Liquefied natural gas - Last weld seam on LNG connection pipeline

After nine months of construction, a further connecting pipeline for the LNG terminal in Wilhelmshaven is to be technically completed with a final weld. The last seam is to be welded on Thursday (1.30 p.m.) at a construction site in the Ammerland district, according to the energy supplier EWE. The new pipeline is scheduled to go into operation at the beginning of 2024.

EWE intends to use the approximately 70-kilometer-long pipeline to transport landed liquefied natural gas (LNG ) to its existing natural gas storage facilities near Jemgum in the district of Leer after it has been converted into a gaseous state, thereby contributing to energy security. The pipeline has a capacity of up to six billion cubic meters of natural gas per year. That is enough to supply up to four million households.
