Abstract
Since the TROLL FIELD was declared commercial, many different development concepts have been considered based on a fully integrated offshore drilling, production and accommodation platform. Norske Shell has, as development operator and with Partners consent, decided to change this concept to include three main elements. The new concept consists of a less complex offshore platform, pipelines for transport of wet gas to shore, and an onshore processing and compression plant. In the processing plant the gas will first be treated and then compressed for export by pipeline to the European Continent. Landbased processing was chosen to improve safety, increase the ability to meet a growing demand for TROLL gas and improve the economic potential of the project. Figure 1.
