The proposed EastMed natural gas pipeline has the highest estimated costs of any gas pipeline in the European Union. The pipeline, which would see gas reservoirs in Israel and Cyprus connected to Greece, comes with estimated costs of six billion euros for the two EU countries involved. By comparison, the Gustorzyn-Wronów gas pipeline is the most costly currently under construction.
