Company profile
A gas network managed hour by hour
Transgaz is Romania’s independent transmission-system operator, not a producer or supplier of the gas it moves. It operates the state-owned National Gas Transmission System under concession, balancing and dispatching flows through a network that reached about 14,334 km after Tuzla–Podișor entered service in January 2026. Through its group, it also runs Moldova’s transmission system; it has tested hydrogen blending, while planned hydrogen routes remain conceptual.
Inside the control room
The network is also a pressurised national buffer
Romania’s radial-ring network works at 6–63 bar. Transgaz contracts capacity, meters quality, dispatches flows and balances the system; it operates public-domain assets under concession rather than owning the transmission assets. Dispatchers also watch line pack, the gas already compressed inside the network. Transgaz currently defines 92–95 million standard cubic metres as optimal; below 80 or above 100 million is an alert.

BRUA Phase 1 is live; later corridor capacity is not
The Bulgaria–Romania–Hungary–Austria (BRUA) Phase 1 project, including compressor stations at Jupa, Podișor and Bibești, was completed in 2020. The name describes a bidirectional corridor, not one continuous Transgaz-owned pipe to Austria. At Csanádpalota, Transgaz and Hungary’s gas transmission operator FGSZ agreed an increase in technical capacity to 320,000 m³/h in both directions, effective from 1 April 2026. Further compressor works and the south-to-north Vertical Corridor expansion remain future projects in the 2026–2035 plan.

Black Sea landing route
A 308.3 km onshore line arrived before the offshore gas
Transgaz completed the Tuzla–Podișor line in 2025 and commissioned it on 12 January 2026: 32.4 km from the shore to Amzacea at 12 billion cubic metres a year, then 275.9 km to Podișor at 6 billion cubic metres a year. Neptun Deep is a separate upstream project owned 50/50 by OMV Petrom and Romgaz; first gas is expected in 2027, so commissioning the onshore link does not mean offshore production is already flowing.

Group reach and future options
Moldova is operating; hydrogen remains a test and a plan
Through wholly owned Eurotransgaz, Transgaz holds 75% of Vestmoldtransgaz; the EBRD owns 25%. Since September 2023 that subsidiary has operated, maintained and dispatched Moldova’s transmission system, about 1,670 km at end-2025. Transgaz also formed Transport România Hidrogen and completed the ROHYD blend pilot, but the hydrogen corridors in its 2026–2035 plan remain conceptual or under analysis; this is not a live commercial network.
