Russia completely stops gas supply through Nord Stream
On September 2, Russian gas monopoly Gazprom announced a complete halt to all gas supply through the Nord Stream pipeline
Gazprom wrote about this on Telegram.
The company said that during routine work on the Trent 60 gas pumping unit of the Portovaya compressor station, "an oil leak with an admixture of sealing compound was detected on the connectors of the terminal connections of the cable lines of the low and intermediate rotor speed sensors."
Also, oil was found in the area of the cable line in the external terminal box of the automatic control system of the unit. Gazprom claims that the acts of detection of oil leaks were signed by representatives of the Siemens company, who help with maintenance.
"Pending the removal of comments regarding the operation of the equipment, gas transport to the Nord Stream gas pipeline has been completely stopped," the Russian company added.
