The launch of this pre-qualification process is yet another step towards ensuring that Nabucco is ready to meet the gas delivery schedules of the Shah Deniz Consortium. The project, which is now in its advanced stage of development, recently announced the commencement of engineering design works for the 48 in. diameter pipeline with Saipem.
