Due to a fire in the main gas pipeline in Kuzbass, the supply of gas to the Kamerovo Nitrogen chemical plant, which produces ammonium nitrate and nitric acid for the production of explosives, was limited.

I ask you not to worry about it, the situation is under control, there is no threat to security," wrote the governor of Kemerovo region, Ilya Serdiuk, on the tg channel. He later added that the gas pressure had stabilized and the organization had reached "operational parameters". "The gas pressure in Ezot has stabilized. The project is returning to operational parameters, the production stores are gradually returning load. The technological process is under control, no violations were recorded. There is no threat to the safety of the workers, the equipment or the environment," the source said. He also emphasized that there are no plans to cut off private gas consumers. According to him, experts have already connected the reserve lines and are comparing the pressure, the heating systems will operate as usual.

Kemerovo nitrogen under international sanctions. It was previously reported that a pressure drop occurred in the main gas pipeline in the Topkinsky urban district of the Kemerovo region.
