‘The 3.2 kilometre Komo Airfield provides a gateway for large equipment to be transported to the project’s Hides gas conditioning plant, which will treat natural gas and condensate from the Hides and Angore fields, using Antonov-124 cargo aircraft,’ said Botten.

He said the project is on track for first LNG sales in 2014.
