Vår Energi produces 400,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day and holds interests in 190 licenses and 42 fields in operation. As an operator, the company is responsible for operating the fields Gjøa, Duva, Balder and Ringhorne in the North Sea, Fenja in the Norwegian Sea, and Goliat in the Barents Sea.
In addition, Vår Energi is continuously carrying out a number of exploration and drilling operations from rigs located across the entire Norwegian continental shelf.
“Vår Energi is a large and important company with knowledge and experience that will make a strong contribution to the standardisation and further development of emergency preparedness cooperation, both within OFFB and on the Norwegian continental shelf,” says Ole Jacob Haug, Managing Director of OFFB.
“At the same time, OFFB has resources and expertise that will help strengthen Vår Energi in its incident management capabilities. We look forward to a long and successful collaboration,” Haug adds.

Vår Energi will retain its own 2nd line emergency response organisation, but will now have OFFB as an important partner across a wide range of emergency response services – including training and exercises, courses, a call center for next of kin, crisis communications, and the Operator’s Centre for Evacuees and Next of Kin (OSEP).
“The new agreement means that we now have standing emergency response at all our OSEP locations throughout the year. This will benefit all our members,” says Haug.
