US sanctions and cod spawning: Russia is prevented from completing Nord Stream 2

Russia is still unable to resume construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline for one, but very important reason - cod spawning is taking place at the site of the pipeline. The Danish government has banned all work in the area of ​​Bornholm Island, the ban will remain in effect until the end of August.

So far, nothing is happening at the bottom of the Baltic Sea near the island of Bornholm. In July and August, cod spawns in these waters, all work is prohibited for environmental reasons

- write the German media.

It is reported that the resumption of work is possible in September, then nothing will interfere with the completion of the gas pipeline. The Akademik Chersky vessel and the Fortuna barge are ready to start laying pipes.

Meanwhile, it became known that the head of the US Department of State Mike Pompeo visited Copenhagen last week. There is no official information on the reasons for the visit, but according to unofficial information, Pompeo came to discuss the construction of the Russian gas pipeline with the Danish authorities.

Against this background, it is reported that the US is increasing pressure on European contractors involved in the construction of the pipeline. According to German media, 12 American officials from three ministries (the US Department of State, the Ministry of Finance and the US Department of Energy) are conducting "explanatory conversations" with representatives of the firms involved in the project, during which they hint at negative consequences for them due to participation in the construction. " Nord Stream-2 ". Earlier, the US House of Representatives tightened sanctions against the gas pipeline.

In turn, Germany spoke out against the US sanctions pressure. According to Klaus Ernst, Chairman of the Bundestag Committee on Economics and Energy, the US sanctions pressure on the participants of the Nord Stream 2 project violates the sovereignty of Europe and, in particular, Germany.

As before, I am amazed at the actions of the US government. I regard this as a direct attack on German and European sovereignty

- he said.

However, according to Ernst, so far nothing is known about Berlin's retaliatory measures against Washington, although more and more German politicians are advocating "a tougher response."

By the way, cod spawning takes place in February-April, and in July-September.

Atlantic cod breeds off the coast of Norway and fattens in the Barents Sea and in the shallow waters off Svalbard. The main spawning grounds for this cod are in the Lofoten Islands (Norway). Spawning takes place in March - April at a depth of 100 m, on the border of the warm waters of the Atlantic and colder waters of the fjords. The fertilized eggs are picked up by the current, which carries them northward.

But maybe this is some kind of exclusive "special edition" Atlantic cod (lat. Gadus Morhua)?

Or( purely as a guess ) the fish was in quarantine, and therefore had to spawn later

[stas Sv]

I like the way you think

[Undecim]

Atlantic cod has a bimodal breeding cycle of spring (April-July) and winter (October-February) subpopulations.

[Tavi]

and in September, the orcas will start mating games, or the herring will go into hibernation (it will not be possible to make noise)

The behavior of all of them is quite understandable, in accordance with the hostile attitude towards Russia. But ours could not even imagine? From the category ---It never happened! And here it is again!

About cod - this is every year, everyone knew, everything is available ... Pompeo is not here in any way ... Everything is spoken and negotiated ... April 2021, but the land plot is a big question (the Germans will not dare against sanctions, IMHO)
Another question is that we are not burning either: there is no price, no demand, too, the lohlyatskie beggars have to pay for another three years (before the contract is reduced to 15 billion cubic meters). But with Azerbaijan it is wise - you don’t need to push your gas across my father, don’t ...

[Pravodel]

After the cod, the flounder, then the lamprey, then the eels, then the pike from the island of Madagascar will begin, and when it spawns, the sharks of the southern seas will come: they forgot their spawning grounds, so we decided to try to breed in the Baltic, maybe it will be better here on the Norwegian coast ... In the end, everything can be blamed on the Icelandic herring, of which there are many near Iceland, but not in the Baltic, everything was transferred because of the damned pipeline, it is urgent to multiply ...

Spawning of some Kamchatka crab, or the mating season of some California whales will begin. No matter how far away, the main reason is. And in our time, any reason is already invented, even the most absurd. And nothing rolls. Everyone in the west pretends to be smart, like it should be.

It's okay, the cod is not the kind of gemmorhoi that awaits Russia for the construction of a gas pipeline in the future. The partners will lay their bones in order to sell their, democratic, LPG!

Calmly, calmly ... You just have to bend your line ... Yes, our gas is not quite OUR, BUT - smoothly and without hysterics to finish building our unit ... Yes, it is difficult for the Germans - none of them will climb under sanctions, BUT if it is cold winter (as a meteorologist (almost, by air, hello to Anna Pallna, 500 hours of lectures) - there will be a cold winter - everything will be adjusted (it was already) and we will start up SP-2, although this will not add to the volume of pumping (wrote already), well, max 15-25 billion cubic meters max We are waiting for China and the Power of Siberia-1 at least up to 30-40 ...

In my opinion, SP-2 will not be completed this year either. In a couple of years, maybe.

