    ARG TO BUILD KAJARAN-ARARAT GAS PIPELINE

    ARMENPRESS
    May 31 2007

    YEREVAN, MAY 31, ARMENPRESS: The joint Russian-Armenian Armrosgazprom
    (ARG) natural gas operator will spend 33 billion Armenian Drams this
    year on construction of a new gas pipeline that will stretch from the
    town of Kajaran in the southern province of Syunik to the province
    of Ararat through the towns of Sisian and Jermuk.

    The pipeline will bring Iranian gas to thermal power stations in
    central Armenia.

    The overall cost of this project is estimated at about 52 billion
    Drams. The new pipeline will have 720 mm diameter and will stretch
    197 km.

    Shushan Sardarian, a spokeswoman for ARG, said ARG chairman Karen
    Karapetian traveled lately across the pipeline's route to see the
    pace of the work on the ground.

    The construction is commissioned by the ARG and is being carried out
    by its Transgazshin firm and five other sub-contractors.
