据管道新闻网5月22日消息称,保加利亚开始与希腊修建一条耗资2.68亿美元(合2.4亿欧元)的天然气管道,这将结束这个巴尔干国家对俄罗斯天然气的完全依赖,并有助于实现东南部欧洲天然气供应的多样化。

经过数年的拖延,保加利亚和希腊之间113英里(182公里)的互联互通线路预计将于2020年底建成,初期年产能为105亿至175亿立方英尺,主要向保加利亚输送阿塞拜疆天然气。

希腊总理阿列克西斯·齐普拉斯和保加利亚总理博伊科·鲍里索夫说,基尔科沃村附近的建设工程标志性地开始了,该村距离希腊边境以北约15公里。

鲍里索夫说:“这个项目不仅对我们两国,而且对整个欧洲,包括巴尔干半岛西部的国家,都具有战略重要性。这将导致天然气供应的真正多样化。”

本月早些时候,该管道项目公司ICGB选择了希腊天然气承包商J&P AVAX来建造连接保加利亚南部城市斯塔扎戈拉和希腊东北部城市科莫蒂尼的管道。

ICGB的50%股份由保加利亚国有的BEH能源控股公司持有。其余股份由希腊的DEPA和意大利的Edison持有。

保加利亚希望建立一个天然气枢纽,并确保来自不同来源的天然气供应,包括来自美国的液化天然气。与此同时,保加利亚也渴望让俄罗斯的天然气通过其领土流入中欧。

该公司已选择由沙特牵头的一个财团建设一条280多英里(450公里)长的管道,从土耳其南部边境到塞尔维亚西部边境,旨在确保与俄罗斯支持的通往中欧的土耳其溪双管道相连。

Bulgaria Builds Gas Link to End Full Reliance on Russian Gas

Bulgaria started building a $268 million (240 million euro) gas pipeline with Greece that will end the Balkan country’s total dependence on Russian gas and help diversify supplies in southeastern Europe.

After years of delays, a 113-mile (182-km) interconnector link between Bulgaria and Greece with an initial annual capacity of 105-175 Bcf is now expected to ready by the end of 2020 and transport, mainly Azeri gas to Bulgaria.

Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said the symbolic start of the construction works near the village of Kirkovo, about 15 km north of border with Greece.

“The project is of strategic importance not only for our two countries, but for the whole of Europe, including the countries in the Western Balkans,” Borissov said. “It will lead to real diversification of gas supplies.”

Earlier this month the project company for the pipeline, ICGB, picked Greek gas contractor J&P AVAX to build the link between the southern Bulgarian city of Stara Zagora to the Greek city of Komotini in northeast Greece.

ICGB is 50% owned by Bulgaria’s state-held BEH energy holding company. The remaining shares are held by Greece’s DEPA and Italy’s Edison.

Along with its hopes to build a gas hub and secure gas supplies from different sources, including liquefied natural gas from the United States, Bulgaria is eager to keep Russian natural gas flowing through its territory to central Europe.

It has picked a Saudi-led consortium to build a more than 280-mile (450-km) pipeline from its southern border with Turkey to its western border with Serbia, aiming to secure a link to the Russia-backed TurkStream twin pipeline to central Europe.
