Delays of the construction of LNG terminal in Swinoujscie

No comments :



The LNG terminal, which is being constructed in Swinoujscie, has been closely examined by the Supreme Chamber of Control ( in Polish: Najwyzsza Izba Kontroli, NIK). NIK has been preparing report on the emerging strategic investment in Swinoujscie, which seem to not be very positive. Inspectors note that the LNG terminal has not been put to use, yet and the plan for its opening is constantly rescheduled:  from the end of June last year, as originally planned, to the end of 2014, as it was written in the annex to the new agreement. Currently, the terminal is still not in use. Due to all those factors, there is a high risk of loss of EU subsidies for the construction of this terminal.
