On 28 June 2012 in Baku, the Shah Deniz Consortium announced that "Nabucco West" is to become a preferred partner for the distribution of gas within Central Europe. Rather than opting for a one-step-approach, the Consortium had decided to go ahead on the basis of a regional pre-selection. These regions are: Central Europe, Southern Europe and Turkey. Nabucco West, aiming to bring gas from the Western Turkish border to Baumgarten (Vienna, Austria), has been pre-selected to deliver gas to the region of Central Europe. With this decision, the offer of the competitor South East Europe Pipeline (SEEP, owned by BP) has been turned down. |
