Production
Figure 3.3: Danish production of natural gas since 1990. Numbers in TWh/year.
Figure 3.3 displays the Danish natural gas production from the North Sea since 1990. It follows that the production has declined significantly since 2008, where the production was about 110TWh/y to about 50TWh/y in 2015. Danish gas from the North Sea flows mainly via pipes to Denmark, where it covers Danish consumption (see figure 3.1). Part of the gas is transited through Denmark to Sweden and gas is also exchanged with Germany across the Danish-German bor- der. This exchange can be a net-export (2010–12, 2014) or a net-import (2013). From the North Sea some of the Danish gas is transported directly to the Nether- lands (figure 3.4).
