SNTGN “TRANSGAZ” SA Medias Annual Management Report for 2007<br />
Consequently, the elaboration and completion of the maintenance programme focused<br />
on boosting the efficiency of the repair works, on reasonably using the allocated funds<br />
and on correlating with Transgaz’ investment programme.<br />
The deadlines for completion of works, as provided in contracts, were generally<br />
observed. Delays thereto were objectively justified (unfavourable weather conditions,<br />
priority of other works, etc.) without endangering gas transmission capacity, over peak<br />
periods.<br />
The maintenance works were supervised by all Transgaz’ departments involved, in<br />
close co-operation with the contracted constructors and service providers specified in<br />
the maintenance programme.<br />
2.2.3. Investment programme<br />
The scientific and engineering research activity, in the field of gas transmission,<br />
