Transalpine Pipeline, Oil pipeline from Trieste to Karlsruhe through Austria and Germany
The Transalpine Pipeline extends 752 kilometers through mountainous terrain, connecting the marine terminal in Trieste with distribution points in central Europe.
The pipeline started operations in 1967 following a feasibility study by Bechtel in 1963, requiring an initial investment of 192 million US dollars.
Eight international oil companies form a consortium to manage this infrastructure, representing a collaboration between European and American enterprises.
The pipeline system maintains ten pumping stations and storage facilities in Trieste and Lenting, handling 43 million tons of crude oil annually.
In Vohburg, the pipeline connects to the Ingolstadt-Kralupy-Litvínov pipeline, enabling oil distribution to refineries in the Czech Republic.
