Background

The pipeline is a replacement of a previous pipeline that ran along the same route for 25 years, owned by the China National Petroleum Corporation. In 2020, the ownership of the sponsor company, CNPC West Pipeline Company, was handed to PipeChina, a newly-established, state-owned oil and gas pipeline corporation in China.

The pipeline carries both refined oil (5.2 million tons per year) and crude oil (10 million tons per year).
