waiter: Pipeline expansion important for security of supply
The Rostock pipeline for the PCK refinery in Schwedt is to be expanded, emphasized the parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Minister of Economics and Climate Protection, Michael Kellner (B’90/ Die Grünen). Although crude oil from Kazakhstan is currently being delivered, this always carries a certain risk. Therefore, an expansion of the capacity is necessary to ensure security of supply. The federal government has provided 400 million euros for this project and according to waiter, this money has been confirmed in the budget discussions.
The PCK refinery in Schwedt is currently taking over over 80 percent of its maximum performance. This positive development was confirmed by both the management and State Secretary Kellner in Schwedt on Monday.
The dependence on foreign oil deliveries always carries a certain risk of security of supply. In particular crude oil that is transported via Russian territory. In order to minimize this risk and to ensure stable care, it is crucial to expand the capacity of the Rostock pipeline.

The PCK refinery in Schwedt benefits from this measure and can currently have over 80 percent of its maximum performance. This is an important step to strengthen the regional economy and to secure jobs.
The expansion of the Rostock pipeline will not only ensure security of supply, but also reduce the dependence on foreign crude oil imports. This minimizes both economic and political risks and strengthened the country's energy security.
The Federal Government's decision to provide 400 million euros for the expansion of the Rostock pipeline shows the commitment to reliable and safe energy supply. This is a positive step towards a sustainable and independent energy policy.
The expansion of the Rostock pipeline will not only strengthen the regional economy, but also secure the country's energy supply. By increasing the capacity, future risks can be minimized and the resilience of the energy system can be strengthened.
The PCK refinery in Schwedt plays a crucial role in the country's energy supply. The expansion of the Rostock pipeline will help strengthen the regional economy and create more jobs. In addition, reliable supply of crude oil is ensured, which is important for the stability of the energy system.
