NS2 Line B Capable of Supply to EU if Checked and Approved

NATURAL GAS

Nord Stream 2, Line B is ready to send gas to Europe if it can get regulatory approval and if the link’s integrity is confirmed according to a statement from Gazprom.

  • Gazprom is reducing pressure in the second line of Nord Stream 2 and withdrawing gas before an investigation for potential damage
  • Line B of Nord Stream 2 is the only one of Nord Stream's four lines still potentially capable of working following damage last week. The pipeline has an annual capacity of 27.5bcm.
