The Shijiazhuang–Taiyuan refined oil pipeline project is one of the pipeline projects undertaken by Sinopec. The starting point of this project is the “Shijiazhuang Refinery”, while its endpoint is the “Huanghouyuan Oil Depot” in Taiyuan City. The total length of the pipeline is 316 kilometers. It passes through Shijiazhuang in Hebei, Yangquan and Jinzhong in Shanxi, Taiyuan, and other places. The pipeline transports both gasoline and diesel, with a designed annual transport capacity of 3.4 million tons. The entire pipeline network is subject to production scheduling and management by the control center. 　　The construction of the Shitai refined oil pipeline is characterized by a large elevation difference, numerous crossings through mountainous areas, complex terrain, high design pressures for the pipelines, and a short construction period, posing new challenges to pipeline construction. The main construction of this project was completed across the board by the end of 2006, and oil production began in the first half of 2007. 　　The construction of the Shijiazhuang-Taiyuan refined oil pipeline will effectively alleviate issues such as long transportation distances, high freight costs, and difficulties in transporting refined oil in Shanxi. It will provide a reliable source of supply for the refined oil market in that region, promote economic development along the pipeline route, and at the same time reduce the transportation costs for petrochemical companies, thereby enhancing their competitiveness in the market.
