Russian gas supplies via the Black Sea’s TurkStream pipeline to Europe have been slowly restarting as planned maintenance nears an end, data from European gas transmission group Entsog showed on Monday.

Bulgarian gas pipeline network operator Bulgartransgaz said TurkStream’s receiving terminals and the Russkaya measuring station in Russia were undergoing planned maintenance from June 10 to June 17.

Russian state-owned gas exporter Gazprom did not reply to a request for comment.

According to Entsog, Russian gas supplies via the European leg of TurkStream averaged around 46 million cubic metres per day on June 1-9.

TurkStream remains the only pipeline carrying Russian gas to Europe after blasts stopped exports via the Nord Stream 1 pipelines in September 2022 and as transit via Ukraine was halted on January 1.
