This study aims to create this overarching view, a picture of existing and planned projects, which includes not only oil and gas pipelines, but also regasification terminals. It looks at imports from the North (Norway, the United Kingdom), the South (Algeria), and above all the East (Russia and the CIS). This objective runs up against the limits of this type of research: a general approach inevitably leads to a lack of details in regional projects and issues.
