TAP stabilizes slope affected by landslides
By Trend
As part of the rehabilitation works for access roads in Albania, the Trans Adriatic Pipeline AG (TAP) successfully stabilized a slope affected by landslides, TAP reported.
TAP started the rehabilitation of access roads and bridges Albania in the 2015 summer.
“This will allow heavy machinery and equipment, including a 60 tonne pipe-bending machine and over a thousand 18-metre pipes weighing up to 16 tonnes, to gain safe access to remote areas along the pipeline route,” TAP said.
TAP project envisages transportation of gas from the Stage 2 of
development of Azerbaijan's Shah Deniz gas and condensate field to
the EU countries.
The 870-kilometer pipeline will be connected to the Trans Anatolian
Pipeline (TANAP) on the Turkish-Greek border, run through Greece,
Albania and the Adriatic Sea, before coming ashore in Italy's
south.
TAP's shareholding is comprised of BP (20 percent), SOCAR (20
percent), Snam S.p.A. (20 percent), Fluxys (19 percent), Enagás (16
percent) and Axpo (5 percent).
