The State is mobilized the gas connection to be completed before the beginning of the cold season. This is what was the Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Crisis Group, Hristo Alexiev, said after an inspection with the Minister of Regional Development and Public Works, Ivan Shishkov, of the route in the Bulgarian section of the Intersystem Gas Connection Greece-Bulgaria.
Hristo Alexiev firmly stated that the Government provides full support to the builder to complete that project. "As you can clearly see, this is just one construction and I expect a coherent schedule for the implementation of the work program", he noted. The Deputy Prime Minister inspected all critical sites. "Work is done at the fastest pace to complete the construction, as well as the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System of the interconnector to make it operational", he added.
According to him, the Crisis Group is making round-the-clock efforts to follow the prioritized tasks. "The first priority for us is the gas connection, the second is the stabilization of Bulgargaz EAD. The company is in a difficult financial situation with an ascertained deficit of over BGN 1 billion and does not have sufficient funds to pay for supplies. The question of who is the supplier is not the most important at the moment", Deputy Prime Minister Hristo Alexiev noted.
