The construction works of the Ungheni – Chi\u0219in\u0103u pipeline were launched today.\u00a0 The Prime Minister of the Republic of Moldova, Pavel Filip and the Vice Prime Minister for Romania’s Strategic Partnerships’ Implementation, Ana Birchall attended the event.<\/p>\n

The Ungheni –\u00a0Chi\u0219in\u0103u gas pipeline is the second phase of the Ia\u0219i – Ungheni – Chi\u0219in\u0103u interconnection project. The section Ia\u0219i-Ungheni pipeline was put into operation in 2014, and now the gas pipeline is to be extended to Chi\u0219in\u0103u.<\/p>\n

The realisation of the second phase of the project involves the construction of the gas transport pipeline, the three natural gas delivery stations and the control centre in Ghidighici. The works will be carried out by the Romanian company Transgaz within a period of maximum 23 months.<\/p>\n

Pavel Filip mentioned that the Ungheni –\u00a0Chi\u0219in\u0103u gas pipeline project is of national interest and of strategic importance.\u00a0A volume of almost 1 million\u00a0m3<\/sup> of gas was delivered every year through the Ia\u0219i – Ungheni pipeline. That resulted in providing Romanian gas for the Ungheni city and several nearby localities in the recent years.<\/p>\n

After the implementation of the project’s second phase and an investment of 93 million EUR, the Ungheni –\u00a0Chi\u0219in\u0103u gas pipeline, with a length of 120 km, will provide the entire country with the necessary volume of natural gas.<\/p>\n

“Today, we make the second step towards our country’s energy security and independence. During many years, the gas price was used as a scarecrow by those who delivered gas to Moldova, but now we are approaching the day when this will not happen again. Our country will be able to take decisions for the benefit of its citizens without risking any danger. And that’s because we have the second alternative source,”<\/strong> the prime minister declared in a press release<\/a> of the Government of the Republic of Moldova.<\/p>\n

Ana Birchall reiterated the firm commitment of the Romanian side to further support Moldova in its European path, including with energy infrastructure projects. “Romania was and will remain the strongest supporter of the Republic of Moldova. Through such strategic projects we aim to achieve an irreversible connection of the Republic of Moldova to the European Union and we want to contribute to ensuring a better living for every citizen of the Republic of Moldova<\/strong>,” said Ana Birchall.<\/p>\n
