Basic information
Public Enterprise for transportation of crude oil through oil pipelines and transportation of petroleum products through petroleum product pipelines – JP „TRANSNAFTA“ (hereinafter called Enterprise), with its headquarters in Pančevo, Zmaj Jovina Str. 1, was founded by the Government of Serbia Decision (“Official Journal of RS” No. 60/2005 and 83/2005). The Decision came into effect on 1st October 2005, when the Enterprise has started transporting oil through oil pipelines, a business activity that was formerly performed by Public Enterprise “Oil Industry of Serbia” (PE NIS), registered for exploration, production, refining and distribution of oil and natural gas, which ceased to exist. The license for transportation of crude oil through oil pipelines was obtained from the Energy Agency of RS in 2006. Transportation of petroleum products through petroleum product pipelines is not yet actualized, because of no adequate infrastructure constructed.
JP „TRANSNAFTA“ is managing the eastern leg of the former Yugoslav Oil Pipeline (started-up in 1979), from the River Danube on the border with Republic of Croatia to Pančevo, in the total length of 154,4 km. The related infrastructure is consisted of terminal in Novi Sad with four storage tanks for crude oil, each of 10.000 m3, distribution center and pumping station, as well as metering station in Pančevo and eight block stations along the oil pipeline route.
