Norway: Equinor awards $369m oil and gas drilling contracts

Oil and gas company Equinor has awarded two drilling contracts to COSL Offshore Management for work on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS).

To cut emissions from operations, Equinor says that both rigs have been revamped with energy-saving procedures and work methods.

I am real tired of the Norwegian government saying us citizens to be more climate friendly, to recycle, drive electric cars and such. Then doing an 180 and allowing firms to pump up millions of liters of the worst filth in the world to get some money.

In an ecological breakthrough, this new oil rings will be completely powered by solar power.
- It’s not an ecological breakthrough. It’s a green plaster on a massive, ecologically disasterous wound. It’s greenwashing.
