Pipenet provides pipe corridor rental services to companies that need to transport chemical feedstock and products in Singapore, whilst also offering a portfolio of utilities services such as steam, de-mineralised water, fire-fighting water and other support services to companies in Singapore.

“Pipenet owns and operates an extensive pipeline corridor network which is located on the island, with the majority stretch running along the Jurong Island Highway,” Keppel Infrastructure added. “The existing corridor connects the Merbau region to the Banyan and Tembusu regions on Jurong Island, and runs through the chemical cluster at the Sakra region.”

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
