Nord Stream Munitions Clearance (Underwater)
Nord Stream developed a plan for the removal of munitions to ensure that the pipeline is safe and the effects on the Baltic Sea environment and on marine life are minimal. In this endeavour, the company benefits from the experience of the navies of the Baltic Sea countries, which conduct mine clearing missions in cooperation with The Partnership for Peace, a programme between partner countries and NATO. Through their efforts, over 1,000 mines have been cleared since 1996. About 30 mines have been identified in Russian waters in the security and anchor cooridors of the Nord Stream route that will be cleared by the Russian Baltic Fleet following its standard procedures.
Approximately 35 munitions must be cleared in the Finnish Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), and currently two in the Swedish EEZ. Once Nord Stream receives the necessary permits to begin clearance, the mines will be detonated on site using proven technology. All related activities will be based on an environmental and safety management plan. Clearance operations in Finnish and Swedish waters will be handled by BACTEC International Limited, a UK-based mine clearance company recognised worldwide for its technical expertise and professionalism in the industry.
