A natural gas leak has been detected from a section of the Russia-to-Germany Nord Stream 2 pipeline in Danish waters, Danish authorities said Monday.

“A leak has occurred today on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline in the Danish area,” said the Danish Energy Agency.

A no-go zone of 5 nautical miles has been established around the pipeline south of the Danish island of Bornholm. Baltic maritime agencies are currently coordinating, with the undersea leak being pegged to a likely depth of 60 meters to 70 meters.

“The leakage is dangerous,” reads a mariners’ warning from the Danish Maritime Authority. “Navigation is prohibited.”

That's a good link/article (thanks).
Nord Stream 2, which is not in operation, was nonetheless filled with 117 million cubic meters of natural gas — worth €213 million at current prices — to bring pipeline pressure up to 300 bar in anticipation of being allowed to flow.
I wonder who is now €213 million out of pocket?
