Relief of a natural gas pipeline near Horrem (Kerpen)

Status 01/07/2024, 3 p.m.: This morning, repair work on a Thyssengas GmbH natural gas pipeline near Horrem (Kerpen) made it necessary to relieve the pressure.

The affected pipe section was shut off and the gas in the pipe was blown out in a controlled manner. This was temporarily associated with corresponding noise.

The gas supply to the region is still guaranteed at the present time.

Thyssengas immediately informed the relevant authorities and the local fire brigade. Experts from the company are on site to repair the pipeline and put it back into operation as quickly as possible.
