🌊Ripple effects from Equinor in Norway📈  A new report prepared by KPB finds that deliveries within exploration, development projects and operation of Equinor-operated fields and onshore facilities in Norway increased from NOK 134 billion in 2023 to NOK 142.6 billion in 2024.  A full 93% of these deliveries came from Norwegian suppliers located in 260 different municipalities. This resulted in an employment effect of more than 85,000 full-time positions. The greatest ripple effects came from operating our fields and onshore facilities, which accounted for more than NOK 85 billion in deliveries.  Looking towards 2035, we plan to ramp up activity on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS) 🇳🇴 And we must work with our partners and the supplier industry to continue to deliver competitive solutions.  If we succeed with this, we’ll be able to maintain value creation on the NCS, as well as preserve high energy deliveries to Europe over the long term 🇪🇺   You can find out more 👉 https://lnkd.in/dV_F4U8N Or you can dive into the full report ⬇️ (in Norwegian only)

The Johan Castberg oil field in the Norwegian Barents Sea is on stream, making today a red-letter day for Equinor and our partners Vår Energi & Petoro With volumes of 450-650 million barrels the field strengthens Norway’s role as a long-term reliable energy supplier 🇳🇴 The investments will be repaid in 2 years, and the field will produce for 30. A huge thanks to everyone who has contributed to delivering this major project. Are you one of them? Please let us know in the comments.

🌍 Neuigkeiten zum Northern Lights-Projekt: Millioneninvestitionen Gemeinsam mit Shell und TotalEnergies investieren wir nun über 661 Mio. EUR (7,5 Milliarden norwegische Kronen) in den Ausbau des wegweisenden CCS-Projekts Northern Lights. Dazu gehört auch die Gewährung von 131 Mio. EUR (ca. 1,5 Mrd. NOK) aus dem "Connecting Europe Facility" (CEF) Fund, der im vergangenen Jahr von der Europäischen Kommission genehmigt wurde. Mit der 15-jährigen Vereinbarung mit Stockholm Exergi über den Transport und die Speicherung von 900.000 Tonnen biogenem CO2 pro Jahr machen wir einen großen Schritt in Richtung einer Wertschöpfungskette für CO2-Abscheidung, -transport und -speicherung. Der Ausbau von Northern Lights erhöht die CO2-Einspeisekapazität bis 2028 von 1,5 auf 5 Millionen Tonnen pro Jahr. Erfahren Sie mehr ➡️ https://lnkd.in/d8GJmgUh

🌍 Breaking news for Northern Lights Together with Shell and TotalEnergies we’re now investing NOK 7.5 billion in the ground-breaking Northern Lights CCS project. With a new agreement to transport and store up to 900,000 tonnes of biogenic CO2 annually, we’re taking a major leap towards realizing carbon capture, transport and storage as a value chain🌱💚 With the expansion of phase 2 of Northern Lights, we aim to increase CO2 injection capacity to 5 million tonnes per year by 2028. Stay tuned as we continue this important journey! #NorthernLights #CCS #Sustainability Find out more 👉https://lnkd.in/d8GJmgUh

Today we are releasing our 2024 annual report, a year marked by strong operational performance despite a backdrop of increasing geopolitical instability. In 2024, we continued to make a valuable contribution to Europe’s energy security, and high commodity prices – combined with our strong performance – led to strong results 🇪🇺 We achieved high production levels through strong operational performance and efficient turnarounds and made strategic progress by optimising our portfolio through mergers and acquisitions. We continued to develop and execute our portfolio of new projects, both in Norway and around the world, that will drive our long-term industrial success 🇳🇴🌎 We achieved a 5% year-on-year reduction in absolute Scope 1+2 emissions in 2024 and a 34% reduction from the 2015 baseline, and saw an improvement in our net carbon intensity 📉 In 2024, we also welcomed around 2000 new colleagues to the company, renewing and replacing competence and capacity👨🏼🤝👨🏾 Our focus is on producing the energy the world needs today, and at the same time developing the energy systems needed for the future. This year’s annual report is more visual and user friendly – including a new dashboard that makes it easy to grasp our performance in three key categories: operational, financial and sustainability. It also includes a section outlining the future of our business – showing how we’re searching for better through innovations in the areas of artificial intelligence, 3D printing, offshore wind, hydrogen and ammonia, lithium, CCS, direct air capture, and oil and gas💡 All of our annual report downloads and information can be found 👉 https://lnkd.in/gvahmnKk And you can explore a condensed version of our annual report – The Annual Report in Brief – right here on LinkedIn ⬇️

We’re proud to announce that we’ve now started production at the Halten East development in the Norwegian Sea, two years following approval from Norwegian authorities 🇳🇴 When the six small and marginal gas discoveries that make up Halten East were found, it was difficult to see how they could become profitable. But thanks to good collaboration with partners Vår Energi and Petoro and the Norwegian authorities, we were able to come up with valuable and creative development solutions 🛠️ We have now tied in Halten East to the Kristin-Åsgard area in the Norwegian Sea, and are utilizing existing Åsgard B infrastructure and processing capacity. The gas will then be sent to Kårstø, where it will be exported to Europe via pipeline. And Halten East production will now also contribute to extending the lifespan of the Åsgard field. We’re starting up Halten East at a time where piped gas from Norway is in high demand and important for energy security⚡ In a challenging cost and inflation environment, the project has been delivered both on time and within our cost estimate, and will be paid back in full in approximately one year. In short, Halten East helps set the stage for other small discovery developments. It demonstrates the importance of area solutions and cooperation between licence owners and authorities to realise the full resource potential on the Norwegian continental shelf. And, together, we can develop industrial solutions that will continue to deliver energy with low costs and low emissions 📉 Find out more 👉 https://lnkd.in/d2rRcayj

Budowa obiektów zaplanowana jest na marzec 2025, a ich oddanie do użytku w połowie 2026 roku. 👷♀️   Wszystkich zapraszamy do obejrzenia filmu z wmurowania kamienia węgielnego w Łebie!   #Equinor #Polenergia #Bałtyk #Together

Shaping their own energy future⚡🔋  We tapped into the brains of twelve brilliant student teams, locking themselves in a hotel for 30 hours.  Developing and creating the energy systems of the future is not a task for a single company, sector nor profession. It is a joint challenge that our society as a whole need to work together to solve.  That includes future talents, like students of today.  When Equinor got the chance to collaborate with BI Norwegian Business school for their yearly student case competition, BIICC, my good colleagues in our department new business and investments, seized an opportunity for us to get valuable input on a real business opportunity.  The students got pitched a task from Equinor to create a sustainable, affordable solution for long duration energy storage (LDES) in a way that makes for a good business case.  Their input really impressed us.  We never expected the students to come up with all the answers, and their task was more than just helping Equinor solving a problem, as Uma Ranganathan from my organisation puts it so well in this video: it is about them thinking of a solution that will shape their energy future.
