Time Schedule

Grant Obtention Date Delay Since Last TYNDP

20/11/2015

None

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.

Delay Explanation

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

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. 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 CO₂emissions in the region, facilitating economic development, etc.

Description

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.
