The Soviets export gas pipeline will be commissioned in the fourth quarter of 1983. This is the world's biggest gas pipeline, about 2,800 miles long and valued at $10 billion. Work proceeds well ahead of schedule over the major part of the gas line which is to connect the Urengoi deposits in Siberia with the city of Uzhgorod on the Soviet Union's western border. Part of the gas to be carried by the Siberia-Western Europe line will help meet the Soviet Union's domestic needs.
