Equinor extends Norway LNG outage by 10 days

Equinor, the Norwegian energy company, has extended the outage at its Hammerfest LNG plant in Norway by an additional 10 days, now scheduled to last until January 18, 2025. The facility, which processes gas from the Snohvit field in the Barents Sea, was initially shut down due to a leak in a cooling circuit on May 31, 2024. The extended maintenance period is to ensure thorough repairs and safety checks, impacting the supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG) during this time. This outage affects Europe's LNG supply, as the plant is a significant contributor to the region's energy needs.
