FRANKFURT, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Siemens Energy, which carries out repair work on turbines used to pump gas through Nord Stream 1, said on Thursday there was no news to report on the maintenance or potential maintenance of equipment linked to the pipeline. Russia's Gazprom has cited faulty or delayed equipment as the main reason for a reduction of deliveries via Nord Stream, which is running at a fifth of its total capacity. It added one of the turbines had already been in Muelheim an der Ruhr, Germany, for several weeks after undergoing maintenance at its site in Montreal. Gazprom plans maintenance at the Portovaya compressor station from Aug. 31 to Sept. 2, which will halt flows along the Nord Stream 1 pipeline that links Russia and Germany via the Baltic Sea. Gazprom, in a statement posted on Telegram, said none of the turbines for the Portovaya compressor station was under repair in Canada.
