The China Petroleum Pipeline Engineering Co., Ltd. (CPP) is a subsidiary of the China National Petroleum Corporation and the primary builder of pipelines in China. The company has built much of the cross-country pipeline infrastructure in China and had several large-scale projects abroad.
Projects
Habshan–Fujairah oil pipeline, a 1.5 million-barrel-per-day crude oil pipeline from Habshan, Abu Dhabi to Fujairah. It was built by CPP and China Petroleum Engineering and Construction Corporation, another subsidiary of CNPC, in a project under a construction contract for US$3.29 billion. The construction work was carried out from March 2008 to March 2011.
In August 2018, the Pakatan Harapanseventh cabinet of Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed canceled a CPP project in Malaysia, accusing it of participating in corruption. The company denied the allegations. At the time, the project paid for by the Malaysian government, was only 13% incomplete, but the money paid corresponded with a project that was close to 80% complete. In July 2019, Malaysian authorities seized $243.5M from China Petroleum Pipeline Engineering to compensate for the paid for but unfinished pipelines.
