  • We began gas liquefaction at the Melkøya plant outside Hammerfest in northern Norway during the autumn of 2007.
  • We signed a frame agreement in the autumn of 2007 for a 24% share of Shtokman Development AG, which will develop the first phase of the Shtokman field in the Russian sector of the Barents Sea. This ranks as the world’s largest undeveloped offshore gas discovery.
