Denmark allows Nord Stream 2 to operate offshore

The DEA (Danish Energy Agency) has granted a permit to Nord Stream 2 AG to operate a section of the Nord Stream 2 pipelines. Denmark has attached a number of conditions to the permit to ensure a safe operation of the pipelines. Nord Stream 2 AG applied for the permit in November 2019. The project includes the construction of two pipeline strings with a total annual capacity of 55 bln cubic meters from Russian coast through the Baltic Sea to Germany. To date, 93.5% of Nord Stream 2 has been finished.
