Pipeline and power cable construction

Construction of the gas pipeline is under way. A short, new natural gas pipeline of about 15 kilometres will be laid from production platform N05-A to the existing natural gas pipeline network of Noordgastransport (NGT). The temporary works are partly visible from the shore. The platform will be the first offshore gas treatment platform in the Dutch North Sea to run entirely on wind energy. To this end, a cable will be laid to the nearby German wind farm Riffgat. This connection will ensure near-zero emissions while drilling wells and producing natural gas.
