May 24 (LNGJ) - Equinor, the Norwegian LNG and pipeline natural gas supplier to Europe, said it was investing 12 billion crowns ($1.12Bln) to further develop the infrastructure underpinning the Troll West gas province on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
“This project will secure high gas production from the Troll field. The partnership’s decision is important in order for us to fully utilise the capacity of existing infrastructure. We've chosen to use solid, familiar suppliers, most of whom already have framework agreements with us,” said Geir Tungesvik, Equinor's executive vice president for Projects, Drilling and Procurement. The new infrastructure will accelerate production from the reservoir equivalent to about 55 billion standard cubic metres of natural gas.
