The sad part is that Siemens is a German industrial giant that has apparently given up domestic manufacturing of anything non-computer related. The only tie-in to heavy industry on their website is computer control of same (internet of things stuff).

So yes, the shortcomings of just in time inventory for repair parts has combined with international sanctions and supply chain disruptions to leave Germany without 40% of their imported natural gas for the foreseeable future.

One has to wonder if they had ANY spare parts on hand such that some of the compressors were able to be put back into service, or if they bought the paradigm 100% and have no critical spare parts available locally as a standard practice.

As TG noted, it's not like they have no idea which parts are going to wear out fastest.

Penny wise, pound foolish. It seems to be the latest idea for the "best" way to run a business. All over the world.

Looks like the German population is foooooked if these issues aren't resolved before Fall comes around.
