Description
Description | The Snøhvit Future project aims to strengthen Norway's position as a reliable and long-term supplier of gas produced with very low greenhouse gas emissions. It involves onshore compression to maintain plateau production on Hammerfest LNG and electrification of Hammerfest LNG to reduce CO2 emissions by 850,000 tonnes annually. The project is about halfway completed but has been postponed due to complexities and safety shutdowns, with onshore compression now expected to start in 2029, one year later than originally planned. |
