German steelmaking group Salzgitter AG said its steel pipe subsidiary Mannesmann Line Pipe GmbH had received a pipeline order from German energy operator EWE NETZ GmbH. As a result, a new LNG pipeline will be built, which will significantly contribute to expanding the LNG infrastructure in northwestern Germany and improving Germany's energy security.

In addition, green hydrogen can also be transported through pipelines, which will benefit the emerging hydrogen economy. The pipes will be distributed by rail to storage yards along the pipelines. It not only ensures logistics but also reduces CO2 emissions during transport.

The total length of the pipeline is about 70 kilometers.
