Major Russia-Germany Oil Pipeline Partially Shut After Leak Discovered In Poland

 

CNBC: Leak detected on another Russian pipeline connecting to Europe, but Poland says it looks accidental 

* Polish pipeline operator PERN said Wednesday that a leak detected on one of its Druzhba pipelines bringing oil from Russia to Europe was likely caused by an accident. 

* Mateusz Berger, Poland’s top official in charge of energy infrastructure, told Reuters via telephone that there were no grounds to believe the leak was caused by sabotage. 

* The Druzhba pipeline leak comes just over two weeks after a series of blasts on two subsea gas pipelines connecting Russia to Germany triggered what might be the single largest release of methane in history. 

Polish pipeline operator PERN said Wednesday that a leak detected on one of its Druzhba pipelines bringing oil from Russia to Europe was likely caused by an accident. 

The leak was detected on Tuesday evening on one of the two lines of the Western section of the pipeline, PERN said in a statement. 

The incident occurred roughly 70 kilometers (about 43 miles) from the central Polish city of Plock.
