 To ease logistics , Norway took the initiative to establish Dronning Maud Land Air Network ( DROMLAN ) , a cooperation between the countries with bases in Queen Maud Land to streamline transport costs . Having an airfield at Troll allows quicker transport to the research stations in western Queen Maud Land , which are located further away from the incumbent airfields at Henriksenskjera and Novolazarevskaya . The first flight that was a preliminary to DROMLAN was made in 2000 from Cape Town , South Africa , to Henriksenskjera , where a Twin Otter was used onwards to Troll .
