Description

This project addresses the 'LNG Regasification Infrastructure' component of PCI 5.19 'Malta Connection' and reflects the results from the pre-

feasibility study concluded in April 2015 which identified the Malta-Italy gas pipeline interconnection (TRA-N-031) as the first phase of the PCI which

will end Malta's isolation from the Trans European gas network. Following completion of this first phase and subject to further in-depth analysis and

market development; a second future phase consisting of a Floating Storage and Regasification Unit berthed approximately 12km offshore from

Malta together with an associated pipeline infrastructure to Delimara (Malta) is being planned. This project, besides meeting Malta ·s natural gas

requirements, shall provide for the possibility of exporting natural gas to the European Natural Gas network through the gas interconnector which

will enable it to operate in bi-directional flow mode. TRA-N-031 and LNG-N-211 are complementary projects.
