Background

The pipeline is owned and operated by PTT. It transports gas from the from Yadana and Yetagun gas fields delivery point along Thai-Myanmar border at Ban-I-Tong in Kanchanaburi to feed Ratchaburi Power Plant in Ratchaburi.

Environmental Impact

Environmentalists opposed the pipeline because of a 6-km section of the route that passes through the rainforest in Kanchanaburi province, and in 1998 camped out along the route to block construction.
