Austria has joined Bulgaria, Serbia, Hungary, Greece, Slovenia and Croatia in agreeing to host sections of the Russian South Stream gas pipeline to Southeastern, Southern and Central Europe. The pipe will run under the Black Sea to Bulgaria and then branch in the directions of Greece, Italy and also Austria and Slovakia. The flow should amount to 65 billion cubic metres a year. Austria alone should get at least 2 billion cubic metres. The pipe’s resource base can ensure a stable supply for at least a century.
