Nabucco Pipeline - Technical Features

Technical Features

In early years after completion the deliveries are expected to be between 4.5 and 13 billion cubic metres (160×10^9 and 460×10^9 cu ft) per year. Around 2020, the supply volume is expected to reach 31 billion cubic metres (1.1 trillion cubic feet) per year, of which up to 16 billion cubic metres (570 billion cubic feet) will go to Baumgarten. The diameter of the pipeline would be 56 inches (1,400 mm). The Nabucco-West proposal foresees a capacity of 10 billion cubic metres (350 billion cubic feet).

In the EU territory, the pipeline is to be exempt from regulated third party access, including tariff regulation, for 25 years.

Famous quotes containing the words technical and/or features:

    The axioms of physics translate the laws of ethics. Thus, “the whole is greater than its part;” “reaction is equal to action;” “the smallest weight may be made to lift the greatest, the difference of weight being compensated by time;” and many the like propositions, which have an ethical as well as physical sense. These propositions have a much more extensive and universal sense when applied to human life, than when confined to technical use.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The features of our face are hardly more than gestures which force of habit made permanent. Nature, like the destruction of Pompeii, like the metamorphosis of a nymph into a tree, has arrested us in an accustomed movement.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
