  1. “Any attack on critical civilian infrastructure, including energy infrastructure, is unacceptable. This incident must not be allowed to further increase tensions or deepen divisions in an already tense regional context.”

  2. “Over a 20-year time frame methane has more than 80 times the planet-warming potency of carbon dioxide, and roughly 30 times its potency over a 100-year time frame. It is not yet possible to assess how much methane has actually been released into the atmosphere, given the many uncertainties. Thirdly, the incident also makes the vulnerability of critical energy infrastructure manifestly clear. It underscores the importance of accelerating the energy transition in order to create a clean, resilient and sustainable energy system while ensuring universal access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy for all. As the Secretary-General emphasized at the launch of the Global Crisis Response Group’s third brief, every country is part of this energy crisis.”

  3. “According to the report Global impact of war in Ukraine: Energy crisis — Brief No.3, published by the United Nations Global Crisis Response Group in August, the high price volatility witnessed since the pandemic, particularly in 2022, suggests that prices remain at high levels and could rise again, causing socioeconomic stress across the world. The incident could exacerbate the high price volatility on the energy markets in Europe and around the world. Secondly, the potential environmental impact of the leaks is a matter of deep concern. A discharge of hundreds of millions of cubic metres of gas into the atmosphere can result in hundreds of thousands of tons of methane emissions.”

  4. “Neither pipeline was in operation, as supplies to Nord Stream 1 were halted this month and Nord Stream 2 has never come into operation. However, both pipelines contain natural gas and were reported to have held several hundreds of millions of cubic metres of natural gas at the time of the incident. At this stage, a site inspection has not yet been done and details on what exactly happened remain unknown. While the causes of the incident are being investigated, it is equally urgent to address the consequences of those leaks. I would like to point out three possible potential effects. First, the damage to the Nord Stream pipelines raises concerns regarding the uncertainty in the global energy markets.”

  5. “Mr. Hanif: I have been requested to brief the Security Council on the issue of recent leaks in the Nord Stream pipelines. I should emphasize that all of the information and data cited in this briefing are from publicly available sources. The United Nations is not in a position to verify or confirm any of the reported details related to the incident. Between 26 and 29 September, four leaks were detected in the Nord Stream submarine pipelines in the Baltic Sea. The first was reported in the Nord Stream 1 pipeline on the morning of 26 September in Europe when seismologists detected a spike in activity. The second and third were reported in the Nord Stream 1 pipeline on the evening of 26 September. A fourth leak was reported in the Nord Stream 2 pipeline on the morning of 29 September.”
