Britain exported "toxic" natural gas to the EU?EU complaint: containing radioactive substances
Author:Red Star News Time:2022.08.09
According to reports, EU Energy Corporation said that the energy company urged London to take an emergency action through the British -processed liquefied natural gas (LNG) containing poisonous "radioactive" pollution substances. It is reported that Europe has fallen into an energy crisis since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. It is reported that in the case of EU countries rushing to fill up energy reserves, Britain has become the "important bridge" for transporting natural gas to the EU countries.
It is understood that Russia's Natural Gas Industry Co., Ltd. has previously announced that due to the problem of sanctions related to turbine, the supply volume of the key "Beixi" channels to Germany will be reduced to about one -fifth of its maximum gas transmission capacity. Analysts predict that as the winter approaches, the price of natural gas will continue to rise, which will exacerbate the inflation pressure faced by the European economy, governments and financial markets.
Natural gas was exported from the UK through the underwater pipeline to the European continent
EU Energy Corporation:
Britain exports the EU natural gas contains "pollution substances"
It is understood that the LNG processed in the UK mainly comes from the United States and Qatar. After processing through the British energy system, natural gas exports natural gas to Belgium and the Netherlands through the underwater pipeline. The report pointed out that because Russia was worried that Russia completely cut off the energy supply to the EU, EU countries were trying to supplement their energy reserves, and Britain became an important "transportation bridge".
However, recently, energy companies including Belgian energy infrastructure giants Fluxys, German European Energy Security Corporation (former Russian Natural Gas Industry Co., Ltd.), and EDFs, such as French public institutions, said that they have said that natural gas shipped from the United Kingdom from the United Kingdom It is contaminated with "radioactive" substances, and these substances will burn after contact with air.
The Interconnector, which is responsible for operating the natural gas pipeline between Britain and Belgium, said in a statement that these natural gas contains "dangerous, toxic, radioactive and flammable" substances. EDF also said that this problem has damaged the efficiency and effectiveness of the British-EU's natural gas market. These energy companies stated that the removal of these "pollutants" has caused at least 270 million pounds (about 2.2 billion yuan) to energy companies. If the situation worsen, it may have to stop working and forces to close the underwater transportation pipeline.

British want to increase transportation volume
Strongly opposed by EU Energy Corporation
It is reported that the British State Grid Corporation has recently proposed to the British energy regulatory agency OFGEM to temporarily increase the maximum transportation volume of transportation from the Dutch pipeline to the European continent. According to the British State Grid Corporation, if the EU's energy storage facilities are not filled in the summer, in winter, the pressure on the transportation of natural gas in the UK will "increase and sustain", which may affect British supply security. According to reports, due to the mature energy storage facilities in the European continent, Britain needs to rely on natural gas flowing back from the European continent to meet the peak energy needs. Therefore, this summer, Britain has been "doing its best" to the EU natural gas.
However, this proposal was opposed by the EU Energy Corporation, and these companies believed that this issue should be discussed after the "pollutant" problem was resolved. Interconnector shocked the British State Grid Corporation's proposal to "increase natural gas exports". The company said that this year's natural gas supply has been contaminated, and even two times leading to pipeline shutdown and maintenance. If the supply of this quality and natural gas will be increased, it will lead to increased risk and further endanger the safety of energy supply in the European Union and the United Kingdom.
People familiar with the energy industry explained that it is a common phenomenon that mixed other substances in the process of natural gas transportation, but since April this year, the "other substances" in natural gas have reached the "unprecedented" number. However, the British State Grid Corporation stated that the "existence of impurities" in the British natural gas transmission system is a "historic known problem" and pointed out that "in view of the important role of Britain in supporting the EU's natural gas supply, related natural gas companies should conduct more than more natural gas companies should conduct more. Facilities maintenance work, such as replacing filters to filter harmful substances, etc. ".
