In Europe, security measures have been strengthened to protect pipelines and oil and gas facilities. The underwater and land routes along which the pipes are laid are now patrolled.

This information was shared in an article by journalists of the American newspaper Wall Street Journal.

The US media reports that now offshore drilling platforms and pipelines are guarded by warships and aircraft, as well as underwater drones. And the objects of the oil and gas industry are taken under protection by police and special forces.

There is enough work for them there, because, for example, the total length of pipelines laid in the waters of Norway and in the Mediterranean Sea is almost ten thousand kilometers.

Not only the government services of European countries, but also local energy companies began to treat security issues at oil and gas facilities more carefully. They install additional video cameras and take other measures.

Such an increase in security measures is associated with an incident in the Baltic Sea, when the Nord Stream and Nord Stream–2 gas pipelines were blown up under water. Now the Europeans are afraid that similar cases may be repeated at other facilities of the oil and gas industry.

In September, the pressure in the gas pipelines SP and SP-2, laid along the bottom of the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany, sharply decreased. As it turned out, the cause of the fuel leak was underwater explosions.