[Roman123567]

These are more or less adequate forecasts.
Then the truth is still somehow have to certify it ..
In general, gas through it will someday be obliged ... but I think, not in the next three years ..

[Maalkavianin]

By and large, the common man does not care about this stream. The only bad thing is that the lost profit will be given to Gazprom from the budget, according to some clever schemes. The state will not drown its wealth. And they will raise taxes and introduce new ones. And on TV they will show the next parade and a ship / tank / rocket / diaper that has no analogues in the world (underline the necessary).

The cod will spawn and finish the construction, otherwise the Poles from Norway will torture the pipe along the bottom.

And then the Poles from Norway will torture the pipe along the bottom to drag

They are now collecting their "circus" signatures against Baltic Pipe - Danish edition Berlingske- "A group of activists put forward a civil initiative, demanding to annul the decision to build the Baltic Pipe. If they manage to collect 50 thousand signatures in six months, the parliament will have to consider this proposal."

[tralflot1832]

Yes, the Norgs themselves have oil problems with gas. They sleep and see when the sanctions will be lifted. To develop the northern fields in the sea with us. The Chinese are not asleep. Two drilling floating platforms are being dragged to us. A holy place is never empty.

[Brturin]

Quote: tralflot1832

The Chinese do not sleep two drilling floating platforms

So it seems so far they are going to the Kara Sea, although the Norwegians were already fussing that they might be left without oil and gas reserves from cross-border fields if Russia starts developing them .. although at current prices ... we will see ...

Quote: tralflot1832

the Norgs themselves have problems with oil gas

the question is, what are the Poles going to fill their gas pipeline with ... will they reach full capacity ...

[tralflot1832]

Poles let the Ukrainians ask what napolnat.I have an idea but will not miss the VO.

[tralflot1832]

Geological exploration drilling yielded a negative result. In the area that the Norgam departed. It seems to be more to the north, but even the Norgs have no money for this business. So for 10 years of negotiations, Norgi received only cod and perch. According to my information, Kirsanovka (Kirkenes) is already half our city. You have a sound judgment on this issue. And then all the scammers got it. All the Barentsukhe and the Norwegian Sea is traveled far and wide. By me. In 79 Norgi for vodka in your zone, do whatever you want, just do not be impudent. Norgi got to that asked when you will lift the trawl, "call" we will come up with an inspection.

[rotmistr60]

Last week, the head of the US Department of State Mike Pompeo visited Copenhagen

It is clear that the main topic of the conversation was the construction of SP-2 in the Danish economic zone. Denmark resisted the construction as best it could, but in the end was forced to give permission. And after the visit of the main fighter against "Russian interference" and the Chinese Communist Party, the cod finally spawned. I wonder who (what) will "spawn" in September-October? Frankly speaking, the sluggish and extremely thin verbal reaction of Germany and the silence of representatives of other countries participating in the construction are outraged. It’s not a matter of fact, but dependence on US policy is obvious.

[Courier]

Quarrels with the USA over the pipe. Are you seriously?

JV 2 will not be laid until November 3. Before the US presidential election.
There will be bargaining with the new President.
An agreement will turn out, they will finish building their own joint venture 2.

[APASUS]

If you seriously look at this issue, then you can find quite good reasons for stopping the laying of the gas pipeline. After spawning, NATO fleet exercises will begin, then the rise of chemical weapons ammunition, etc., etc.

These Danes hesitated!

It was not the Danes who hesitated, but the rams in the analytical department of Gazprom, who cannot add 2 + 2. Or was it a deliberate choice, counting on continued sabotage, when they did not bypass Danish waters?

[Pavel57]

Yes, an extra hundred kilometers. past Denmark would have paid off long ago.

[Andylw]

It's your own fault. Have tightened. It was necessary initially to insure against sanctions, last year to drive Chersky and get permission from the Danes for him too.
In general, of course, this sp2 political project is deeply unprofitable for Gazprom and Russia. But beneficial to Europe.

[sg7s]

Everything is more complicated ... There is SP-1. Let's say (conditionally, conditionally) sp-2 - the volume will not increase by much (it’s not that simple with EWGAL) ... BUT - potentially cheap Russian gas WILL BE from burgers (reliable and practical), many friends in Germany, they just take calculator and count, "butting" america-russia - after ...

I, a little, know about the spawning of freshwater fish, pike, for example, in the grass, and during the flood, what pikes did I get my hands on, and what cod spawns along the gas pipeline? Ichthyologists, not British, where are you?

[viktor_ui]

Then the spawning of the wave will be announced ... I can not even imagine that the Danes or the Norgi would be so worried about the USSR. There is a growing confidence that this year the end of the case will not get off the ground. For Gazpromchik is not a national property, but a private offshore office under the jurisdiction of foreign partners. The Americans before this RUSAL bent in different poses, and now these ... shamefully and rotten and at the level of bananastan.
