Gazprom further reduces gas flow through Nord Stream pipeline to 20%

Date:

The Russian energy company claims that this reduction in supply to Germany is due to the shutdown of a turbine, but the European Union believes it is due to political reasons related to the war in Ukraine and sanctions.

The Russian gas giant Gazprom this Wednesday proceeded to the creation of a new reduction, now up to 20%, of the gas deliveries from the Nord Stream 1. The Russian energy company argues that this reduction in the supply to Germany comes from the shutdown of a turbinebut the European Union believes that this is due to: political reasons related to the war in Ukraine and sanctions.

In this regard, Gazprom announced this week that it reduce to 33 million cubic meters per day the supply of gas to Germany due to the shutdown of a turbine due to its technical condition. So far, Russia has supplied only 40% of its usual gas, pending the return of one of its Siemens turbines, which had been blocked in Canada due to sanctions from Russia’s military campaign in Ukraine and is on its way back.

The whole process has been hampered by demands from Gazprom, which say the documentation provided by Canada and Germany does not eliminate the risks associated with sanctions and “raises additional questions”; especially those relating 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 on July 21, Nord Stream began operating at 40% capacity, which means has been halved.
