    Singapore (18 December 2011) – Ed. Züblin AG, Singapore Branch announced the successful completion of a record-breaking single drive tunnel using pipe jacking method in the Asia- Pacific region.

    Züblin was awarded the SGD 23.6 million Submarine Gas Transmission Pipeline Project by Power Gas Ltd., Singapore in January 2011 with contract duration of 24 months. The scope comprised sinking of two deep shafts and an ID2000mm reinforced concrete tunnel over a record length of 1.55km crossing beneath the busy shipping lanes of the West Jurong Channel, including the design, manufacture and supply of precast RC jacking pipes. The tunnel will house a DN700mm high pressure gas transmission pipeline, traversing between the Singapore mainland and Jurong Island.

    Default S$240 million

    In July 1997, piped gas production operation was relocated to the S$240 million Senoko Gasworks. This has a daily production capacity of 1.6 million cubic metres, 45% more than Kallang Gaswork's capacity at 1 million cubic metres. Singapore Power also opened a S$30 million gasholder at Toh Tuck at end March 1998 which serves as a contingency store of between 6 to 8 hrs gas supply should the Senoko operation face problems.

    Youth olympic is quite new i do not know how much it would be but olympic expenditure is huge in billions and most countries overshot the budgets. So $300m is not much for youth olympic.

    300M is small money. Base on what is it wasted? it put us on the map with the global cities. Such publicity could have cost even more just to run PR.

    Youth Olympics and adult Olympics are two different things. Youth Olympics nobody gives a shit whether the country spend $300 million or $300k and our govt can't see that. My point is Singapore is being taken for suckers without govt knowing, and what more spending $300 million on a useless event with the whole world laughing at our sheer stupidity.

    No need to give people $300 million, they just keep that money in the reserve and not waste it on the useless youth Olympics can liao.

    Until now singaporeans have yet to get accountability from govt about this matter.

    The whole world knows Singapore overestimated on yog budget by more than 3 times, you mean this is not laughing stock enough for you? BBC was kind enough to just write it as singapore taking a gamble on the event, short of saying it was sheer stupidity.

    True. With 2 over $1b-land sold to developers, why not? $300m is nothing.
