The project composes of implementation of reverse flow in Karksi metering station in Estonia and of a compressor station in Puiatu, Estonia. The reverse flow gas measuring station would be erected to the location of the existing measuring station in Karksi. Karksi reverse flow enables the measuring of gas quantities thru Estonia with the main advantages of reverse flow used after the commissioning of the Balticconnector offshore pipeline. Karksi reverse flow enables the full use of Inculkalns UGS for all the market participants. Puiatu compressor station enables the transportation of gas thru Estonia and the Balticconnector offshore pipeline to the Finnish gas market. The current system design does not enable the full use of the planned offshore pipeline without a compressor station in south of Estonia. Puiatu compressor station is an integral part of the physical implementations needed for market integration between the Baltics and Finland. The Regulators of Finland Energiavirasto and Estonia Konkurentsiamet have made a common CBCA decision for the Balticconnector and Estonia Latvia interconnection project.
