    * Norway gas exports total 276 mcm/d

    * Supplies to Britain rise by 11 mcm/d

    OSLO, May 6 (Reuters) - Norwegian pipeline gas exports rose

    on Monday morning on higher flows to Britain, partly offset by a

    small drop to France and Belgium, data from gas system operator

    Gassco showed.

    Total (NYSE: TOT - news) deliveries to Europe including Britain were running at

    a rate of 276 million cubic metres (mcm) per day by 0755 GMT

    compared to the daily average of 268 mcm last Friday.

    Supplies to Britain firmed by 11 mcm to 56 mcm, but flows

    through the Langeled pipeline were running at a half of its 72

    mcm capacity.

    Deliveries to UK were cut last week due to an outage at

    Heimdal riser platform preventing gas flows from the Oseberg

    field to St. Fergus terminal via the Vesterled pipeline.

    Supplies to France eased by 3 mcm to 45 mcm, and those to

    Belgium slipped by 2 mcm to 36 mcm on Monday.

    Combined deliveries to Germany and the Netherlands inched up

    by 2 mcm to 139 mcm.

    The export figures for Norway are based on gas fed into the

    system at a certain time and calculated to a daily average.

    Volumes can vary throughout the day as producers adjust the

    amount of gas they pump.
