SUMMARY
The TENP pipeline was planned at the beginning of the 70's as the German part of the pipeline system that had to supply Dutch gas to Italy. Today the TENP pipeline system, together with the Transitgas pipeline, plays a key role in the supply of Norwegian gas to the German, Swiss and Italian markets.
The pipeline runs across the German territory for about 500 kilometres, from Bocholtz, at the Dutch border, where the TENP pipeline system is connected to the Dutch network operated by Gas Transport Services, to the Swiss border, close to Wallbach, where the TENP pipeline system is interconnected with the Transitgas pipeline system.
