The Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) has transported its 50th billion cubic metre (bcm) of natural gas to Europe since the start of commercial operations. This significant achievement demonstrates TAP’s role in ensuring a reliable, diversified gas supply to Europe, while enhancing competition and contributing to decarbonisation efforts across South-Eastern Europe.​

TAP, as the European segment of the Southern Gas Corridor, brings natural gas from Azerbaijan to European markets. Since it began commercial operations in late 2020, TAP has delivered:​

  • over 41.7 bcm to Italy,​
  • over 4.8 bcm to Greece,​
  • over 3.2 bcm to Bulgaria.

“Reaching 50 bcm is more than a milestone – it’s a clear demonstration of TAP’s strategic role in strengthening Europe’s energy security and supporting climate goals. By safely and reliably delivering gas from a new source and a new route, TAP has helped diversify South-Eastern Europe’s energy mix and reduce reliance on heavier fossil fuels, while also progressing along a decarbonisation pathway for our operations.”

Luca Schieppati, TAP’s Managing Director

“Looking into the future, we are ready to further contribute to these goals. In fact, the first level of TAP’s capacity expansion – set to add 1.2 bcm of long-term capacity per year from the start of 2026 – is already underway and will enable us to do even more. This could pave the way for further capacity expansions through Market Tests, depending on demand and the evolution of Europe’s energy landscape.”
