Project Details

Background

The pipeline allowed to bypass the territory of Ukraine when deliveries gas to consumers in the Rostov, Krasnodar and Stavropol Oblast of Russia. EEGA (East European Gas Analysis), a consulting company that specializes in cost-benefit and financial analysis of natural gas projects in the former Soviet Union, claimed that the Sokhranovka-Oktyabrskaya gas pipeline was one of Gazprom's political projects with little economic sense: "The gas monopolist has invested, according to the most conservative estimates, more than a billion dollars in order to deprive Ukraine of a small transit income. The benefits of the project are highly questionable, as Gazprom's additional operating costs will significantly exceed the costs of transit through Ukraine."[3]
