First production well N05-A drilled

In autumn, ONE-Dyas drilled the first well from which natural gas can be produced from field N05-A in the Dutch part of the North Sea. Soon, the production well will be connected to the Dutch natural gas network via the production platform. This connection ensures that the gas is connected to end-users.

Dutch minister Hermans responds to questions

27 September 2024

On 26 September 2024, Climate and Green Growth Minister Hermans answered parliamentary questions regarding gas extraction project N05-A. As Minister Hermans wrote in the parliamentary letter of 9 September: ‘It is important that the gas is still produced this winter, especially also because the Groningen field was permanently closed this spring, so that less gas has to be imported. This gas production thus contributes to the security of gas supply to the Netherlands. In addition, this gas has a lower carbon footprint than imported gas, thus contributing positively to global climate goals.’
