Everything clean – Nord Stream leaks: No more visible gas leaks

Date:

After the explosions on the Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea, no escaping gas can be seen on the water surface. During overflights on Thursday and Friday, the gas leak in Sweden’s exclusive economic zone was no longer visible.

The Swedish Coast Guard last spoke on Wednesday that Nord Stream 2’s remaining outlet would still hit an area about 10 meters wide.

At the end of September, explosions tore several holes in the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea. After the blasts, large amounts of gas escaped from several leaks in the two pipelines for days. The leaks were located in international waters in the economic zones of Denmark and Sweden. Suspicion of sabotage is in the room, the German federal prosecutor’s office is investigating. Moscow denies being behind the leaks.
