Abstract INTEGRAL Galactic bulge monitoring (see ATel #438) observations performed between UT 2013 September 3 20:43 and September 4 00:25 clearly reveal the newly detected neutron star X-ray transient Swift J1734.5-3027 (ATel #5354, GCN #15157, #15172). The JEM-X and IBIS/ISGRI flux averages during the observations are 14+/-3 mCrab (3-10 keV), 19+/-6 mCrab (10-25 keV), 23+/-2 mCrab (18-40 keV), and 17+/-2 mCrab (40-100 keV).
