Investment in the Norwegian continental shelf must come at a cost

The emphasis on quality has been crucial to the high safety standards, trust, and reliability as an energy supplier which Norway enjoys today. Over the past 50 years, we have built and developed a robust infrastructure based on solid field developments and modifications, investment in quality technology, and targeted maintenance. This has led to the authorities´ ability to grant significant lifespan extensions within petroleum operations. 

The goal is to operate equally safely and reliably in the years to come, including within new energy industries on the shelf. To succeed, companies must continue to invest in robust solutions and top-tier technology. They must prioritize maintenance of existing equipment and infrastructure—and ensure proper staffing and expertise. Protection against deliberate attacks must garner increased focus. 
  
Havtil will work purposefully on these complex challenges related to safety and security. 
 
We expect the same from the companies. It is a leadership responsibility. And the dividends will follow.
