       OSLO, Feb 20 (Reuters) - Denmark's Tyra natural gas
field remains on track to restart production by the end of
March, BlueNord  BNOR.OL , a partner in the
TotalEnergies-operated  TTEF.PA  development, said on Tuesday.
    Denmark's largest gas field, which was temporarily shut for
redevelopment in 2019, is expected to produce 2.8 billion cubic
meters (bcm) of gas per year, TotalEnergies has said, more than
the country consumed in 2023.
    Denmark currently depends on imports of gas but the restart
of Tyra would again make the country self-sufficient and a net
exporter of natural gas. 
        The field will undergo a four-month ramp-up phase and is
expected to reach plateau production level in mid-2024, BlueNord
said.
  
        TotalEnergies operates Tyra on behalf of the Danish
Underground Consortium (DUC), where the French group holds a
43.2% stake. Norway's BlueNord holds a 36.8% stake.
