Berlin, 1 April 2010  - Focus Reports, the contract publishing unit of Focus Communication, has published a special Netherlands report in the April 2010 edition of the Oil & Gas Financial Journal, the energy industry’s most reputed trade magazine. The report is online at Focus Reports’ dedicated energy website at http://www.pharma.focusreports.net/#state=ReportDetail&id=63.

Historically among Europe's most important energy sources, and internationally known as the headquarters of the world's largest publicly traded company, Royal Dutch Shell, the Netherlands is the world's 9th biggest producer and 5th biggest exporter of natural gas.  However, with domestic gas reserves and production now in decline, "The Netherlands now faces the challenge of making its ambitious aspirations a reality," says Nobuo Tanaka, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency.

The report features interviews with all stakeholders; such as the Minister of Economic Affairs M.J.A. Van der Hoeven, Bas Hennissen, Director of the Port of Rotterdam, and Gertjan Lankhors, CEO of GasTerra.
