GERMANY'S GAS PIPELINE IS KEPT OFF BY RUSSIA'S GAZPROM

 

The energy crisis in Europe has grown worse after the major German pipeline carrying natural gas was temporarily shut down by Russian energy giant Gazprom.

Just hours before it was scheduled to resume delivery, the business announced that urgent maintenance work was required to fix important components.

The Nord Stream 1 pipeline was shut down on Wednesday for what the Russian government-run energy corporation claimed would be three days of repair.

The company claimed in a social media post on Friday night that it had discovered "malfunctions" in a turbine and added that things needed to be fixed in order for the pipeline to function.

The action was the most recent twist in a tale in which Gazprom has pushed technical issues as the justification for decreasing gas deliveries through Nord Stream 1, justifications that German authorities have rejected as a cover for a political power play in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

In order to meet the demand for heating during the winter, European utilities rushed to acquire additional supplies during the summer. They purchased pricey liquified gas that is transported by ship, and other supplies arrived by pipeline from Norway and Azerbaijan.

While concerns over a winter shortage have partially diminished as storage has improved, analysts warn that a complete cutoff may cause significant problems for Europe. Energy policy specialist Simone Tagliapietra stated at the Bruegel think tank in Brussels that the European Union needed to increase efforts to cut gas usage.

A winter without any Russian gas is the most likely scenario for Europe, he warned, because to the ongoing delays from Gazprom. Reduced demand for gas and electricity is the only way to prepare for that.

At the Portovaya compressor station at the Russian end of the pipeline, including the lone operable turbine, Gazprom claimed to have discovered oil leaks from four turbines. It stated that the leaks "do not allow for safe, trouble-free operation of the gas turbine engine," despite warnings from Russia's industrial safety agency.

According to the identified egregious (safety) violations, the corporation stated that "it is required to take suitable steps and suspend further operation of the... gas compressor unit."

Midway through June, Gazprom began reducing its Nord Stream 1 output, blaming the interruptions on the delivery of a turbine that had been sent to Canada for maintenance. Since then, Canada has authorized the turbine's transfer to Germany, which has asserted that only Russia's declaration of a need for the component prevents it from being sent to that country.

THE FLU IN THAILAND after COVID-19 IS DOWNGRADED TO THE SAME CATEGORY AS

 Thailand: In October, when the country's viral situation begins to stabilise, Thailand will declare COVID-19 a "dangerous" infectious disease that "needs monitoring." According to Thailand's health minister, Anutin Charanvirakul, this adjustment will reduce Covid-19's priority from being on par with plague and smallpox to influenza and dengue, reflecting the country's actual health situation. Anutin asserted in a statement that the decision showed how well-prepared Thailand's healthcare system is, how simple it is for individuals to access care, and how responsibly people act when it comes to self-defense. According to him, Thailand would "soon" change its pandemic management strategy so that private hospitals can buy antiviral drugs directly from manufacturers.
