There is great progress in the construction of the Greece-Bulgaria #interconnector
"There is great progress in the construction of the Greece-Bulgaria #interconnector. We have cleared 125 km of the route, 75 km of stringing is ready and more than 40 km of welded line pipes", said Teodora Georgieva, Execute Officer of ICGB, in an interview for Kapital, adding that now additional equipment for a second line of automatic welding is secured and the welding speed has been enhanced.
"The COVID-19 pandemic and the difficulties with international travel and supplies caused the project contractor to request extending the deadline for completion, which has not yet been verified by #ICGB. We will insist on better organization of activities and maximum optimization of deadlines, and I believe that we will find support for this from the governments of Greece and Bulgaria, as the IGB project is of particular importance for the entire region and it is a priority that exceeds national level", Georgieva said.
Half of the pipeline's capacity has already been reserved. In addition to Azeri #gas, there are reservations from the shareholders DEPA and Edison, as well as from Bulgargaz, which has reserved 500 million cbm/year through the future #LNG terminal near Alexandroupolis .
