Technip has won a project management consultancy (PMC) services contract, from Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), for a project designed to transport gas from Shah Deniz field to the European market.

Mainly, the scope of the project includes nearly 870-km long pipeline, to begin from the tie-in with the Trans-Anatolian Gas Pipeline portion of the Southern Gas Corridor project, at the Greece/Turkey border. Further, the pipeline will go through Greece and Albania, to eventually cross the Adriatic Sea to end in Puglia, Italy, connecting to the Italian natural gas network.

The project would strengthen security of supply and will also diversify gas resources in the European market.

TAP will be opening a new route for natural gas from the Caspian Sea region, and has been designed to transport 10 Bcm per year with a potential future expansion to 20 Bcm per year, as more gas becomes available.

The PMC contract awarded to Technip covers the onshore portion of the pipeline from Greece to Albania and in Italy.

The services comprises of the overall project and site management; procurement and subcontracting for all the EPC packages across the engineering, procurement and construction phases; along with warranty management and the project close-out.

Completion of the project is scheduled for the first quarter of 2020.

The services will be carried out at TAP’s headquarters in Baar, Switzerland, and Technip’s office in Rome, Italy, along with other project centers to be operating in Greece, Albania and Italy.
