BURNS
Albania is called by their people “Shqiperia” which means “land of the eagles”. The symbol
of the double-headed eagle in the Albania flag has been used for the first time in black
over red in the seals of general Skanderbeg, a national hero who led the revolt and won
against the Ottoman Empire in 1449. This symbol is also used in the flag or coat of arms in
other countries in the Balkans and Central/Eastern Europe.

Eagle LNG: Project introduction
• Burns, through its subsidiary Trans European Energy, signed in 2008 a thirty-year Permit
Agreement with the Albanian Government concerning the construction and operation of
the “Eagle LNG” project:
– LNG import terminal: 4-8 Bcma floating FSRU vessel for the import and re-
gasification of LNG, located offshore the Albania coast;
– Subsea gas pipeline: 10 Bcma, 110 km connecting the terminal to Italy and Albania.
• Total investment of around 700 mil Euro
• Albania will in the first years absorb up to 0.5 - 1.0 Bcma for its own consumption and
then up to 2 - 3 Bcma including export to other Southeast Europe – Western Balkan
countries once the planned gas grids are developed. The balance will be exported to Italy
and other EU countries.
• Burns is an Italian gas integrated group active in gas import, marketing, trading and
distribution. Their shareholders also own an infrastructure construction company that has
build 300 km of gas networks in Italy.

Eagle LNG: Construction schedule
§ Construction of the onshore pipeline in Italy and downward grid upgrade is expected to take about
24 months from FID and can be performed by SRG
§ The laydown and test of the offshore pipeline will take 2-3 months. Including the two landings, the
pipeline will be operational 8 months from the delivery of the steel pipes in the harbour of Brindisi
§ If FID is reached in Q4/2016 and the subsea steel pipelines are delivered in Q4/2017, the offshore
pipelines can be operational by Q2/2018.
§ The FSRU can be delivered within 24 months from order (at FID) which means that the whole project
(regas and offshore pipeline system) can be ready from end 2018.
§ In the same 24 months period from FID, SRG would have connected the offshore pipeline to their grid.
The whole system could then be ready with the Commercial Operation Date 2018.

FSRU Mooring System
The FSRU is compatible with Single Anchor Mooring System, which offer the maximum cost, safety
and efficiency benefits.
Complete Single Anchor Loading System, denoted SAL system, comprising:
1) SAL mooring system; 2) Riser system; 3) Anchor assembly
From an operational point of view, a system with the FSRU free to adopt optimum heading
seems most feasible, both with respect to safety and efficiency.

Eagle LNG: The Italian Onshore Pipeline
Selected 18 km corridor for onshore pipeline from beach to high pressure national gas grid
• The landing location of the Italian pipeline has been selected in Puglia (south of Brindisi) among
four alternatives to minimise the environmental impact onshore and offshore (seagrass Posidonia
oceanica).
• The project includes the construction of the receiving station in Italy, located appx 2 km onshore.
From there Snam Rete Gas will build a16 km of onshore pipeline to connect to the high pressure
national grid.
• This interconnection in Italy will benefit from the planned Adriatica Pipeline, promoted by Snam
Rete Gas, to reinforce the entry capacity in South Italy to transport up to 9 Bcma to North of Italy
and in reverse flow towards central and Western countries trough Switzerland and Austria.

Eagle LNG: Strategic Role 1/2
The project is strategic for Italy, Balkans and Europe:
1. Increases security of gas supply – LNG means no long-term dependency on a single
supply country and no political risk in the transit countries.
2. Brings cheaper sources of gas – as from 2017, LNG should be available in abundance at
competitive prices for Europe from the USA (shale gas) and Qatar, which will divert some of
its Asian volumes once the new mega-infrastructures exporting LNG from Australia are
operational.
3. Facilitates the gasification of SEE - Gas demand in SEE is expected to reach 41 Bcma by
2025. Eagle LNG would contribute to cover the expected gas supply gap in the region of 23
Bcma.
4. Develops a gas hub in SEE and Italy – SEE: new suppliers, new market participants,
connection with planned pipelines. Italy: increases competition and reduces the impact of oil
formulas on gas pricing.
5. Integration of market areas – pipeline implements a missing bidirectional interconnection
between Italy/Western Europe/North Africa and the Balkans

