Vygon Consulting Research Director Maria Belova calculated the benefits that the Russian export gas pipeline “Northern Stream-2” will bring until the end of 2021, and the volume of fuel that he can deliver. Its rating leads RIA Novosti.
In the opinion of Belana, until the end of the year on the “Northern Stream-2” will be able to put 4-5 billion cubic meters of gas to Europe, which is comparable to the capacity of the largest underground storage “Gazprom” on the continent.
Counts are correct provided that the input of the gas pipeline will be commissioned on time and will not be arrested again. Initially, he had to happen at the end of 2019, but it was repeatedly transferred due to opposition from the United States and sanctions against the participants in the pipeline construction.
Also Belova noted that the supply of “Northern Flow-2” will be important, since at the moment due to failure in supplying after the accident at the plant “Gazprom” structure in the new Urengoy company has to choose gas from European storage facilities for compliance with obligations to buyers.
The main repositors of Gazprom in Europe are now filled with 18 percent, on average for the European Union This indicator is 61.8 percent.
