Our aim is to be a leading gas transporter in Europe. We will ensure reliable deliveries 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year, with the aid of our control room in Karmøy local authority north of Stavanger. European demand for Norwegian gas is steadily rising. Norway ranks as the world’s third largest exporter of pipeline gas, and currently supplies more than 15 per cent of all natural gas consumed in OECD Europe. This proportion is likely to increase over the next few years. Norway’s ability to deliver gas is significant for the daily lives of millions of people. Its reputation as a reliable supplier would be threatened if these deliveries failed to arrive. Even minor shutdowns on the NCS affect a Europe increasingly dependent on gas imports. So high regularity is essential for maintaining the position of Norwegian gas in a growth market. Ensuring that the companies which export this commodity and their European customers view the transport system as reliable is commercially critical for us at Gassco. That puts reliability at the core of our business. Our offices at Bygnes. Transport network. Capacity in the integrated transport system, which comprises pipelines, processing facilities, platforms and receiving terminals in continental Europe and the UK, has increased in recent years. It will be up to 350 million standard cubic metres (scm) of gas per day by 31 December 2007. The latest delivery record was set on 11 December 2006, when more than 300 million scm of gas was produced and delivered from the NCS in the course of a single day. Operatives in Dornum.

In this way, we can safeguard Norway’s leading role as a gas supplier. Zones ANd tarIffS The integrated system for Norwegian gas transport is divided into areas, each with fixed unit prices for transport and/or processing. Gassled area A: covers the pipeline carrying rich gas from the Tampen area of the North Sea to the Kårstø processing plant. Gassled area B: covers the pipeline carrying rich gas from the Halten Bank in the Norwegian Sea to Kårstø. Gassled area C: covers the Kårstø plant. Gassled area d: covers a number of pipelines, platforms and receiving terminals for transporting dry gas from Kollsnes and Kårstø, or directly from fields, to receiving terminals in the UK, France, Belgium and Germany. Gassled area E: covers the Kollsnes processing plant.
