Summer Start for Two-Way UK-Dutch Gas Flows

摘要

The Balgzand-Bacton Line (BBL) natural gas pipeline connecting the UK with the Netherlands will become bidirectional by next summer, three months earlier than anticipated, operator BBL Co. said. The 16 Bcm/yr, 235 km BBL sends gas from the Netherlands to the UK, a crucial interconnection between Europe's two most liquid gas-trading hubs, the UK's National Balancing Point (NBP) and the Dutch Title Transfer Facility (TTF).
