"Beixi-1" restarted the gas supply of Europe, and the gas transmission was low. Putin: Europe's blame by himself

[Global Times reporter Li Linjia Global Times Special reporter Liu Yupeng] Germany has been worried about the stoppage in the past few weeks. On the 21st, after the routine technology maintenance, the "Beixi-1" natural gas pipeline stopped 10 days later was restarted. Due to the influence of turbine maintenance, the gas transmission volume remains low. On the 20th, the European Commission suggested that member states reduced the consumption of natural gas by 15%to cope with difficult winter. Russian President Putin said that the European energy crisis is a blame.

According to the Russian News Agency reported on the 21st, data released by German natural gas pipeline operators Opal and Nel show that from 7 am on the same day of Moscow, the "Beixi-1" pipeline resumed natural gas to European countries such as Germany. A spokesman for Beixi Co., Ltd. confirmed to the media that after the 10-day pipeline routine maintenance work, the "Beixi-1" natural gas pipeline has resumed gas supply on the morning. At present, the amount of natural gas transportation is equivalent to before the routine maintenance. About 67 million cubic meters can be transported every day. The spokesman said it would take a certain amount of time to return to normal natural gas transportation. A spokesman for the Federal Network Bureau of the German Energy Regulatory Agency said on the same day that on the first day of restoration of gas supply, the daily conveying volume was about 40%of the maximum conveying volume. Mueller, director of the Federal Network Bureau, said the conveying volume was higher than the previous 30%expectations.

The gas transmission volume of the "Beixi-1" pipeline accounts for more than 1/3 of Russia's export of natural gas to the EU. The pipeline stopped confession on July 11 for a 10 -day annual maintenance work. Before the beginning of this annual maintenance, the Russian Natural Gas Industry Co., Ltd. has reduced the gas supply of the "Beixi-1" pipeline to about 40%in mid-June. The turbine has delays due to sanctions. Russia's "Viewpoint" states that the expected turbine is expected to be delivered to Russia on the 24th, but the turbine cannot be put into use immediately. It still needs to be installed and debugged. It is expected to be re -used at the end of July or early August. In addition, Putin warned on the 20th that another turbine of the "Beixi-1" pipeline will be repaired on the 26th. If the turbine is stranded in Canada, the volume of vitality in Europe may drop to 20%.

Faced with Russia's risks to further reduce the supply of natural gas supply in Europe, the European Union is urgently formulated a plan to respond to the gas supply crisis. Bloomberg reported on the 19th that EU diplomats reported that the European Commission plans to propose a "gas -saving" plan to guide member states to cut to up to 15%of gas consumption based on the principle of "voluntary" to deal with the possible shortage of natural gas supply this winter. On the 20th, the polls of the German investigation agency of Germany said that 65%of the Germans intended to reduce family heating this winter, thereby reducing energy consumption. The Greek emergency department said on the 21st that Greece will improve coal -fired power generation capacity. If Russia's natural gas supply is interrupted, consumers will be required to save electricity. However, the EU's "gas -saving" proposal was opposed by many EU countries including Spain, and Spain Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Ecological Transformation, Ribella, said on the 20th that the plan "neither fair nor valid" may be As a result, the Spanish industry "seriously lost its competitiveness."

Regarding Europe, the natural gas crisis was blame to Russia, Putin stated at a press conference after the talks of leaders of Russia, Iran, and Turkey on the 19th that Russia has been fulfilling its energy supply obligations. The errors in energy policy are attributed to Russia and Russia. Putin also said that in European countries with non -traditional green energy such as solar energy and wind energy, if you encounter a "winter where long and no wind is not yet wind", "it's over." Europe) Close everything by hand, and then try to find someone to carry a pot. If they don't consider their current situation, it is so tragic that this is even funny. "
