Nord Stream Operator Confirms Maintenance

NATURAL GAS

Both lines of the Nord Stream gas pipeline will be shut down for annual scheduled maintenance from July 11 to 21 according to the operator today.

  • "From 11 to 21 July 2022, Nord Stream AG will temporarily shut down both lines of its gas pipeline system for routine maintenance works inclusive testing of mechanical elements and automation systems for ensuring reliable, safe, and efficient pipeline operations," the statement said.