22. 21
BURNS
Eagle LNG: Strategic Role 2/2
6. Coverage of peak demand – trough the LNG procurement and storage flexibility, trough the
connection with planned underground gas storage in Albania
7. Supports the Albanian economic development – Albania doesn’t currently have a high-
pressure gas grid but the development of the gas infrastructure and the gas market is its
highest energy priority. Albania needs to build at least 800 MW of gas-fired power plants to
guarantee network stability and to develop its industry.
8. The simplest and quickest route to bring gas to Italy and the Western Balkans – project
fully approved in Albania, Italian approval and completion of engineering expected in 2016,
less than two years required for construction. No other gas project in Italy or Albania, either
LNG or pipeline, will be capable of been completed by 2018
9. Efficient cost base in the industry – due to the short length of the subsea pipeline, to the
modern and efficient floating regasification technology (FSRU) and to the fast construction
time. It doesn’t require expensive multi country agreements.
10. Minimal environmental impact – a floating vessel 6 km offshore in Albania and a gas
pipeline in Italy

§ Gas infrastructure hugely needed in Albania:
§ no existing gas domestic production and import
§ currently only renewable power generation which creates grid instability
§ need for base-load gas fired power generation, clean and reliable
§ Eagle LNG is designed in particular to serve:
§ the 97 MW Combined Cycle Power Plant of Vlorë (to be expanded)
§ New built CCGT power plants in Albania
§ industries located to the prospective Industrial Park of Elbasan
§ the growing domestic and industrial demand
§ the export to neighboring countries
§ Employment, modern technology and specialized know-how to Albania with training for
local staff
§ The project will stimulate the socio economic development of the region and will help in
improving infrastructure and in the emancipation of its population.

Gasification of the Balkan Region:
The Gas Ring Project • The Gas Ring Project could develop
transmission infrastructure connecting
seven of the ungasified or less gasified
countries in the in the Balkan region with
the major import transmission pipelines
delivering gas in SEE countries
• The project is divided into several stages
– In the first stage gas will be delivered to
power plants in ungasified areas on the
Adriatic cost
– In the following stage new areas will be
gasified and new supply points
connected
• The project will also link SEE markets with
Bulgaria, Romania, Greece and Hungary
and will create the conditions for region-
wide gas trading
The Eagle LNG terminal might become a crucial gas source to supply Albania
and the countries connected to the Gas Ring

Albanian Gas Reservoirs and Salt Domes
• Depleted gas reservoirs and salt domes in
Albania constitute a very important
contributing element to security of supply and
trading.
• Total storage capacity of about 2-3 Bcm.
• The salt dome at Diapir of Dumrea (1-2 Bcm)
and the depleted gas field of Divjaka (1 Bcm)
are close to the LNG terminal and good
areas to serve as a peak and seasonal
storage.
• The design of underground gas deposits is a
project of regional interest and with a
particular importance for Albania and Italy.
• The gas storage will provide a strategic
reserve for the region and flexibility to
complement the supply from the LNG
Terminal to the benefit of Albania, SEE and
Italy.

• Existing gas supply infrastructure in EnC can’t
met N-1
• Several new projects have been considered to
fill the gap
• Without South Stream a scenario with all UGS,
other gas interconnections and Eagle LNG
meets the criterion from 2015
• N-1 criterion for Albania met by TAP or Eagle
LNG
• Without South Stream the N-1 criterion for the
EnC region requires several infrastructures
altogether including Eagle LNG

33. 32
BURNS
• Eagle LNG is an efficient solution
– Quick development: because of low complexity, cost and environmental impact
– Sound investment: competitive tolling fees and superior returns on investment
• The terminal will operate in the European dimension, in the light of the foreseen
Italian future role as a European Gas Hub and future Albanian interconnection with other
Balkan countries
• The pipeline will have strategic value as reversible interconnection between Italy and
the Balkans
Eagle LNG together with TAP, IAP and the gas storage projects is well suited to have
an important role in Albania, in Italy, in the fast track development of the Balkan gas
markets and for the security of supply in Europe.
