NEL pipeline, Gas pipeline in Lower Saxony, Germany
The NEL pipeline extends 441 kilometers across northern Germany, connecting Mecklenburg-Vorpommern to Lower Saxony with a 56-inch diameter transportation system.
The construction of the NEL pipeline started in spring 2011 after receiving planning approvals, leading to its operational launch in November 2013.
The pipeline represents Germany's commitment to energy infrastructure development, supporting the distribution of natural gas to millions of households across multiple regions.
NEL Gastransport manages the pipeline's operations, maintaining strict safety protocols while transporting 20 billion cubic meters of natural gas annually.
The pipeline required 24,000 individual pipes, each measuring 18 meters in length and weighing 15 tons, to complete the entire transportation network.
