Lubmin-Brandov Gastransport GmbH is an infrastructure affiliate of Uniper Global Commodities SE. It holds a 20% co-ownership share in OPAL (“Ostseepipeline Anbindungsleitung”), the Baltic Sea pipeline link.

OPAL is one of two pipeline links (the other one being the Northern European Gas Pipeline - NEL) that will take natural gas from Russia arriving at Lubmin near Greifswald through the Baltic Sea pipeline (Nord Stream I) to customers in western Europe.

The pipeline is technically operated by GASCADE Gastransport GmbH, a company of Wintershall DEA AG and SEFE.
