| 摘要： | In 1993 gas accounted for 18 % of primary energy consumption in western Germany and 14 % in eastern Germany. The technical prerequisite for gas being able to achieve this high market share has been the availability of a nationwide transmission and distribution system through which the gas can be moved from the production fields or border delivery points to the end consumer in a safe, environmentally compatible and economic manner. Germany’s energy consumers receive their gas through a ramified 280,000 km pipeline system, 44,000 km of which are operated by gas merchant companies and 236,000 km by regional and local distribution companies. In the gas transmission system it is not only the pipelines but also the compressor stations and underground storage facilities which play an important role. In 1993 the mainline compressor stations had an installed capacity of approx. 850 MW and the useful working gas volume of the underground storage facilities was roughly 10.3 billion m*. The gas is stored in both salt cavities and storage reservoirs depending on the geological conditions prevailing and the supply requirements. Storage capacities are being continually increased to cover the increasing demand for peak shaving. The transmission system is also in a phase of dynamic expansion. Construction work is concentrated in the north German region where high-capacity pipelines are being built to carry the increasing quantities of Norwegian gas from foe Troll project from the North Sea coast to the consumption centres in the Ruhr area and eastern Germany. Ruhrgas AG is playing a major role both in the existing system and in the new northern system which is to be built up. |
