As Greece’s largest direct foreign investment, the construction of the Trans Adriatic Pipeline will be a major contribution to supporting Greece in becoming a key hub in the energy map of South-eastern Europe.
As a project of such strategic importance for Greece, we are now entering the final phase as TAP prepares for commercial and operational readiness in order to receive first gas. I am confident that Katerina’s many years of experience and deep expertise and knowledge of the energy industry, of Greece and of the Southern Gas Corridor will be instrumental in successfully and safely delivering our project in Greece.”
