Nabucco Open Season Process



NABUCCO Gas Pipeline International GmbH hereby announces the launch of the Open Season process for capacity booking in the Nabucco pipeline.

This first phase of the Open Season process offers potential shippers the possibility to register their interest in booking capacity in the pipeline and to request access to the Open Season documents, following which they can provide non-binding capacity bookings.

The Open Season documents include the details of the Open Season process, the form of gas transportation agreement and the related network code, setting out the terms and conditions proposed by the transporter for transportation services through the Nabucco pipeline.  

About the Open Season Process:

The first phase of the Open Season process is envisaged to be concluded by the end of Q 2 2013.

Following the successful conclusion of this phase, shippers will be invited to submit binding bids. The initiation of the binding bid phase is foreseen to take place in Q 3 2013.

Please note that in order to provide for a certain level of flexibility, NABUCCO Gas Pipeline International GmbH reserves the right to extend or otherwise vary the timetable of the Open Season process.
