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

Exit flows at the Mallnow metering point on the German border of the Yamal pipeline were at 2,619,076 kilowatt hours (kWh) per hour between 0800 CET and 0900 CET, down from 5,437,680 kWh/h earlier this morning, 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), little changed from the previous day, Ukrainian transmission system data showed.

Russia’s Gazprom said that it would ship 42.4 mcm of gas to Europe via Ukraine on Tuesday, in line with volumes over recent days.

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

The pipeline has not reopened since shutting on Aug. 31 for what was supposed to be three days of maintenance.

Moscow has blamed the shutdown on Western sanctions and technical issues. The pipeline has also been damaged by suspected sabotage since.
