中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价1月11日报道称,跨亚德里亚海管道项目(TAP)是欧盟(EU)的关键战略基础设施项目之一,旨在使运输到欧洲的天然气来源多元化,从而缓解欧洲对俄罗斯天然气进口的依赖。该项目已获得45亿美元(39亿欧元)的项目融资,为2020年首次从阿塞拜疆向意大利运输天然气铺平了道路。
负责开发和建设这条天然气管道的公司周五在一份声明中表示,TAP在2018年12月完成了项目融资。
项目融资由17家商业银行以及欧洲复兴开发银行(EBRD)和欧洲投资银行(EIB)共同提供。部分融资由出口信贷机构bpifrance,Euler Hermes和Sace提供。
“随着项目融资的结束,TAP可以推进到该项目的最终完工,并在2020年交付Shah Deniz II天然气。”TAP的常务董事Luca Schieppati说。
截至2018年11月,TAP已完成82.4%。
TAP是欧洲南部天然气走廊的重要组成部分,是欧洲的一个重要基础设施项目,旨在使天然气供应来源多元化,减少对俄罗斯的依赖,并将来自里海地区的天然气输送到欧洲市场。

Gas Pipeline TAP Completes $4.5B Project Financing
The Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP)—one of the European Union’s (EU) key strategic infrastructure projects to diversify Europe’s gas deliveries away from Russia—has secured US$4.5 billion (3.9 billion euro) in project financing, paving the way for first deliveries of gas from Azerbaijan to Italy in 2020.
TAP reached the financial close of the project financing in December 2018, the company developing and building the gas pipeline said in a statement on Friday.
The project financing is provided by a group of 17 commercial banks, alongside the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the European Investment Bank (EIB). Part of the financing is covered by export credit agencies bpifrance, Euler Hermes, and Sace.
“With project financing now concluded, TAP can progress to the final completion of the project and delivery of Shah Deniz II gas in 2020,” said Luca Schieppati, TAP’s Managing Director.
As of November 2018, TAP was 82.4 percent completed.
TAP is a key part of the Southern Gas Corridor—a key infrastructure project for Europe aimed at diversifying gas supplies away from Russia and bringing natural gas from the Caspian Sea region to European markets.
