Norway eyes faster ramp-up of gas export to Britain

6/6/2024

The resumption on Friday of Norwegian gas exports to Britain via the Langeled pipeline will progress at a faster pace than initially planned, Norwegian system operator Gassco said on Thursday.

The ramp-up plan will see an available volume of 45 MMm³d of gas per day on Friday from Norway's Nyhamna processing plant, up from 35 MMm³d projected on Wednesday, according to a message on Gassco's transparency page.

Nyhamna, which processes gas for the Langeled pipeline, has a capacity of 79.8 MMm³d.
