【Information on Haichuan Chemical Project】Multiple gas storage facilities are under construction or planned to be built in the Sichuan-Chongqing region

Thread Content

There are also several gas storage facilities that are under construction or planned for construction in the Sichuan-Chongqing region. These include those located in Tongluoxia, Huangcaoxia, Wanshunchang, Shapingchang, Shenongsan, Zhaigouwan, Laowengchang, Mujiaping, and Zhongba in Chongqing. The aim is to create a gas storage and peak-shaving facility worth tens of billions in value in the southwest region. Once completed, these facilities will be able to store 10 billion cubic meters of natural gas, which will help to fill the gap during the peak demand periods in winter. Some of the above-mentioned gas storage facilities have already begun to be filled with gas; for example, the Moujiaping and Laowengchang gas storage facilities located in Yibin, Sichuan, have seen more than 100 million cubic meters of gas injected into them. The Tongluoxia gas storage facility in Yubei District, Chongqing, became operational and started to produce gas last year, while the Huangcaoxia gas storage facility in Changshou District has also begun to be filled with gas. However, the various processes involved in building gas storage facilities are quite complex, and these facilities are still being constructed in an orderly manner according to the plan. In a few years, once it is fully built, the winter natural gas supply in Sichuan and Chongqing will have greater stability.
