How to find our offices and locations in Norway
Our headquarters are located in Stavanger with group activities also located in Oslo and Bergen.
All our offices in NorwayAs the leading supplier of energy to Europe and the largest oil and gas operator on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS), we are focusing on responsible exploration, production, and development of oil and gas resources as well as renewable energy solutions.
As the energy transition accelerates, we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint and investing in renewable energy solutions, such as offshore wind farms, with an ambition to become a net-zero company by 2050. This shift also aligns with Norway's national goals to achieve climate neutrality by 2050.
Our strategy for the NCS can be summarised in four pillars:
Equinor, Shell and Total are investing in the Northern Lights project — Norway’s first licence for CO₂ storage on the NCS and a major part of the initiative that the Norwegian government calls Longship.
Norway Energy hub is Equinor’s industrial plan for Norway’s future energy industry, placing Norway at centre stage in accelerating the energy transition.
Hywind Tampen is the world’s first floating wind farm to power offshore oil and gas platforms, providing for the Snorre and Gullfaks offshore field operations in the Norwegian North Sea.
Our headquarters are located in Stavanger with group activities also located in Oslo and Bergen.

Equinor is fully committed to reducing emissions from our offshore oil & gas production. Here’s how we’re doing it.
We’re always exploring for the energy of tomorrow. While protecting the climate of tomorrow.
Our onshore facilities in Norway include activities in crude oil reception, gas processing, refining and methanol production. We also have operational responsibility for the world's most extensive subsea pipeline system for transportation of gas. In addition, we have seven supply bases along the coast that provide important knock-on effects in their local communities.
Onshore facilitiesEquinor is on track to maintain profitable production from the NCS at current level towards 2030. After 2030 the NCS will enter a more mature phase. It is therefore necessary to introduce new measures to tackle the future challenges of declining production from the big fields, ageing installations and the need for reduced CO2 emissions.
Our new ambition for the NCS is this: transforming the NCS for sustainable value creation for many decades. There are still substantial remaining oil and gas resources on the NCS. Some of these resources are near existing infrastructure, while other resources are difficult to find or located in smaller deposits requiring further technology development to become profitable.
Active exploration on the NCS is vital to succeed in revitalising the continental shelf. We are making two important moves: We have developed a strategy for more gas exploration. We will also test new ideas in some prospects every year. The likelihood of discovery in these wells will be lower than in other targets, but we see it as necessary to regularly test a few of what we call “game changing wells” in order to explore the NCS to its full potential.
Over the coming decades Equinor plans to drill up to 3000 production and exploration wells. This is almost as many wells as the company has drilled since it was established 50 years ago. This is an important measure to extract more profitable barrels from the fields we operate. We aim to achieve an average recovery rate of 60 and 85 percent respectively on our oil and gas fields.
The NCS still holds a lot of potential, but securing value creation and thousands of jobs for the decades to come is not an easy task. The changes needed will be bigger than ever before and are necessary as we continue to develop as a broad energy company.
