“Carbon Knut” has a black belt in energy efficiency
Among his 20,000 colleagues in Equinor, Knut Simon Helland is best known as “Carbon Knut.” And he bears his nickname with pride: emissions from Norwegian platforms have been reduced by 1.4 million tonnes – every single year – since 2008. Helland has led this team effort in Equinor – a mission that will continue towards zero in 2050. Find out how he plans to get us there.

Johan Sverdrup
Johan Sverdrup is the third largest oil field on the Norwegian continental shelf, with expected resources of 2.7 billion barrels of oil equivalent.
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage
Equinor is a pioneer within carbon capture and storage, where we stop CO2 reaching the atmosphere by storing carbon safely and permanently under the sea bed.
Electrification of platforms
Electrification means replacing a fossil-based power supply with renewable energy, enabling a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from our offshore oil and gas production.
To get there. Together
Our ambition is to continue to supply energy to society with lower emissions and net zero by 2050. But we can not do the job alone.
Sustainability in Equinor
In Equinor, we agree that the transition to a more sustainable energy system is taking place too slowly. We are working to accelerate the transformation of the world’s energy systems to drive decarbonisation.
