The baltic-pipe-project

The Baltic Pipe Project is being developed by both GAZ-SYSTEM S.A. and Energinet.dk as co-investors. The 36” Baltic Pipe offshore pipeline will be installed between the east coast of Denmark and the northern coast of Poland with first gas scheduled to flow from Denmark to Poland in October 2022.
Baltic Pipe is recognised as an EU PCI project, with the purpose of the project being to further strengthen the European internal energy market by reaching the EU’s energy policy objectives of affordable, secure and sustainable energy.
The Baltic Pipe Project involves the construction of a new bi-directional gas pipeline system that will connect the existing gas transmission systems of Denmark and Poland and for the first time enable shippers to flow gas directly from Norway to the markets in Denmark, Poland and their neighbouring markets. Baltic Pipe will also allow shippers to flow gas from Poland to the Danish and Swedish markets.

Steffel KKS GmbH is proud to be involved with our clients in this important European project.

EUGAL: A secure energy supply for Europe
– and we’re involved.

The demand for natural gas in Europe is rising. The new EUGAL pipeline will significantly consolidate the security of the natural gas supply to Germany and Europe, and a big milestone has now been reached. Under construction for almost one and half years, the first string of the EUGAL European Gas Pipeline Link is now complete. From 2020 onwards, EUGAL will provide the transport capacity for another 30.9 billion cubic meters of gas per year. And we’re proud of ourselves: Steffel has been closely involved in the pipeline’s construction over virtually its entire length.

Only a pipeline that is working safely and reliably can be operated efficiently – that’s the reason one of Steffel’s priorities was to ensure the pipeline was laid flawlessly. Steffel’s personnel are now applying their commitment and expertise to completing the pipeline’s second string.

Further details on the EUGAL pipeline are available here.

Steffel involved in the ZEELINK project

ZEELINK is the largest single project in the National Development Plan Gas 2015 (NEP) of the Federal Network Agency. The gas pipeline connects to the LNG terminal in Zeebrugge and thus contributes to route and source diversification to supply Germany with natural gas. Steffel KKS GmbH, in cooperation with KORUPP GmbH, provides for the extensive project the necessary capacity. In addition to the supply of protective current devices for CP, the assessment of coating quality and measurements during construction, measures to reduce the interference of high voltage from nearby OHL are an essential part of the scope of works.
