OSLO (Reuters) -Norwegian natural gas flows to Europe are expected to be higher during the summer of 2025 compared to the two previous years due to a less extensive maintenance programme, gas system operator Gassco said on Tuesday.
The maintenance season at Norwegian oil and gas fields, and at onshore processing plants, officially begins on April 1 and lasts through the summer.
“This year’s planned maintenance activities are based on stable and high natural gas deliveries from Norway to Europe throughout the period,” Gassco said in a statement, adding that less work was planned in 2025 than in 2023 and 2024.
“This will lead to increased deliveries this summer,” it said.
