The Central Asia-China Gas Pipeline supplied 43.2 billion cubic meters of natural gas to China in 2022.
Currently, the pipeline transports around 100 million cubic meters of natural gas per day, Xinhua news agency reported on Saturday with reference to the PipeChina West Pipeline Company.
By the end of last year, it had delivered a total of 423.2 billion cubic meters of natural gas to China since it started operating in 2009.
Its highest daily transport volume exceeded 163 million cubic meters, the company said.
The pipeline runs from the border of Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, passes through Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, and links up with China's West-to-East Gas Pipeline in Horgos, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. It is China's first transnational gas pipeline.
The pipeline provides gas for more than 500 million residents in 27 provincial-level regions and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
