Not as invalid as I thought, i did not know the prject was finished. Die welt writes:

-----------------------

Government representatives from Poland, Denmark and Norway opened the new Baltic Pipe pipeline in the Baltic Sea on Tuesday. Natural gas is to flow through it from Norway via Denmark to Poland. In parallel, Germany and Denmark continued to search for the cause of three leaks in the Nord Stream pipelines under the Baltic Sea.

"The era of Russian domination of gas is coming to an end - an era marked by blackmail, threats and coercion," Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said at the symbolic inauguration of Baltic Pipe's compressor station in Goleniow near the Polish port city of Szczecin. Now, he said, a new era of energy sovereignty and freedom is beginning. It's about energy security, he said, but also in security in a broader sense: showing that solidarity can make the continent more secure.

"This day marks a crucial geopolitical step for all of us," said Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. Norway's Oil and Energy Minister Terje Aasland stressed that Russia's President Vladimir Putin wants to divide the West, but he is not succeeding.
--------------------

This project included or still incldues the plan to have US LNG gas from terminals in Denmark delivered to Poland. This is the other reason, a purely financial-economical one, why the Polish side was so bitterly against Nordstream 1 and 2 - these projects by the Germans threatened the gains in income and influence Poland hoped/hopes to achieve by that pipeline, because gas from this pipeline then should be distributed into Europe - via Poland.
