Norwegian officials assert that the country will continue to be a stable oil and gas supplier to Europe, with its continental shelf playing a key role in energy security. They stress the necessity of stable investment and close EU cooperation to support ongoing production while advancing offshore wind, hydrogen, and carbon capture technologies.

Norway expects production to decline in the 2030s without further investment and exploration. The government has allocated areas for 2,500 megawatts of offshore wind and is committed to emissions reductions. Norway maintains a cooperative relationship with the EU, despite not being a member, and actively engages in energy transition initiatives.
