Background

Construction of the pipeline began in September 2020. The pipeline would provide 10% of Romania's total gas supply.

According to Black Sea Oil & Gas, the laying of the pipeline was finalized in January 2021. Production of gas from the Midia Gas Development was originally slated, as of August 2021, for Q4 of 2021.

As of October 2021, construction of the project was nearly complete but production was delayed, with commissioned scheduled for Q1 2022. In June 2022, Romania received the first shipments of natural gas extracted from the Midia Gas Development through this pipeline.
