IGB Pipeline

ICGB, the independent operator of the Greece-Bulgaria interconnector (IGB), has obtained a construction permit for Lot 1 of its planned capacity expansion project - from 3 to 5 billion cubic meters per year (bcm/y). Issued by the Bulgarian Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works, the permit covers the upgrade of the gas metering station near the Bulgarian city of Stara Zagora.

This key step enables ICGB to move forward with the procedure for selecting an Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractor. Once selected, the EPC contractor will be tasked with installing additional filtration and gas pre-heating equipment, as well as building pressure reduction and metering lines at the Stara Zagora gas metering station. The Lot 1 upgrade will allow the gas metering station to accommodate higher flows (up to 5 bcm/y) while maintaining full safety and operational compliance.

A public procurement procedure has been launched with a subject-matter: "Periodic deliveries of special workwear for the needs of ICGB AD"

The subject of the procurement includes periodic deliveries upon the request of the Contracting Entity, including branding of various types of special, protective and safety workwear, described by types, quality and technical characteristics in the Technical Specification of the Contracting Entity, part of the tender documentation. The total period during which the Contracting Entity may request deliveries of quantities of goods under the contract including an option, is 36 (thirty-six) months. 

In connection with a launched public procurement procedure with the subject-matter “Supply of valves, linear part, for the needs of the IGB gas pipeline", ICGB AD prolongs the deadline for submission of offers.
