Minami-Nagaoka Gas Field
The Minami-Nagaoka Gas Field is a gas field located in the southwest of Nagaoka, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. It was discovered in 1979. One of the largest in Japan, the field has been in production since 1984, with the completion of the Koshijihara Gas Plant. Even after more than 25 years of continuous output, Minami-Nagaoka still accounts for approximately 40% of Japan's total natural gas production.
