Background

The pipeline was first proposed in 2012 and was included in the 2016-2030 Philippine Energy Plan. Feasibility studies were conducted by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and Rebel Group International B.V., and the project was shelved in 2017 due to multiple reasons, including right-of-way issues, concerns about insufficient supply for the pipeline, and construction of an LNG Terminal. As of September 2024, there were no updated on the project so it is presumed cancelled.
