據3月22日Neftegaz.RU報道， TAP管道是南部天然氣走廊的最后一段，這是歐洲天然氣供應多樣化的主要項目。據當地阿澤塔克報道，自2020年12月開始通過TAP輸送天然氣后，跨亞得里亞管道股份公司宣布，阿塞拜疆共有10億立方米天然氣通過希臘的基波伊互聯點進入歐洲，TAP連接到跨安納托利亞管道。

作為南方天然氣走廊的歐洲段，TAP每年可向歐洲多個市場輸送約100億立方米天然氣。該管道的設計還具有將其吞吐能力擴大到200億立方米/年的潛力。

TAP公司總裁Luca Schieppati說：“現在，我們已經安全地將10億立方米的天然氣輸送到歐洲多個市場。隨著10億立方米天然氣的安全運輸，我們的基礎設施將繼續實現多元化發展。TAP提供的天然氣量在為歐盟提供安全、可靠和新能源方面發揮了關鍵作用，同時促進了歐盟的能源轉型路線圖。”

TAP商務主管Marija Savova表示：“第一個10億立方米的交付增強了市場競爭，并加強了TAP作為一個可靠的TSO的作用。TAP在東南歐尤為重要，那里有幾個市場可以直接獲得額外的天然氣。此外，還公開邀請參加2021年7月的市場測試約束性招標，以測試TAP的潛在擴容能力。”

TAP是南方天然氣走廊的歐洲段，這是一個從阿塞拜疆向歐洲多個市場輸送100億立方米新天然氣供應的門戶項目。TAP系統的運營符合國際公認的質量、安全和環境標準，其設計的吞吐能力有可能翻倍，達到每年200億立方米。

TAP的股權為BP占股20%、SOCAR占股20%、Snam占股20%、Fluxys占股19%、 Enagás占股16%、Axpo占股5%。

TAP transports 1st 1 billion m3 of natural gas to Europe

The TAP pipeline is the last section of the Southern Gas Corridor, Europe's major project for diversification of gas supplies

Following the commencement of gas flows via TAP in December 2020, the Trans Adriatic Pipeline AG announces that a total of 1 billion m3 (bcm) of natural gas from Azerbaijan has now entered Europe via the Greek interconnection point of Kipoi, where TAP connects to the Trans Anatolian Pipeline (TANAP), the local Azertac reported.

As the European section of the Southern Gas Corridor, TAP has the capacity to transport approximately 10 billion m3 of gas per annum (bcm/a) to several markets in Europe.

The pipeline is also designed with the potential to expand its throughput capacity up to 20 bcm/a.

TAP Managing Director Luca Schieppati said:

With 1 bcm of gas now safely transported, our infrastructure continues to enable diversification across multiple markets.

The gas volumes delivered by TAP play a key role in providing the EU with a new source of secure, reliable and affordable energy, while facilitating its energy transition roadmap.

TAP Head of Commercial Marija Savova commented:

The delivery of the 1st 1 bcm enhances market competition and reinforces TAP’s role as a reliable TSO.TAP is particularly important in South Eastern Europe, where several markets could directly receive additional gas.Moreover, there are open invitations to participate in the July 2021 binding bidding phase of the market test for the potential expansion of TAP’s capacity.

TAP is the European leg of the Southern Gas Corridor, a gateway project that will transport 10 billion m3 of new gas supplies from Azerbaijan to multiple markets in Europe.

The TAP system operates in line with internationally recognized quality, safety and environmental standards, and is designed with the potential to double its throughput capacity to 20 bcm/a.

TAP's shareholding is comprised of:

BP (20%)

SOCAR (20%)

Snam (20%)

Fluxys (19%)

Enagás (16%)

Axpo (5%)
