FRANKFURT (Reuters) – A German regulator’s decision to suspend licensing of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline could delay commissioning of the infrastructure to March 2022, government sources told Reuters.
“I expect that the start of Nord Stream 2 could be delayed until March 2022,” a government source said on Wednesday.
The source cited the need for Russia’s Gazprom to create a limited liability company under German law, adding that Gazprom had flagged it would start doing so.
