    Confirmation that the NCS is competitive, both in terms of cost and emissions

  • What is needed for Norway to maintain its role as a stable, long-term and secure supplier of oil and gas to Europe

  • Challenges, dilemmas and opportunities when this activity must adapt to a stricter climate policy framework

Place: The Norwegian Petroleum Directorate’s offices, Valhall auditorium, at Ullandhaug in Stavanger.
