On October 8, 2012, just 30 months after the start of construction, both lines of Nord Stream's twin pipeline system came on-stream. This occasion was celebrated at an event held in Portovaya Bay, Russia, near the starting point of the pipelines at the Baltic Coast. In a video message shown for the occasion, Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany said: “Nord Stream has strikingly shown that the state and the private sector can form a constructive and productive unit across several national borders. We can be proud of this truly European collaboration.”
