Nord Stream 2 warns of potential delay

摘要

Russian state-controlled Gazprom’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline could be delayed if Danish energy agency DEA does not issue a permit for construction in Denmark’s waters, the project’s developer says. “A delay of several months could lead to additional costs of several hundred million euros… depending on the timing of the permit decision,” the developer says. European consumers would have to pay a premium of about €20mn/d ($22.4mn/d) for more expensive LNG, it adds.
