Background

NOGAT (Northern Offshore Gas Transport) is a natural gas pipeline system which connects the Dutch continental shelf with an onshore gas plant and terminal at Den Helder, the Netherlands. The system has been operational since 1992.[4] The Danish continental shelf pipeline system is connected to the NOGAT through the Tyra West – F3 pipeline and the German continental shelf pipeline system is connected to the NOGAT through A6-F3 pipeline.[5][6]

The pipeline is partially owned (18.57%) by Neptune Energy Netherlands B.V., managed and operated by NGT.Other shareholders in NGT: XTO Netherlands Ltd 10.08%; Rosewood Exploration Ltd. 11.34%; PD Alternative Investments NL ApS 40.00%; Viceroy Gas Transport II Lux S.à.r.l. 20.00%.[2]

The pipeline was originally operated by Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij BV (NAM), but after acquiring the NAM's stake in the pipeline, GDF Suez took over the operator's function.[7][8]
