The Russian energy company has announced that it will reduce its current supply of gas to Germany by 20% due to the shutdown of a turbine.
Russian gas giant Gazprom has a new reduction from 40% to 20% of gas deliveries from the Nord Stream 1 pipeline from Wednesday, July 27.
The energy company has announced that is reduced to 33 million cubic meters per day the current gas supply to Germany due to the shutdown of a turbine due to its technical condition.
Russia currently supplies only 40% of its usual gas pending the return of one of its Siemens turbines, which was blocked in Canada by sanctions from the Russian military campaign in Ukraine and is currently on its way back.
The process was hampered by Gazprom’s demands, which state that the documentation provided by Canada and Germany does not remove the risks associated with sanctions and “raises additional questions”, especially those related to the future repair of other turbines.
In mid-June, Gazprom reduced its gas supply capacity by 33% to 67 million cubic meters per day, also due to the need to shut down a turbine for repairs, and in July it stopped pumping for “scheduled maintenance work”.
After a 10-day hiatus ending July 21, Nord Stream started at 40% capacity, which means will be halved from Wednesday.
