INPEX Makes Final Investment Decision on First Stage Double Public Relations Group, Corporate Communications Unit Akasaka Biz Tower, 5-3-1 Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo 107-6332 JAPAN November 13, 2020 INPEX Makes Final Investment Decision on First Stage Double Tracking of “Ryomo Line” Natural Gas Trunk Pipeline - To commence Feasibility Study on Fifth Stage Extension of “Shin Tokyo Line” and Second Stage Double Tracking of “Ryomo Line” - Tokyo, Japan - INPEX CORPORATION (INPEX) announced today that it has made a final investment decision on the first stage double tracking of its natural gas trunk pipeline “Ryomo Line” to further secure a stable natural gas supply to the northern Kanto region of Japan, where natural gas demand is expected to grow steadily. The first stage double tracking will focus on the approximately six-kilometer segment between Sano City in Tochigi Prefecture and Tatebayashi City in Gunma Prefecture. The Ryomo Line extends 89 kilometers and connects Honjo City in Saitama Prefecture with Sano City and Tatebayashi City. In addition, INPEX will commence a feasibility study on the fifth stage extension of its “Shin Tokyo Line,” a natural gas trunk pipeline extending 213 kilometers from Joetsu City in Niigata Prefecture to Fujioka City in Gunma Prefecture. The company will separately also conduct a feasibility study on the second stage double tracking of the Ryomo Line. INPEX expects to make final investment decisions based on these feasibility studies in spring 2021. 1． Final investment decision on the first stage double tracking of the Ryomo Line The Ryomo Line was constructed by the Ryomo Gas Business Cooperative in 1974 and acquired by INPEX in 2004. The company has since managed and operated the natural gas trunk pipeline, supplying natural gas to local gas companies in the Ryomo area including Isezaki Gas, Ota Toshi Gas, Ashikaga Gas, Sano Gas and Tatebayashi Gas. The double tracking of the Ryomo Line will enhance the stability of the pipeline’s supply capacity.

  • Reemerging Political Geography in Japan
    Japanese Journal of Human Geography 64―6（2012） Reemerging Political Geography in Japan YAMAZAKI Takashi Osaka City University TAKAGI Akihiko Kyushu University KITAGAWA Shinya Mie University KAGAWA Yuichi The University of Shiga Prefecture Abstract The Political Geography Research Group （PGRG） of the Human Geographical Society of Japan was established in 2011 to promote political geographic studies in Japan. The PGRG is the very first research unit on political geography in the Society which was established in 1948. Political geography was once one of the weakest sub―fields in Japanese geography with a very limited number of scholars and published works. This, however, is not at all the case now. Political geography is a reemerging field in Japan. In this review paper, four of the PGRG members contribute chapters on general trends in Japanese political geography, legacies of Japanese wartime geopolitics, the introduction of “new geopolitics” into Japan, and geographical studies on environmental movements. All of them have confirmed with confidence that Japanese political geography has been reemerging and making steady progress in terms of theory, methodology, and case study since the 1980s. Although the current stage of Japanese political geography is still in the regenerative phase, they strongly believe that political geography should be firmly embedded in Japanese geography. Key words : political geography, Japanese geopolitics, new geopolitics, environmental movements, Japan I Introduction The Political Geography Research Group （PGRG） of the Human Geographical Society of Japan was established in 2011 to promote political geographic studies in Japan. The PGRG is the very first research unit on political geography in the Society which was established in 1948.

  • Completion of Construction of the Tochigi Line
    1 November 2005 Completion of construction of the Tochigi Line Public Relations Department Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. (Mr. Norio Ichino, President) recently completed construction of the Tochigi Line, a trunk pipeline with an extended length of about 69.4km, linking the cities of Sano and Utsunomiya in Tochigi Prefecture. We began to construct this trunk pipeline in January 2002 in order to assure the stability of supply to our Utsunomiya service branch and meet the mainly industrial demand for gas along the route. Upon its completion, we placed the pipeline into service today. ■Construction background and course We began supplying city gas made from liquefied natural gas (LNG) to our Utsunomiya service branch after opening the Kumagaya-Sano Line (a trunk pipeline with an extended length of 41.8km, linking the cities of Kumagaya in Saitama Prefecture and Sano in Tochigi Prefecture) in October 2004. Nevertheless, we decided to construct the Tochigi Line in light of the spreading urbanization in the Utsunomiya service branch service area and its periphery; growing demand, mainly among commercial and industrial enterprises taking environmental measures; the need to assure supply stability through a double system of lines; and the demand associated with the Kiyohara and Moka industrial estates, promising sites along the route for buildup of industrial demand. We are promoting construction of the Chuo Line and other lines for the further expansion of our network of trunk transportation pipelines. ■Outline of the trunk pipeline
