Technip secures TAP contract


Technip has won a Project Management Consultancy (PMC) Services contract from TAP for an 870-mile pipeline project to transport gas from the Shah Deniz field in the Caspian Sea to Italy. The scheme includes an 870km pipeline that will start from the tie-in with the TANAP portion of the Southern Gas Corridor project at the Greece/Turkey border, then runs through Greece and Albania to eventually cross under the Adriatic Sea to terminate in Puglia in Italy. The project is designed to


transport 10 bcm/year of natural gas, with the potential to expand this to 20 bcm/year in the future. It is scheduled for completion early in 2020.

onshore portions of the pipeline in Greece, Albania and Italy. It will include overall project management, procure- ment and subcontracting, warranty management and project close-out. Services will be run from TAP’s headquar- ters in Switzerland, and at Technip’s office in Italy. “This contract is an


important milestone for Technip PMC,” said Riccardo Moizo, Senior Vice President of Technip PMC. “With this award, Technip will be able to reaffirm its strong project management capabilities, through the execution of a very prestigious project.” ❙ www.technip.com ❙ www.tap-ag.com
