Aspects environnementaux
The technical characteristics and potential impacts of the project components suggest environmental assessments to be conducted; Ukrainian legislation requires such assessments. The intended repair and rehabilitation measures are typical sector activities that do usually not result in significant negative residual impacts on the environment. Impacts are mostly temporary during construction works. The better efficiency of the new compressor units will result in a lower specific fuel consumption and less greenhouse gases emitted.
