Fishs yuh safe?
« on: January 22, 2006, 09:09:32 AM »
was just reading the news this morning and saw the bombing of a pipeline in Georgia are..hope is not the one allyuh working on  :)

TBILISI, Georgia - Explosions hit pipelines running through southern Russia early Sunday, cutting the natural gas supply to Georgia and leaving the Caucasus Mountain country with just one day's reserves.
   
The blasts, which hit two pipelines in the southern Russian region of North Ossetia near the border with Georgia, also cut supplies to Armenia, said Viktor Beltsov, a spokesman for Russia's Emergency Situations Ministry.

Nikolai Shepel, chief prosecutor for Russia's southern region, was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying that prosecutors opened an investigation into deliberate destruction of property.

In recent years, pipelines in Russia's troubled North Caucasus region have occasionally been damaged in explosions that investigators have deemed sabotage, but the blasts have not caused major supply disruptions. Criminal groups and militants with ties to     Chechnya's separatist rebels have been suspected.

It will take two or three days to repair the pipelines, regional Emergency Situations Ministry official Vladimir Ivanov was quoted as saying by the ITAR-Tass news agency.

The cutoff threatened to plunge Georgia into a new energy crisis as it headed into a cold snap. The former Soviet republic, which relies on natural gas for most of its heating, has faced extreme energy shortages for more than a decade.

"The situation is very difficult. We have enough gas for just one day," Georgian Energy Ministry spokeswoman Teona Doliashvili told The Associated Press.

Two out of four units in the main electricity station in the capital, Tbilisi, were switched off because of the explosions, Doliashvili said. The temperature in the Georgian capital Sunday was 23 degrees Fahrenheit.

Georgia's Inguri hydroelectric plant, which generates some 45 percent of the country's electricity, was working at full power but would be unable to sustain operations at that intensity for more than a few days, Doliashvili said.

Georgian Energy Ministry officials headed to neighboring Azerbaijan on Sunday to negotiate the start of gas supplies on a pipeline between that country's capital, Baku, and the Georgian port of Batumi. It will take three days to get that pipeline operating, Doliashvili said.

Russian gas transits Georgia to reach Armenia, which sends back some electricity to Georgia. Electricity supplies from Armenia were also cut Sunday in response to the gas cutoff.
