OSLO, Oct 8 — A subsea gas pipeline connecting Finland and Estonia was shut early today after an unusual drop in pressure probably caused by a leak, Finnish gas system company Gasgrid and Estonian operator Elering said.“I do not want to speculate at all on the cause of the leak,” senior Gasgrid executive Janne Gronlund told Reuters.
In 2022, the larger Nord Stream gas pipelines under the Baltic Sea between Russia and Germany were damaged by explosions that authorities have said were deliberate acts of sabotage. Today’s drop in pressure was registered just before 2am local time by Gasgrid in Finland and Estonian gas transmission system operator Elering, the Finnish company said.
The pipeline, which can export in either direction depending on where demand is greatest, was transporting a volume of around 30 gigawatt hours of gas per day from Finland to Estonia at the time of the incident, Gronlund said.Advertisement
