The Ionian Adriatic Pipeline (IAP) is a proposed natural gas pipeline in Western Balkans. It would run from Fier in Albania though Montenegro, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, to Split in Croatia.
In Fier, IAP would be connected with the planned Trans Adriatic Pipeline. Trans Adriatic Pipeline AG has signed memorandums with understanding with developers of the IAP project, including Plinacro (Croatia), BH-Gas (Bosnia and Herzegovina), and governments of Montenegro and Albania.[1][2][3]
In Split, the pipeline would be connected with the existing gas transmission system of Croatia. In addition, it may be connected with other new gas infrastructure, including the proposed Adria LNG terminal in Krk.[1][2]
The length of pipeline would be 516 kilometres (321 mi). The pipeline would be bi-directional and its capacity would be 5 billion cubic metres (180 billion cubic feet) of natural gas per year.[1][2]
The ministerial declaration on the IAP project was signed on 25 September 2007 in the framework of the Energy Community.[4]
