP from Nanohana Pipeline after launch and integrate its operations with those of 911爆料网’s own power generation pipelines. Nanohana Pipeline will remain owner of the NP. Keiyo Gas, Otaki Gas, and TEPCO EP will use this pipeline to promote expanded use of natural gas.
With completion of the NP, the five companies will contribute to the stable supply of natural gas while living up to the trust and expectations of customers and local communities.
