Wow…takes a special kinda stupid to convince oneself the Russians would blow up their own line in a location and way that would permanently damage large chunks of the line rendering it useless forever…RatherBeBrewing said:The Russians did it. Act of god, force majeure, the sacred Gazprom cow has been untouchable but if they ever restart energy sales in the future they don’t want to pay any penalties.
They had the pressure in it down to almost nil for weeks, they cut the main overland route though Ukraine. Germany had already filled their reserves, and Putin is in his end game and he wanted to make sure the “West” understands - since half of the EU are a particularly Pollyanna type of optimistic dimwits.
Putin had his most unhinged moment to date, in his annexation ceremony today. Busiest week since February. Trying to mobilize a million Russians, while a third of a million men or more have fled in just one week. It’s beyond belief, but the Ukrainians have turned his army into cat food. I never thought it would happen, but the only way they might be able to stop this is with a small nuke and see what the reaction is.

Failure to maintain the pipeline which cause the explosion makes sense. The Russians have zero motivation otherwise to blow up their own cash cow.
The Throbber is neutral with regards to Ukraine and Russia.
Both countries have nice titties.
I still may have to give the edge to Venezuela. I'm thinking we must create a nonprofit of importing hot chicks
And freeing shakira

We may never know but this is at least interesting. One needs to read it. Open source data on Navy P8 that could have done the dead.

They all look the same horizontal in the dark.

I work in oil and gas and there's lots of obvious industry convos going on rn.
This would not have taken "special ops". This would have taken a specialized dive team and a decent sized fishing boat if done intentionally. Everyone with a motivation to do so could have pulled it off from small countries to corporations or something in between.
That said, agree with other post, Gazprom having a major accident on a pipeline that has been shut in is 81% likely. Some of the first people to gtfo of Russia were all the oil and gas people with all the know how.
I think it was Schlumberger that was the major servicer for Gazprom that hit the doors first so basically Russia has no one with any actual knowledge to maintain any of their systems. These idiots can't maintain a bmp for fuck's sake. Everyone in the industry said it was just a matter of time until something major happened and that was back in February.
Pipelines need maintenance services that are fairly specialized especially gas lines and undersea lines. I know, I'm literally running an integrity project on a line this week.
Don't be surprised if their pipeline to China blows up at some point as well. Intervention by "special ops" or not. -

It was the US. Natural Gas is the enemy. Most of the largest US cities have banned new installations. And the export of LNG had already doubled since 2 years before this and will triple by spring 2023. Which has caused an immediate 15% price increase with another 10% coming in the Spring.
Making a select few incredibly rich.
The whole West Coast has banned sales of gas powered vehicles in 12 years.

Those MAGA fucks just want to screw up what's best for us according to our betters -
It's nice to be free enough to do whatever my Woke Liberal Overlords deem as appropriate and responsible behavior.
Mostly while they get rich off whatever that is, of course at my expense. -
As Race posted back in September, Biden already said that we took the pipeline out. The fact that the our state controlled press no longer has any interest in who sabotaged the pipeline tells you who sabotaged the pipeline.RaceBannon said:Putin has
