Since 1987, Equinor has delivered safe and reliable energy to help power American society.
As a core country in Equinor’s international portfolio, the US presents a world-class opportunity set across oil & gas, renewable energy, and low-carbon value chains.
We’ve invested more here than in any other country outside of our Norwegian home base.
We are one of the largest equity producers of oil and natural gas in the US with both onshore and offshore assets. Our portfolio produces with a fraction of the global industry average emissions.
Equinor is a leader in America’s offshore wind industry, with Empire Wind 1 set to become the first offshore wind development to provide energy to New York City. We see even greater potential for the future development of the American renewable energy industry to meet growing demand for power.
The world needs more energy — but it must be affordable, reliable and accessible. How will we do it?
By continuing to reduce emissions from oil and gas production, growing our portfolio in renewable energy and developing technology that fuels the future.
As demand for energy grows in the United States, our broad energy portfolio is ready to meet the increased demand with sustainable US-based power sources.
Our people are the most essential part of our company, and that’s why safety and security is our top priority. We focus on preventing all accidents related to people, assets and the environment by creating a strong culture of safety that is at the core of our procedures and operations in every facility.
Hydrogen and carbon capture and storage have the potential to play a critical role in decarbonization, including in hard-to-abate sectors such as cement and steel.
Bayou Bend is a joint venture owned by Chevron, Equinor and TotalEnergies to develop a carbon capture and storage facility in Southeast Texas.
The project is positioned to be the leading transportation and storage solution in one of the largest industrial corridors in the country by sequestering carbon dioxide (CO2) safely and permanently underground.
Scaling up Direct Lithium Extraction projects in the Smackover basin
Equinor is partnering with Standard Lithium to develop Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) projects in Southwest Arkansas and East Texas through a joint venture.
DLE is an emerging production method that can help meet a growing lithium demand with a lower environmental footprint than traditional methods. Equinor is providing subsurface and project execution expertise to the joint venture. Lithium is an essential mineral in the energy transition and key to enhancing US energy security.
We’re innovating with others to shape the energy of the future
The need for a low carbon future poses new challenges that require partnerships, collaboration and innovative minds to create new energy solutions.
We recognize that we’re not the only ones with big ideas for sustainable ways to power the world. That's why we closely partner with industry peers, NGOs and leading academic institutions. Many of these partnerships are led from the United States, one of our key innovation hubs.
Our people are at the heart of everything we do, and we’re building a workforce that reflects the diversity of the business and communities that we operate in. Join us and work to shape the energy of the future! Over the last 30 years we have strengthened our presence in the US, employing a thousand people in all of our US office locations.
