Nam Kwong Natural Gas Company Limited expects to finish the laying of underground natural gas pipes in Taipa and Coloane this year, and provide natural gas to all users in the area, the company’s Deputy General Manager and Chief Operating Officer Zhong Jianxin said yesterday.
Zhong made the remarks on the sidelines of a seminar about natural gas development in Macau, at the Macau Science Centre in Nape.
Concerning the laying of the underground pipes on the peninsula, Zhong said the process was relatively complicated and therefore would take longer to complete, adding that the pipes would probably only be operational in 2020.
