Tariff setting and regulation of access to gas networks and LNG terminals

With the liberalisation of European gas markets, the operation of infrastructures (LNG terminals, storage facilities) and networks (transmission and distribution) has been separated into distinct, regulated activities under the supervision of national authorities.

Many other regions—including Africa, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Gulf countries—are now implementing similar reforms inspired by the European model.

These are laws that determine the tariffs for using gas networks: https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/codes/section_lc/LEGITEXT000023983208/LEGISCTA000023987114/
