Gas transportRenforcement Gascogne Midi (RGM)

2015-2018

Inaugurated on 1st November 2018, the RGM project has allowed Teréga to improve its gas transport grid by increasing its transit capacities between the North and South of France. This project is strategic for Teréga because it allows the removal of congestion affecting supplies of gas from the south, making prices the same across the whole country. RGM has allowed the introduction of the single market area, known as TRF (Trading Region France).
