The first of all steps to build an offshore pipeline is to conduct extensive surveys of the seabed. Find out more about the high tech surveys of the Baltic Sea: bit.ly/31Vk9Mo

Find out more on how the concrete weight coated pipes find their way from the production site to the seabed. bit.ly/2zBSINZ

In the Bay of Greifswald, two pipeline ends were connected on pipelay vessel Castoro 10 in a procedure known as Above-Water Tie-In. Find out more about the highly complex welding process: bit.ly/2pWUrJt

To build the Nord Stream 2 twin pipeline system from Russia to Germany around 200,000 pipes are required along the 1,230 km long route

The last pipes left Finland on their way to the seabed of the Baltic Sea

More than 1,000 companies from 25 different countries are involved in the construction of the Nord Stream 2 Pipeline, such as Europipe in Mühlheim, Germany, where much of the pipe was produced: bit.ly/31n9GbX

The Bovanenkovo gas field on the Yamal Peninsula is one of Russia’s biggest natural gas production plants and a source of gas for the Nord Stream 2 Pipeline.

Before the Nord Stream 2 Pipeline makes landfall in Germany, the pipeline is buried in trenches in the Bay of Greifswald. Two 700-m microtunnels make the transition from the underwater section to the landfall. bit.ly/2OHqau0

After over 2 years of pipe production and processing, all Nord Stream 2 pipe coating activities have been completed. A big thank you to everyone involved in coating the amount of steel equivalent to 500 Eiffel Towers with concrete!

Clean rock material is placed before and after pipelay at dedicated locations along the route to guarantee stability in uneven seabed conditions, provide additional support at crossings with other infrastructure and to mitigate freespans

When surveying the seabed, we came across everything from shipwrecks to washing machines. Any time we discover a potential artefact, we work together with the relevant authorities. Get the full story here: bit.ly/2YKML8W

Thorough surveys are the cornerstone of offshore infrastructure projects. Nord Stream 2 spent years researching environmental conditions before pipeline construction began. Learn more here (and find out many other things): bit.ly/2ZDjT3C

A special view – Nord Stream 2 pipelay from the Pioneering Spirit.

Already discovered during surveys for Nord Stream in 2009, a 500 year old and overwhelmingly well preserved ship wreck was researched extensively during surveys for the Nord Stream 2 Pipeline. nytimes.com/2019/07/22/scien…
