Measure for measure

Abstract

Though exploration activity off Norway was seen to be picking up last year and strong interest shown in the latest APA and traditional licensing rounds, oil and gas production levels are currently falling far short of the 3 million boe/d targeted in 2004. Darius Snieckus opens OE's latest review of the Scandinavian offshore scene with a look at the Norwegian government's current action plan for the province - and its hopes of a 'moon landing' for carbon capture and storage technology.
