The timetable for reducing L-gas exports from the Netherlands to Belgium, France and Germany was announced by the Dutch authorities at the end of 2012: the gradual reduction of L-gas exports to Belgium (and therefore to France as L gas is also exported to France), will begin in October 2024 and end in 2030. The reason behind this announcement is the forecasted decline of the L-gas Groningen gas field (10%/year production decline expected as from 2020). Most of the L-gas used in France transits through Belgium meaning that L-gas transit capacity need to be ensured until conversion is done in France. For the Fluxys Belgium grid, infrastructure modifications will be required to transport H gas to the newly converted L zones in Belgium and in NW Europe.
