Norwegian oil and gas major Equinor ASA said Wednesday that some
workers on the Johan Sverdrup field on the Norwegian continental
shelf have gone on strike but production is continuing as normal
for now.
Wage talks between the Norwegian Oil and Gas Association and the
trade union Lederne broke down late Tuesday, and 43 members of the
Lederne union who are working on Johan Sverdrup have subsequently
gone on strike.
Agreements were reached with the other two trade unions involved
in the talks, Industri Energi and Safe.
In total, the three unions involved in the talks represent
around 7,000 employees that work on Norwegian offshore oil and gas
installations for companies including Equinor, ConocoPhillips
Norway, Aker BP ASA, Lundin Energy Norway, Repsol Norway and
Wintershall Dea Norway, among others.
"Production continues as normal for the present, as the
assessment is that the field can be operated safely," Equinor said.
"Project activities are reduced due to the strike."
