Expected Gas Sourcing
Gas sourcing will be decided by LNG terminal capacity users, who will have the freedom to arrange gas supplies and gas origin
Comments about the Third-Party Access Regime
TPA regime will be defined after market survey procedure (in our case Open Season)
Benefits
Main Driver
Regulation SoS
Main Driver Explanation
Importance of LNG terminal in Croatia is in possibility of providing natural gas to multiple countries in the region. Countries included: Hungary, Slovenia,
Austria, Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and
Herzegovina, Ukraine, Romania, and Bulgaria. Gas supply in the region is heavily dependent on one supply source and therefore LNG terminal in Croatia
represents a major diversification gas supply route in the region.
Benefit Description
Project benefits include: providing diversity of supply of natural gas, providing security of supply of natural gas, introducing the ecologically sound energy
source in the region, reducing COࢧemissions in the region, facilitating economic development, etc.
Reloading Ability
Yes
Time Schedule
Grant Obtention Date
20/11/2015
Delay Since Last TYNDP
None
Delay Explanation
In comparison with last TYNDP, there is no delay because the FSRU solution represents a fast track solution enabling the gas to flow from the
Island of Krk from Q1/2018. This represents a one year acceleration of the project comparing to the last TYNDP.

Barriers
Barrier Type
Description
Regulatory
National Regulatory Agency needs to approve missing regulatory framework for liquefied natural gas i.e. methodology for determination of tariff for
receiving LNG and gas send-out. In order for the project to be implemented on time, when the CBA/CBCA request is submitted to the Croatian NRA all of
the relevant NRA's (six identified countries) need to come to a fast decision.
