The signing ceremony will take place on Wednesday afternoon in Sofia, Bulgaria’s Energy Ministry announced on Tuesday.
Bulgartransgaz and Transgaz are jointly implementing the project which aims to diversify their gas supply sources and routes. The two companies have been granted up to EUR 8.9 M for project financing under the European Energy Programme for Recovery (EEPR).
