The purpose of the memorandum is to define the cooperation in establishing a connection between the gas-supply systems of both countries. The memorandum provides that the two ministries will do everything in their power to enable both transmission system operators to construct the gas pipelines and the appertaining infrastructure, with a capacity of 50,000 m3/h in both directions (0.44 billion cubic metres per year) and an envisaged operating pressure of 45 bar at the interconnection point.

In addition, the ministries will strive for both governments to sign a solidarity gas supply agreement as soon as possible, or when an interconnection point is set up between the two gas supply systems.

The ministries will promote further collaboration between the two transmission system operators.

This political memorandum does not create any rights or obligations under the domestic or international law, and it is not concluded in order to change the current obligations between the two signatories.

The memorandum was signed by the Slovenian Minister of the Environment, Climate and Energy, Bojan Kumer, and the Hungarian Minister of the Foreign Affairs and Trade, Péter Szijjártó.
