Revelations by Alpha newspaper regarding the terminal construction site in Vasilikos reveal serious deficiencies and arbitrariness. A study by French experts from Technip found that key designs, such as those for health, safety, mechanical equipment, and control systems, are incomplete, with the project approximately 50% finished. Furthermore, the absence of documents certifying risk assessments was discovered, which is essential for the safety of a liquefied natural gas terminal. The Chinese consortium that undertook the project withdrew prematurely, leaving behind significant problems.
