Gastransport Nord GmbH (GTG) was founded in 2012 as a wholly owned subsidiary of EWE AG. Our task: to operate and market 320 kilometres of high-pressure pipelines of the gas transmission network in the northwest of Lower Saxony. In this supply ring between East Frisia and Bremen we transport gas produced or imported in Germany to the connected network operators, storage facilities and large consumers. This makes us an important partner for security of supply in the area.
Around 50 employees take on this important task from the head office in Oldenburg. In our dispatching department, we control the grid and our stations and facilities in the grid area around the clock. As an independent transmission system operator, we offer non-discriminatory access for all transmission customers. This means that anyone who wants to transport gas to our connection customers can use our network on equal terms. We take over the gas at the entry points and bring it to the transfer points at the destination – safely and reliably.
