The operator of Nord Stream, Nord Stream AG, reported that the emergency on gas pipelines is unprecedented, and it is impossible to estimate the timing of repairs. The work of Nord Stream has been suspended since the end of August due to problems with the repair of Siemens turbines caused by Western sanctions. However, the pipeline remained filled with gas. Nord Stream 2, completed in 2021 but never put into operation, was also already filled with gas.
