OSLO: Norwegian gas exports to the rest of Europe fell on Monday from the previous session due to an unplanned outage at Norway’s Gullfaks field, data from gas system operator Gassco showed.
Gas flows to Europe were running at 339 million cubic metres per day (mcm/day) by 1025 GMT, down 2 mcm from volumes delivered on Friday. The outage at Gullfaks field was expected to reduce Norway’s gas production capacity by 6.7 mcm/day, and to last for 1-2 days, Gassco said.
