Eastbound gas flows via the Yamal-Europe pipeline to Poland from Germany fell on Friday morning, data from pipeline operator Gascade showed.

Exit flows at the Mallnow metering point on the German border of the Yamal pipeline were at 897,051 kilowatt hours (kWh) per hour between 0700 CET and 0800 CET, versus 1.382 million kWh/h between 0500 and 0600 CET, the data showed.

Nominations for Russian gas into Slovakia from Ukraine via the Velke Kapusany border point stood at 36.7 million cubic metres (mcm), unchanged from the previous day, Ukrainian transmission system data showed.

Russia’s Gazprom said it continued to ship gas to Europe via Ukraine at 42.4 mcm on Friday.

Gas flows via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, which crosses the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany, remained at zero.

The pipeline, which had been offline for maintenance, was then damaged by explosions.
