“If there is a political request and an opportunity under the sanctions regime, we will carry out maintenance of turbines in the usual high quality standards, if we are asked to do so,” RIA Novosti reported.

On June 9, Russian gas supplies via Nord Stream were reduced due to planned technical work.

According to Gazprom, the supply volumes were limited due to the untimely return of the equipment by Siemens after repair.

The media also reported that Canada sent a Siemens turbine for Nord Stream by plane to Germany on July 17, it should arrive in Russia by July 24.

Gazprom reported that it had not received documents from Siemens on the return of a gas turbine engine for Nord Stream.
