The pipelines for brine transport between UGS Damasławek and Inowrocław
Basic parameters and description of the project:
The pipelines for brine transport between UGS Damasławek and Inowrocław make part of the
programme to develop the Damasławek Underground Gas Storage Facility in the municipalities of Janowiec Wielkopolski and Żnin in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship. The brine pipelines will be routed through the municipalities of: Żnin, Barcin, Dąbrowa, Pakość, Janikowo, Inowrocław.
The construction of these pipelines is essential for salt mining from the Damasławek salt dome and the subsequent development of an underground gas storage facility. The pipelines will be used to transport brine from the planned Damasławek Underground Gas Storage Facility to the Janikosoda Chemical Plant in Janikowo, the Soda Mątwy Chemical Plant in Inowrocław and the Salt Mine and Underground Oil and Fuel Storage Facility in Góra.
Project status:
Project route and location:
The pipelines for brine will be routed through the territories of the following municipalities: Żnin, Barcin, Dąbrowa, Pakość, Janikowo, Inowrocław.

- Two pipelines between Damasławek and Janikowo, each with a diameter of 500 mm
- Janikowo-Góra pipeline with a diameter of 500 mm
- Connecting pipeline to Inowrocław with a diameter of 450 mm
- Operating pressure 6.3 MPa
- Length approx. 64 km
Project status:
- preliminary engineering

- The development of new storage infrastructure, including the Damasławek UGS -Inowrocław water transmission supply, will create the possibility of storing gas in periods of low demand (summer) and using it when the demand is peaking, e.g. in winter.
- The project will improve the country's energy security and stimulate competition on the gas market. The construction of the UGS facility together with the Damasławek UGS -Inowrocław brine transport pipelines, will improve the condition of the natural environment and the quality of life by enabling the replacement of high-emission solid fuels with natural gas.
- The construction of the Damasławek Underground Gas Storage Facility and the Czyżkówko - PMG Damasławek water transmission supply will contribute to the increased investment attractiveness of the region, development of local businesses and creation of new jobs.
- GAZ-SYSTEM will pay property tax at the annual rate of 2% of the value of the transmission infrastructure to be located in the territory of each municipality. These funds will feed the municipality budget, and will be used for local community needs, such as the development of local infrastructure.
The project is implemented on the basis of the provisions of the Act of 27 January 2022 on the preparation and implementation of strategic investments in the oil sector (for consolidated text see Journal of Laws of 2022, item 483).
In November 2021, GAZ-SYSTEM held a series of consultation meetings in the municipalities where brine pipelines between Damasławek Underground Gas Storage Facility and Inowrocław are planned. The meetings were open to all interested parties. The purpose of the consultations was to provide information on the project and to collect feedback.
Under a special act regulating gas infrastructure projects, compensation payments are guaranteed to the owners of the land affected by the project development.
The compensation payment process is carried out in accordance with an administrative procedure, under the supervision of the competent Voivode. First, an independent expert is commissioned to carry out an assessment, which is the basis for determining the amount of compensation. Upon completion of the construction process, the Voivode issues an administrative decision specifying the amount of compensation due.
For more information about the compensation payments and construction process see the section For Landowners.
