Tworóg – Kędzierzyn-Koźle
Basic parameters and description of the project:
Project status:
Project location:
The gas pipeline runs through:
For most part, the gas pipeline route runs along the existing high-pressure gas pipeline.
- high pressure gas pipeline
- diameter: 1000 mm
- operating pressure: 8.4 MPa
- length: 43.4 km
Project status:
- investment completed (final acceptance October 2020)
- permit commissioning of the gas pipeline in May 2020, permit to operate in Agust 2020
- engineering phase completed with all necessary approvals required for the building permit decision obtained in 2017.
Project location:
The gas pipeline runs through:
- the Silesian Voivodeship, on the territory of the municipalities of: Tworóg, Wielowieś, Toszek and Rudziniec,
- the Opole Voivodeship, in the municipality of Kędzierzyn-Koźle.
For most part, the gas pipeline route runs along the existing high-pressure gas pipeline.
