Danish-Dutch natural gas submarine pipeline From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tyra West – F3 pipeline is a 100-kilometre (62 mi) long natural gas submarine pipeline connecting Danish and Dutch continental shelf pipeline systems. It facilitates the export of Danish gas into North West Europe. The 660 millimetres (26 in) pipeline, which cost over US$200 million, runs from the Maersk-operated Tyra West platform on the Danish continental shelf to the F3 – FB platform on the Dutch continental shelf. From F3 – FB platform, gas is fed through the NOGAT pipeline system to the Netherlands natural gas hub in Den Helder.[1]
