Baltic Offshore Pipeline – 2,425 m €

The Baltic Offshore Pipeline is an additional pipeline to be built in the Baltic Sea. The Baltic Offshore Pipeline will connect Rodvig in Denmark with Niechorze in Poland. Construction started at the beginning of 2021 and was planned to be completed by 2022. Considering the current geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe and the incidents surrounding the Nord Stream pipeline in the Baltic Sea, the final completion and commissioning could be postponed to 2023. It remains to be seen whether the construction costs of an estimated 2.425 million Euro will therefore also increase significantly. As a matter of fact, the benefits of a direct pipeline between Poland and Denmark will be great. At the time of planning and the start of construction, however, it was not yet possible to foresee how drastically the situation in Ukraine would develop and what influence this would have on the price of gas. As things stand, however, not putting the Baltic Offshore Pipeline into operation is not an option for the operators at the moment.
