From the Russian Black Sea port of Anapa, through the Bulgarian Black Sea port of Varna - i.e. 900 km of pipeline running along the bottom of the sea. The South Stream route (the blue line on the map) is about to be started now. From Varna, the Russian gas will travel across Serbia, Hungary and Slovenia, until it reaches its final destination, Italy. The project is worth billions of euros and is mainly owned and managed by the giant Russian state company Gazprom. It's planned to be complete by the end of 2015. It'll be transporting 63 billion m3 of gas from the Russian gas fields to the end markets in Europe.
