Chemieanlagenbau Chemnitz builds further underground storage reservoirs in Austria

Chemieanlagenbau Chemnitz (CAC) has been awarded by Rohöl-Aufsuchungs Aktiengesellschaft Wien, Austria (RAG) an order for the planning and realisation of two additional natural gas underground storage reservoirs in Oberkling and Pfaffstädt.

Thus the long and successful cooperation between both partner will be further intensified. CAC's scope of services includes part of the authority engineering, basic and detail engineering, procurement of all services and supplies on behalf of RAG as well as construction supervision and commissioning. With the commissioning of storage reservoirs, RAG's available storage volume will increase by 685 million cubic metres of working gas.

Today, natural gas storage facilities are on the one hand used to balance between constant gas supply and fluctuating consumption, on the other hand to safeguard and optimise the supply - two main aspects in the restructuring of energy supply in Europe.
