Images of Baumgarten interconnection point in Lower Austria, one of the largest gas hubs in Europe. Close to the Slovak-Austrian border, around 50 km east from Vienna, the facility mainly receives Russian imports, but also takes shipments from Norway and some other countries. These supplies are re-routed to consumption centers in Austria and in Europe via a number of pipeline systems running in various directions. The Baumgarten hub consists of gas reception, metering and testing facilities. The machinery is operated by Trans Austria Gas Pipeline and Gas Connect Austria.
