Background
History
With the commissioning of the Shell Brent Field in 1976, Shell Expro and Exxon Chemicals sought permission to build processing plants at Mossmorran to process the natural gas liquids from the St Fergus gas terminal. A planning inquiry was completed in 1977. The Fulmar gas line carries gas from the Central North Sea to St Fergus.
