    Description
    Objectives

    The project consists of three schemes: the expansion of the LNG-Terminal in Sines, the construction of a compressor station at Carregado and the expansion of the Carriço underground storage.

    To support the beneficiary’s investment plan which aims at reinforcing and extending the natural gas system throughout Portugal.

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    The project schemes (with the exception of the compression station) need environmental assessments as required in the EIA Directive 85/337/EC and amendments of 1997 and 2003. By their technical characteristics all schemes fall under Annex I or II of the directive.

    Investments under the project are subject to the procurement procedures as defined in Directive 2004/17/EC for entities operating in the water, energy, transport and postal services sector.
