TAP STORY, OVVERO DELLA SCEMENZA DEGLI AMBIENTALISTI DI PROVINCIA E DEGLI ARRUFFAPOPOLAZZO LOCALI, NON SOVRANISTHI, DEL PD  - Era il 31 dicembre di un anno fa quando il gas estratto dai giacimenti di Shah Deniz II arrivava per la prima volta al terminale di San Foca (...) sulla costa adriatica del Salento. Dopo una polemica furibonda iniziata molto prima.Erano gli anni dei No Tap (...), gli anni delle inchieste. Come quella (contro) il Ministero dell’Ambiente per il rilascio della Valutazione di impatto ambientale o quella per una presunta truffa (...)  di non seguire le indicazioni di una direttiva per la prevenzione dei grandi rischi.  TUTTA FUFFA PER FAR PERDERE TEMPO, ndr.  Da quel giorno sono 6,5 i miliardi di metri cubi di gas trasportati attraverso il gasdotto (...).  Considerando che il consumo di gas in Italia quest’anno è stato di 70 miliardi di metri cubi si evince che i 7,5 miliardi garantiti dal Tap riguardano circa il 10% del totale.  (...).  L’entrata in esercizio del gasdotto (...) ha annullato il differenziale storico di circa il 10% che l’Italia paga sul prezzo all’ingrosso del gas naturale rispetto agli altri Paesi del Centro e Nord Europa. In alcuni casi (...) lo spread è stato anche invertito nel corso dell’anno. (...) Lo spread favorevole ha reso possibile non solo trasportare 6,5 miliardi di metri cubi di gas in Italia, ma anche esportarlo verso il Nord Europa. Il 9 ottobre (...) l’export ha raggiunto i 13,96 milioni di metri cubi. E gli alberi di ulivo espiantati? Gli 828 ulivi originari, tra cui alcuni monumentali, erano stati custoditi e ora sono tornati al loro posto. Quelli abbattuti perché affetti da Xylella sono stati sostituiti con 930 nuove piante resistenti al batterio. Quelli dell’area di lavoro del microtunnel sono stati i primi ulivi ad essere stati espiantati, nell’aprile del 2017, e sono stati gli ultimi a tornare nella loro posizione originaria. Si sono conservati meglio di tutti perché essendo stati rimossi per primi non sono stati intaccati dalla Xylella. (...) Per ogni arbusto che interferiva con il gasdotto ne sono stati messi a dimora tre.

*MTBM* Micro tunneling is a trenchless construction method in which a borehole is excavated and pipes laid simultaneously using remote guidance, pipe jacking, and continuous support. The micro tunneling boring machine (MTBM) is operated from a control panel, normally located on the surface. Personnel entry is not required for routine operations. Water jetting is used for the cutting head during the boring stage, or an asymmetrical or slanted head and is directed using laser guidance. Only pipes with a circular cross-section can be used because of the boring process. Microtunneling has successfully completed horizontal as well as vertical curves. Horizontal curves allow pipeline projects to follow curved public rights-of-way without too many manholes, and short straight segments. t is effective in soft, unstable, and wet soils and can crush large boulders.

A tunnel boring machine (TBM), via @civilengineeringdiscoveries also known as a "mole", is a machine used to excavate tunnels with a circular cross section through a variety of soil and rock strata. They may also be used for microtunneling. They can borethrough anything from hard rock to sand. Tunnel diameters can range from one metre (3.3 ft) (done with micro-TBMs) to 17.6 metres (58 ft) to date. Tunnels of less than a metre or so in diameter are typically done using trenchless construction methods or horizontal directional drilling rather than TBMs. (at United States) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzS4E7pFCpK/?igshid=345cb2ia2je
