Gas transmission via Nord Stream Pipeline resumed after completion of planned annual maintenance works


All planned annual maintenance works on the gas pipelines have been completed on time.

Nord Stream AG has successfully completed all planned maintenance works on its twin gas pipelines within the scheduled period. Gas transmission resumed on 21 July 2022.

The schedule for the maintenance activities has been closely coordinated with Nord Stream’s upstream and downstream partners. Maintenance information was appropriately disclosed in compliance with Regulation (EU) Nr.1227/2011 (Regulation on Wholesale Energy Market Integrity and Transparency — REMIT).

Nord Stream AG, the operator of the twin offshore gas pipelines “Nord Stream”, is a joint venture of Gazprom, Wintershall Dea, E.ON, Gasunie and Engie groups.

Nord Stream’s natural gas pipelines run in parallel through the Baltic Sea for 1,224 kilometres from Portovaya Bay, near Vyborg on the Russian coast, to Lubmin, Germany. They are the shortest connection between the vast Russian natural gas reserves and the energy markets of the European Union.

The Nord Stream Pipeline was constructed following the most stringent industry standards and environmental requirements for offshore pipelines. Safety and reliability take the highest priority for operation and maintenance.

In 2021, the Nord Stream Pipeline transported 59.2 bcm of Russian natural gas to European consumers. More than 465 bcm of natural gas have been delivered through Nord Stream since its launch in 2011.
