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:

    A technical objection is the first refuge of a scoundrel.
    Heywood Broun (1888–1939)

    All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
