Rehabilitation of two gas pipes crossing the river Nemunas in Kaunas, Lithuania. Final report

Abstract

Kauno Dujos, Kaunas Gas, is supplying natural gas to a domestic market including a number of industrial consumers. At the appraisal stage of this project, the natural gas supply system in Kaunas was suffering from insufficient supply capacity. One of the reasons for the problems occurred was that severe corrosion in some of the old steel gas pipe system caused leakages. The objective for the projects is to restore natural gas supply in river crossing no. 3 and then increase the supply for industries and residential housing. Furthermore it is an objective to improve the security of supply in case of necessary disconnections of other main pipes, due to leakages or other events. The present project has been suggested by the Lithuanian authorities in October 1992 for financing under the Danish `InterMinisterielle Oestlandepulje`-funds under the Lithuanian - Danish governmental negotiations. The two pipes were rehabilitated on 4-5 November 1994. Kaunas Gas has subsequently made the `tie-in` connections to the existing gas networks, so that gas supply in the two rehabilitated pipes was restored. At present the final documentation is being assembled by the contractor for the client`s and the Recipient`s final approval. Provisional approvals have, however, been collected from the  More>>
