Background

In October 2013 the European Union granted the status of Project of Common Interest to the pipeline, making it eligible for EU funding. A contract to build the pipeline was signed in December 2016. The project received a €79,155,502 co-financing grant in 2014 from the European Regional Development Fund under the Operational Program Infrastructure and Environment 2014-2020.

The European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas Ten Year Network Development Plan project code for this pipeline is "TRA-F-247."

The Zdzieszowice - Wrocław project is divided into two sections: Section I: Brzeg - Zębice - Kiełczów and Section II: Zdzieszowice - Brzeg. The contractor for the construction of the Section I was STALPROFIL SA. The contractor for the construction of Section II was IDS-BUD SA.

Section I was completed in June 2020.

As of December 2020, Gaz-System's website states that construction of the entire project - both sections - has been completed.
