English: Easington Natural Gas Terminal, Easington, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. Between 1975 and 2006 the Easington gas terminal's main functions were to receive and separate natural gas from the Rough offshore field and the BP operated Amethyst field, to receive treated gas from BP's Dimlington terminal and transfer it into the National Transmission System, and to withdraw gas from the National Transmission System during periods of low gas demand and re-inject it into the Rough field for storage.
In October 2006 the Easington end of Langeled was opened, a 1,200 kilometre long subsea gas pipeline connecting the Ormen Lange field's gas plant at Nyhamna in Aukra, Norway, with the reception facility here in Easington. Langeled is expected to supply the UK with 20 per cent of its gas requirements for now and the near future.
