Transforming and preparing the NCS for a low carbon future

The topic for this dialogue is energy transition, future energy solutions and preparing the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS) for a low carbon future. A key question is: How do we transform the NCS, while still providing the energy needed?

The need to ensure a good balance between available energy, affordable energy, and energy without greenhouse gas emissions is challenging.

How can we drive the energy transition forward together?

We aim to contribute to a balanced conversation about the energy transition, the role Equinor and industry partners take and what it will take to succeed.
