About the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) project

Measuring 520km in total, the TAP pipeline will transport natural gas from the Caspian region to Europe. The pipeline will originate in Greece near Thessaloniki, cross Albania and the Adriatic Sea, entering Italy near Brindisi. In Greece and Italy TAP will tie into the existing national gas systems. TAP is a joint venture between the Swiss EGL Group, Norway's Statoil and Germany's E.ON Ruhrgas.

- Message from Kjetil Tungland, Managing Director of TAP

TAP is in a strong position at this critically important stage and we remain optimistic of the outcome. In addition to being technically viable, safe and offering the most commercially attractive transportation route for shippers, TAP has the enormous advantage of being the shortest new-build pipeline and the most cost-effective route for delivering Shah Deniz II gas into Europe. Read more »
