Both strings of the pipeline will soon be filled with process gas and it can be launched, but without certification this is impossible.
Russia expects Nord Stream 2 certification to be completed by mid-2022. This opinion was expressed by the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak in an interview with the TV channel Russia 24.

“In the summer, an application for certification was submitted. This is a rather lengthy process, although it can be shorter if desired. But, nevertheless, if we talk about those regulations that have been adopted in Europe, this is a rather lengthy process. And we hope that in It will be completed in 2022 by about the middle of the year, “he said.
The Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation noted that the gas pipeline will soon be ready for launch.
“In the near future it will already be completed (process gas filling). And it will be fully prepared so that from the moment decisions are made the next day, gas will go to European consumers, “says Novak.
According to him, SP-2 could have been put into operation a long time ago, which would have reduced gas prices.
“The companies that participated in investments in this infrastructure could, among other things, receive gas for European consumers through this infrastructure. There is also politicization around this project. It would have been working for a long time if there were no big politics around this project and confrontation, “the Russian Deputy Prime Minister said.
