據(jù)7月19日Neftegaz.RU報(bào)道，波斯尼亞-黑塞哥維那天然氣供應(yīng)商BH gas表示，該公司已獲得歐盟的批準(zhǔn)，可以啟動(dòng)一個(gè)將該國天然氣網(wǎng)絡(luò)與克羅地亞天然氣網(wǎng)絡(luò)連接起來的項(xiàng)目。

該公司表示，歐洲鄰里政策和擴(kuò)大談判總干事批準(zhǔn)了一項(xiàng)建設(shè)克羅地亞南部互聯(lián)互通項(xiàng)目的準(zhǔn)備工作。

這條新的天然氣管道將從南部從克羅地亞南部的扎格沃茲德（Zagvozd）延伸至Posu?je，再延伸至波斯尼亞和摩斯塔中部。BH Gas表示，希望這條獨(dú)立于俄羅斯的新供氣線路能在2023年前投入運(yùn)營(yíng)。

該項(xiàng)目的主要資金來源是歐洲復(fù)興開發(fā)銀行，它將提供一項(xiàng)有利的貸款安排。

歐盟目前將提供100萬歐元支持該項(xiàng)目。初始文件的編制工作已通過Connecta項(xiàng)目授予Mott MacDonald財(cái)團(tuán)。

波斯尼亞-黑塞哥維那目前完全依賴經(jīng)由匈牙利和塞爾維亞供應(yīng)的俄羅斯天然氣。通過扎格沃茲德的新管道應(yīng)能確保其進(jìn)入歐盟市場(chǎng)和克羅地亞亞得里亞海北部島嶼KRK未來的液化天然氣終端。

克羅地亞預(yù)計(jì)將修建一條從斯普利特到扎格沃茲德的60公里長(zhǎng)的管道作為該項(xiàng)目的一部分，而從扎格沃茲德到特拉夫尼克的整個(gè)路線是114公里，另外還有一條到莫斯塔爾，長(zhǎng)46公里的支線管道。

EU approves preparation of documentation for new Bosnia-Croatia gas pipeline

According to Total Croatia news, Bosnia and Herzegovina's gas supplier BH Gas said it had received permission from the EU to launch a project that would connect the country's gas grid to that of Croatia.

The Directorate-General for European Neighbourhood Policy and Enlargement Negotiations approved the preparation of a project to build the South Interconnection BH-Croatia, the company said.

The new gas pipeline would run from Zagvozd in southern Croatia to Posu?je and on to central Bosnia and Mostar. BH Gas said it hoped the new supply route, which would be independent of Russia, would be operational by 2023.

The main financier of the project is the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which will provide a favourable loan arrangement.

The EU will for now support the project with 1 million euro in grants. The job of preparation of initial documentation has been awarded to the Mott MacDonald consortium through the CONNECTA project.

Bosnia and Herzegovina is currently completely dependent on Russian gas, which is supplied via Hungary and Serbia. The new pipeline via Zagvozd should ensure it access to the EU market and the future LNG terminal on the northern Croatian Adriatic island of Krk.

Croatia is expected to build a 60-km long pipeline from Split to Zagvozd as part of the project, whereas the whole route from Zagvozd to Travnik is 114 km with an additional 46 km of a branch pipeline to Mostar.
