Series of gas fields in the North Sea
The K14-K18 gas fields are significant natural gas producing areas in the Netherlands sector of the North Sea, about 120 km north west of Den Helder. These five contiguous fields started producing gas in 1977 and are still operational.
The fields.
The K14-K18 gas fields are located in the Southern North Sea. They extend over the Netherlands Offshore Blocks K14, K15, K16, K17 and K18. The gas reservoirs have the following properties: 
Development.
The K14-K18 reservoirs were developed over an extended period by a number of offshore installations across the five Blocks.
K14 and K15 installations.
The initial installations in blocks K14 and K15 were:
Gas production from these platforms was to the following pipelines.
K14, K15 and K17 installations.
The fields were developed further from the mid-1980s through five satellite installations. 
Gas from the K14-FB1 installation is routed to the K14-FA1 installation. Gas from the K15 installations is routed to the K14-FA1 installation. Gas from the K17 Monotower is routed to the K14-FB1 installation.
K18 installations.
The K18 Golf gas field is a military restricted zone which necessitated development by subsea satellites. 
The output projection was 375.7 million normal cubic meters per year. Gas is routed to the K14-FA1 installation. 
The Kotter oil field is in Block K18, however there is no export route for the gas and the K18-FB gas accumulation has not been developed.
K16 Field.
The K16 Field is a stranded asset with no nearby gas transport infrastructure. The field has not been developed.
