Infrastructure Projects

Scope & Objective

To achieve a transparent, non-discriminatory and objective approach to gas infrastructure projects within the framework of TYNDP, ENTSOG prepared the following questionnaire aiming at collecting the same relevant information about such projects. It covers FID projects as well as those at a less advanced stage of development.

When developing the questionnaire, ENTSOG also considered the impact of the future regulation on investment project notification.

Addressees

All non-ENTSOG members that are sponsors of a gas infrastructure project and believe their project should be included in the TYNDP 2011-2020 (TYNDP).

Conditions for Project Inclusion in TYNDP

ENTSOG will include all the projects in the TYNDP for which all the requested information has been submitted by the project sponsor(s). All such information will also be published in the TYNDP.

Information shall be submitted separately for each project or each part of the project (in case of projects developed in more than one phase in terms of capacity). Information shall be submitted in the format as presented below.

Each submission shall also include contact details of the person responsible for the submission who can be contacted by ENTSOG if there is any need for clarification.
