PZEM Pipe

The PZEM pipeline is a 54.8 kilometer long steel highpressure gas pipeline with a diameter of 48” (1200 mm) and is built for the transport of natural gas with a maximum operating pressure of 79.9 bar(g). PZEM’s pipeline connects the Sloe power station in Vlissingen-East to the Gasunie national gas grid at Woensdrecht/Ossendrecht. The process flow monitoring for the pipeline is controlled from the tradefloor (Dispatching) at PZEM in Middelburg.

In addition to the primary transport function for the Sloe power plant, trading uses this asset as a storage facility.
