Challenge yourself on some of the most advanced engineering projects on the NCS.
The Norwegian Continental Shelf is a hub of technological development for the oil & gas industry, and our engineers are at the forefront of this innovation. We’re leading the charge to produce oil & gas more responsibly, efficiently and sustainably than anywhere else in the world. Join us and you’ll work with cutting-edge technology to help transform the way we extract natural resources.
We’re recruiting across a range of engineering disciplines including electrical, piping, automation, process, mechanical and cyber-security. We’re also looking for experts in project and programme management and planning.
Where you’ll work
We’re looking for engineers and project experts to join our Development and Production team as well as our Operations Technology entity.
Development and Production Norway
Development and Production Norway (DPN) is responsible for safe and efficient operations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS).
Decades of experience on the NCS have given us a deep understanding of its geology, fields, and what is required to succeed there. This expertise enables us to manage reserves responsibly, so that we can secure jobs and energy supplies for many years to come.
We currently operate 42 fields, producing 2.5 million* barrels a day from giants such as Johan Sverdrup, Troll and Statfjord and smaller fast-track projects.
*Including volume from our partners
Operations Technology
Our Operations Technology (OTE) team enables Equinor to lead the way in development and production innovation, safety and efficiency.
Using digital tools to provide our offshore operations with instant access to data, OTE engineers and project leads help identify issues and opportunities to improve decision-making. This vital work is one of the reasons why Equinor is set to be one of the most efficient and sustainable producers of oil and gas on the NCS for many years to come.
Our Integrated Operations Centre (IOC) and the Geo Operations Centre (GOC) are perfect examples of how Operations Technology is shaping the future of production on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
Why Equinor?
Our work on the NCS is central to our local and international commitments to climate change and emission reduction, so you’ll be joining a team at the heart of our efforts to shape the future of energy, starting with the transformation of how we extract oil and gas.
Our DPN and OTE teams exemplify the collaborative culture that makes Equinor such a rewarding place to work. You’ll be working alongside creative thinkers, people with different perspectives, and who are not afraid of tackling projects others may find daunting. We believe that open minds and a diversity of experience and disciplines fuels innovation and makes us more resilient.
As well as investing in some of the most advanced projects on the NCS, Equinor is well-known for investing in its employees. We offer career-long opportunities for personal and professional development and take the wellbeing of our employees very seriously. Our product may be energy, but our greatest resource will always be our people.
Equinor – the bigger picture
In Norway, we aim to reduce absolute greenhouse emissions from our operated offshore fields and onshore plants by 70% by 2040, down to near zero by 2050. That’s why we are working on making substantial improvements in the efficiency of oil and gas production. For example, the production of oil from our Johan Sverdrup field is setting a new standard for CO2 efficiency, with emissions below 1kg per barrel, compared to a global average of around 18kg. We’re also a leader in the development of land-based power supply to our offshore assets that enables this reduction.
