As of August 14, the construction of Phase I Pipeline Route of Natural Gas Transmission Pipeline from Lushan Off-take Station to Ruzhou has been basically completed. A total of 26 km of pigging, 21 km of trench excavation, 1 crossing with a section of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, 3 crossings with provincial highways, and 2 crossings with large rivers have been completed in the Program. The land used for the Program covers nearly 20 villages in 3 townships and towns.

This Program is the first long-distance transmission pipeline independently constructed by Tian Lun Group, which was officially commenced this January. During the construction, the Company strictly controlled the construction quality in strict accordance with the construction specifications. At the same time, all departments of the Company performed their own responsibilities and efficiently completed various work such as land occupation coordination, crossing construction, and forest compensation. The Company made concerted efforts to ensure the smooth implementation of the Program as planned.

At present, the construction of the Program has achieved phased results. In the next step, a series of follow-up work of the Program, such as station and valve chamber construction, pipeline pressure test, project acceptance, and engineering procedures handling, will be performed.
