The late life project calls for the construction of a new gas export facility to the UK.
A 23.1-kilometre pipeline called the Tampen Link has been laid from Statfjord B to the Flags transport system, which runs from Britain’s Brent field near Statfjord to St Fergus in Scotland.
The pipeline was laid in the spring of 2007 and was ready for gas exports on 12 October 2007.
The operatorship of Tampen Link was transferred from Statoil to Gassco on 1 September 2007.
