Nord Stream Lines 1 and 2 on track

Февраля 22, 2011

Construction of the Nord Stream Pipeline continues on track. Over 1,000 kilometres of Line 1 have been laid in the Baltic Sea and pipe-laying works have already been completed at the landfalls for Line 2. The project has received all the necessary permits, and all pipes and construction capacities have been procured.

“Gas deliveries from Line 1 will begin before the end of 2011, and Line 2 will be launched in 2012,” says Matthias Warnig, Managing Director of Nord Stream AG. The construction schedule of both lines is confirmed by all of Nord Stream’s shareholders.
Recent discussions to the contrary of Nord Stream's schedule arose due to concerns about other would-be infrastructure projects.
