Asia to lead midstream project starts during 2023 - 2027

GlobalData’s latest report, ‘Oil and Gas Midstream New Build and Expansion Projects Analysis by Type, Development Stage, Key Countries, Region and Forecasts, 2023-2027’ highlights that the trunk/transmission pipelines segment dominates with 155 projects in Asia, accounting for 39% of the total upcoming midstream project starts in the region during 2023 - 2027. LNG regasification and oil storage segments follow with 115 and 113, respectively.

Himani Pant Pandey, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “Asian countries, especially India and China, are witnessing a rapid development of midstream infrastructure for imports, transport, and storage of oil and petroleum products to meet the ever-growing domestic demand.”

A key upcoming transmission pipeline project in Asia is the Xinjiang-Guangdong-Zhejiang SNG onshore gas pipeline in China. With a length of 8972 km, it is the longest pipeline proposed in China and is expected to commence operations in 2026. To be operated by SNG Transmission Pipeline Co Ltd, the pipeline will help transport gas from western China to the demand centres in the east.

In the oil storage segment, Zhoushan V Expansion is a key project with a capacity of 132 million bbl. To be operated by Zhejiang Petrochemical Co Ltd, it is expected to start operation in 2025.

Himani continues: “Seomkum in South Korea is the largest upcoming regasification project in Asia with an expected start of operations in 2027. With a proposed capacity of 565 billion ft3, it further cements the status of South Korea as one of the leading importers of LNG in the world.”
