The Eilat Ashkelon Pipeline Company (EAPC) operates several petroleum and petroleum products pipelines in Israel, most notably the Eilat Ashkelon Pipeline. It also operates two oil terminal and depots in the country. The company was originally formed in 1968 as a 50/50% joint venture between Israel and Iran (during the Shah's rule) to transport crude oil from Iran to Europe.〔Bialer, Uri. ''Fuel Bridge across the Middle East—Israel, Iran, and the Eilat-Ashkelon Oil Pipeline.'' In: Israel Studies, Vol 12, No 3 (Fall 2007)〕 After the Iranian Revolution 1979, Israel nationalized the company. In 2015 a Swiss court ordered Israel to pay Iran $1.1 billion compensation, which they refused to pay.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Report: Swiss Court Orders Israel to Pay Iran $1.1 Billion in Oil Pipeline Dispute )〕 The services of EAPC are: transporting crude oil and refined products, long term storage, crude oil blending, processing of liquefied petroleum gas, fuel oil, destillates and gas. ==History== *1956: "Afike Neft" (Crude Oil Channel) founded to transport crude oil from Sinai to Haifa *1957: construction of 3 oil tanks in Eilat, 20 cm (8") Ø pipeline from Eilat to Beer-Sheva, 3 oil tanks in Beer-Sheva, trains transport crude oil to Haifa, later construction of a 40 cm (16") Ø pipeline from Beer-Sheva to Ashdod and transportation by ship to Haifa *1959: construction of a 40 cm (16") Ø pipeline from Eilat to Haifa *1966: construction of the storage facility Ramat Yotam, Eilat, Jetty 1, booster station in Paran *1968: EAPC established, construction of a 106 cm (42") Ø pipeline from Eilat to Ashkelon, terminal and port in Ashkelon *1973: storage in Eilat expanded to 1.1 Mio. m3, in Ashkelon to 1.3 Mio. m3, additional booster station in Yotvata, 45 cm (18") Ø pipeline from Ashkelon to Ashdod *1996: construction of a sea and land terminal for fuel oil in Ashkelon *1998: construction of a modern LPG terminal *1999: joint venture EAPC and PEI, distallates unloaded in Ashkelon und distributed/pumped by PEI (Petroleum and Energy Infrastructures Ltd.) *2000: marine services moved to IEC (Israel Electric Company), coal jetty for Rutenberg Power Station *2002: conversion of storage tanks for destillates, filling station for tanker lorries *2003: reverse flow project finished (Russian oil delivered by tankers to Ashkelon, reloaded onto tankers in Eilat for shipment to Asia) *2004: modern filling plant for LPG cylinders 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eilat Ashkelon Pipeline Company」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
