    RISKY BUSINESS — WHO BENEFITS FROM THE SOUTHERN GAS CORRIDOR? A Bankwatch Report RISKY BUSINESS — WHO BENEFITS FROM THE SOUTHERN GAS CORRIDOR? AUTHORS Lorenzo Bagnoli Claudia Ciobanu Apostolis Fotiadis G. T. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Pippa Gallop Elena Gerebizza Sven Haertig David Hoffman Ido Liven Anna Roggenbuck Regine Richter Xavier Sol EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 8 I WHAT IS THE SOUTHERN GAS CORRIDOR? 16 II GREECE AND TAP 30 III ITALY AND TAP 48 IV TURKEY AND TANAP 66 CONCLUSIONS 78 REFERENCES 82 THE SOUTHERN GAS CORRIDOR ● trans adriatic pipeline [tap] ● ● trans anatolian pipeline [tanap] ● ● south caucasus pipeline extension [scpx] ● an interactive presentation of this report is available at: www.bankwatch.org/risky-business EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Southern Gas Corridor, a 3,500 kilometre system of pipelines meant to bring gas from Azerbaijan into Europe, is the new pet project of the European Union in the energy sector. It is presented as a panacea for all ills: reducing Europe’s reliance on Russian gas, contributing to the move away from coal, and bringing energy and business to the poorer southeastern Europe. It is set to benefit from some of the biggest loans in the history of European public banks. Critics1 of the pipeline argue that forecasts of gas demand in Europe do not justify this pipeline. Relying on authoritarian Azerbaijan (and Turkey) to secure Europe’s energy needs is not much change from depending on Russia but rather a way to strengthen more tyrants. Massive pipeline projects promoted by the EU in the past, such as Baku-Tblisi-Ceyhan, have come with human rights abuses and the militarisation of the route of the pipelines, and that should serve as a warning.
