Offshore Pipeline from Block 12 to Receiving Terminal in Cyprus  200 km+ pipeline at an estimated cost of US$ 2 billion (approx. €1.5 billion) Receiving Terminal for Domestic Market  Receiving Terminal at Vassilikos Energy Center. Project is adjacent to the construction of the offshore pipeline, Cost to be determined Onshore Distribution Network for Domestic Market  The Gas Network will initially consist of 3 pipelines connecting the Gas Import Hub with the three existing downstream Power Stations.  The estimated cost for “Phase A” of this project is around €65 million. Towards this cost Cyprus has managed to Secure a €10 million grant from EU under the European Economic Program for Recovery (EEPR). The gasification of the Island (Phases “B” and “C” connecting the Receiving Terminal to Industries, Hotels and Households) will be an on- going process and it is expected to cost over €500 million.
