Gas transmission to Poland via Baltic Pipe pipeline starts
17:00
Gas transmission to Poland via the Baltic Pipe pipeline has started, Gaz-System has announced. For about two months, the pipeline will operate with limited capacity.
The Baltic Pipe gas pipeline was officially opened on Tuesday. However, planned gas flows on a commercial basis began on Saturday, with the start of the so-called gas year.
The only user of the Baltic Pipe system will be PGNiG for the time being. The company has bought most of the pipeline's capacity, which is expected to eventually reach 10 million cubic meters per year. PGNiG will import gas from its production on the Norwegian shelf and gas purchased from other producers.
