据路透社华沙、奥斯陆报道，波兰国有天然气管道运营商Gaz-System上周五表示，波兰和丹麦的天然气运营商已经作出最终投资决策：通过丹麦领土和波罗的海，建造一条连接波兰和挪威气田的天然气管道。
这条被称为波罗的海管道长为900公里 (560英里) ，旨在减少波兰对俄罗斯天然气的依赖。预计到 2022年, 波兰与俄罗斯天然气公司（Gazprom）的长期交易到期后, 波罗的海管道将准备就绪。
负责电力和天然气基础设施的波兰政府官员Piotr Naimski在新闻发布会上宣布了这家国营公司的决定，他说：“该管道波罗的海海底部分的建设将于2020年春季开始。”
他表示，在开始施工之前，仍需要当局的环境和其他许可。
这条管道的产能将达到每年100亿立方米，而几乎所有的产量都是由波兰石油天然气公司PGNiG预订的，该公司计划每年从挪威的气田中生产25亿立方米天然气。
波兰能源部长Krzysztof Tchorzewski在新闻发布会上表示，波罗的海管道是南北天然气走廊的一部分，该走廊连接着波兰与一个位于克罗地亚的LNG终端，途经捷克共和国、斯洛伐克和匈牙利。
波罗的海管道耗资约16亿至21亿欧元（18亿美元至24亿美元），将从波兰北部穿过波罗的海瑞典水域和丹麦领土，并与北海管道连接。
挪威天然气系统运营商Gassco的Sten Arve Eide称：“通往丹麦的新线路将多提供一个天然气输送出口点，Gassco将按照天然气所有者的提名交付天然气，这不会影响挪威的天然气出口总量。”
挪威满足了欧洲约四分之一的天然气需求，是仅次于俄罗斯的第二大天然气供应国。它的大部分货物是通过海上管道网络运送到英国、德国、法国和比利时。
2015年，波兰在波罗的海开设了首个LNG码头，这是波兰努力实现供应来源多样化的一部分，波兰打算扩大该设施。

Polish, Danish grid firms give final nod to pipeline link to Norway gas fields
The Polish and Danish gas grid operators have taken a final investment decision to build a gas pipeline linking Poland to Norwegian fields via Danish territory and the Baltic Sea, Poland’s state-owned Gaz-System said The 900-km (560-mile) pipeline, known as the Baltic Pipe, aims to reduce Poland’s reliance “Construction of the section under the Baltic Sea will start in Spring 2020,” Piotr Naimski, the Polish government official responsible for power and gas infrastructure, told a news conference to announce the decision by the state company.
He said environment and other permits from the authorities were still required before construction could start.
The pipeline’s capacity will be 10 billion cubic meters (bcm) a year, with almost all of it booked by Polish state-run gas firm PGNiG. The company plans to produce 2.5 bcm a year of gas from holdings in Norwegian deposits.
Polish Energy Minister Krzysztof Tchorzewski told the news conference that Baltic Pipe was part of the North-South Gas Corridor a project to link Poland to a liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal in Croatia, via the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary.
The Baltic Pipe, costing about 1.6 billion to 2.1 billion euros ($1.8 billion to $2.4 billion), will run from the north of Poland through Swedish waters in the Baltic Sea and Danish territory where it would be linked to a North Sea pipeline.
Sten Arve Eide from Gassco, Norway’s gas system operator, said the new link to Denmark would offer “one more exit point available for gas deliveries.”
“Gassco will deliver the gas in accordance with the gas owners nominations. This will not affect the total gas exports from Norway,” he said.
Norway meets about a quarter of Europe’s natural gas needs and is the second largest supplier after Russia. Most of its deliveries are via a network of offshore pipelines to Britain, Germany, France and Belgium.
In 2015, Poland opened its first LNG terminal
