The start-up of the Victory field marks the first new gas from the West of Shetland since 2017 and the first new gas field into the St Fergus Gas Terminal since the Martin Linge field in 2021.
Gas from the Victory field will be transported via NSMP’s 234 km Shetland Islands Regional Gas Export (SIRGE) pipeline into the Frigg UK Association (FUKA) pipeline.
As one of the UK’s most significant subsea infrastructure assets, the FUKA pipeline has the capacity to carry 36 million cubic meters of gas per day. From there, Victory gas will be delivered to the St Fergus Gas Terminal in north-east Scotland, where it is processed to provide a safe and reliable source of energy to the UK economy.
Angela Fletcher, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) at NSMP, said: “I congratulate Shell on delivering an exemplary project and first gas from the Victory field. NMSP’s infrastructure delivers high reliability and availability for all of our customers. We are delighted to support Shell in supplying gas to meet the UK’s demand.”
“Home-grown gas production is a national asset underpinning energy security and economic growth. Critical projects like Victory enable the oil and gas industry to reduce the UK’s reliance on imported LNG, while safeguarding UK jobs and communities.”
