Werne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, compressor stadium and pumping station for natural gas. Open Grid Europe, Werne station. The OGE compressor station in Werne is the central hub in the German natural gas grid. At around 25 billion cubic metres a year, around a quarter of the natural gas consumed in Germany flows through the Werne compressor station. The natural gas flows into the station from northern Germany, the North Sea and the Netherlands via five large entry pipelines. After the gas has been cleaned, it is compressed by eleven compressors driven by gas turbines with a total drive power of approx. 160, 000 kW. With outlet pressures of up to 100 bar, the gas flows leave the station via eight outlet pipes and are distributed throughout Germany in all directions, Europe
