GAZ-SYSTEM tightens cooperation with Croatia
Throughout the Three Seas Summit, GAZ-SYSTEM has entered into an agreement with Plinacro, a Croatian transmission system operator. The companies are going to collaborate in favor |of development of the natural gas market in Central Europe.
- Launching the Three Seas initiative will contribute to expansion of the cooperation with the Croatian partner, that has been continued since 2013, particularly in terms of sharing of know-how. Thanks to this agreement, we could jointly support further development of the LNG market and its technologies as well as underground gas warehouses – declared Tomasz Stępień, CEO of GAZ-SYSTEM.
Plinacro started to implement the first stage of construction works at the LNG terminal, based at Krk Island, and expand the transmission infrastructure towards the neighbor states. However, GAZ-SYSTEM plans to increase regasification capabilities of the President Lech Kaczyński Terminal in Świnoujście. In order to enhance gas transmission between the terminals, it is indispensable to carry out further expansion of the Polish transmission system and provide a full integration of gas markets within the Region of the Baltic Sea and Central Europe.
Encouraging collaboration between operators from Poland and Croatia will spur the construction process of the North-South Gas Corridor, all the Members of the Three Seas Initiative, i.e. Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, will benefit from in the future.
