LONDON — Nord Stream's natural gas pipeline from Russia to Germany is flowing at less than a third of its capacity.
Nord Stream is supplying at a rate of 1 million cubic meters an hour, finance director Paul Corcoran said Wednesday at the European Autumn Gas Conference in Paris.
"The nominations happen daily and hourly," Corcoran said. "It's perfectly normal that the volume changes depending on the nominations coming from the customer." It may be a year to six months before line one of the link reaches its full capacity of 27.5 bcm of gas a year, he said. It began commercial flows on Nov. 8.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
