PGNiG plays hard to get with GdF over LNG terminal

PGNiG ascertains that the letter should be signed within the next ten days. However, Kossowski has made one important condition - the Polish company wants to be a partner in the enterprise and to have equal rights with GdF. "At this stage we do not want to give Gaz de France exclusive negotiating rights. It is essential for us that there is a symmetry between the two firms' interests," said Kossowski and added that there are many other companies also interested in participating in building the terminal. According to PGNiG, the terminal will cost EUR 400 million, but this sum does not take into account expenditure on infrastructure, which could be quite high if the company plans to become the distributor of LNG in the CE region.
