Foreign Affairs committee  It's not being used.

Foreign Affairs committee  At this point, if a pipeline is not functional, then a compression station cannot operate. I cannot speculate about the future.

Foreign Affairs committee  It's still in Germany.

Foreign Affairs committee  As long as the pipeline is not operable, the gas turbines would not provide any use.

Foreign Affairs committee  Nord Stream 1.

Foreign Affairs committee  For the air derivative gas turbines, we use them for various purposes. Power generation is one of them. Industrial applications is another, and when I talk about industrial applications, a gas turbine is basically used as a mechanical driver for compressors, and those compressors can be utilized in compression stations in pipelines to forward natural gas, for instance.

Foreign Affairs committee  We are an energy technology company. We are involved in the operations at AGT. We maintain the turbines. We cannot speculate on what alternative energy solutions need to be put in place to support Europe through the winter.

Foreign Affairs committee  I cannot comment on that question.

Foreign Affairs committee  It's with a subsidiary of Gazprom.

Foreign Affairs committee  We built these turbines, these energy technology products. I'm not sure if you're familiar with the technicalities of the turbine. It's basically rotating equipment that is similar to an aircraft engine. These turbines have to undergo scheduled maintenance in order to continue operation.

Foreign Affairs committee  They were scheduled to be around those hours, every—

Foreign Affairs committee  Thank you for your question. I prefer to do this in English. You are correct. I cannot comment on any damage that was done to any pipelines, whether Nord Stream 1 or Nord Stream 2.

Foreign Affairs committee  Feel free to address me by my first name, Arne. I know that my last name is a little complicated. To answer your question, I do not think this was our decision to make. We informed the government about this new political situation at stake that we couldn't balance, and we really filed the permit only to get guidance from Global Affairs.
