Eustream
Eustream operates a gas transmission network in the Slovak Republic whose primary mission is to transport natural gas to Slovakia and across its territory to European markets. The company has been performing this role since 1972.
Eustream’s transport system provides an important energy link between the East and the West, and between the North and the South. The robust system of parallel lines is connected to the primary transmission routes in the Ukraine, Hungary, Austria, Czech Republic and Poland.
Eustream‘s services are used by major European energy companies. Access to the system and gas transport are provided to all partners in a transparent and non-discriminatory manner, in accordance with the European and Slovak gas legislation.
The transmission system consists of four to five parallel pipes, of 1,200 or 1,400 mm in diameter, with an operating pressure of 7.35 MPa. The capacity necessary for continuous gas flow is provided by five compressor stations with an output of almost 550 MW. Access to the transmission system is entry-exit based. For entering and exiting the system customers can choose from the following entry/exit points:
o Veľké Kapušany (point to/from the natural gas transmission network in Ukraine)
o Baumgarten (point to/from the natural gas transmission network in Austria)
o Lanžhot (point to/from the natural gas transmission network in Czech Republic)
