About Equinor
Equinor works in the energy field, active both inside Norway and abroad. Its business spans finding and assessing new oil and gas resources, bringing fields into production, and handling the wells and supply work that go with them.

The company is structured into separate segments covering exploration and production in Norway, international markets, and the United States, along with a marketing, midstream and processing arm and a renewables division. Beyond producing oil and gas, it markets, trades, and moves crude oil, condensate, natural gas, NGLs and refined products, running refineries, terminals and processing plants. It also trades power and emissions, builds transport infrastructure such as pipelines and shipping and rail links for gas and liquids, and offers services aimed at reducing carbon output.

- What they said
- Equinor reported a strong operational year in 2025 with record production and solid deliveries despite heightened geopolitical tension and market uncertainty. Management emphasized three priorities: maximizing long-term shareholder value, strengthening free cash flow by reducing CapEx and maintaining cost discipline, and developing an attractive portfolio with oil & gas production growth while prudently progressing sanctioned power and low-carbon projects. Key actions include a $4 billion reduction in the renewables/low-carbon CapEx outlook, prioritized capital allocation (roughly 60% to Norwegian Continental Shelf, 30% to international oil & gas, 10% to integrated power), and a focus on keeping a strong balance sheet and a robust, growing cash dividend. Management expects production growth (including international oil & gas) and is targeting more than 900,000 barrels per day by 2030 for international production. They highlighted a one-off arbitration win (price review) boosting results, provided clarity on Johan Sverdrup declining >10% but <20% in 2026, and outlined measures to accelerate NCS subsea tie-ins and reduce time from discovery to production. They discussed Empire Wind (U.S.) execution challenges tied to political/legal risk and tariffs but expressed confidence in continuing the project and noted expected tax credit (ITC) and project cash flow contributions. Financial framework highlights: cash flow from operations expected to increase to about $18 billion by 2027 (assumes $65 oil, $9 Europe gas, $3.5 US gas), share buyback guidance reduced to $1.5 billion for 2026, continued bankable dividend focus, and a conservative approach to further low-carbon investments until market/profitability conditions improve.
- Guidance
- Cash flow from operations: increase from $16bn to $18bn by 2027 (assumes $65/bbl oil, $9/MMbtu Europe gas, $3.5/MMbtu US gas). Capital allocation: ~60% Norway, ~30% international oil & gas, ~10% integrated power for 2026-27. CapEx outlook reduced by $4bn (mainly renewables/low-carbon). Share buyback: $1.5bn (2026). Empire Wind: equity cash flow contribution ~ $600m (project-level, plus portfolio tax effect); ITC assumed recognition ~ $2bn impact in 2027 (company share $2bn of $2.5bn). Production target: international oil & gas >900,000 barrels/day by 2030. No explicit 2028 CapEx guidance; more detail at Capital Markets Day in June.
- Risks flagged
- Geopolitical tension and market uncertainty; volatility in oil and gas prices; increased LNG supply and variable demand; lower-than-average European gas storage (circa 40%) increasing volatility; political and legal risks (notably U.S. politicalization impacting Empire Wind and tariff uncertainties); execution risks for large projects (tariffs, stop-work orders); slower-than-expected development of CO2 transport & storage and hydrogen markets; arbitration/legal dependencies (one-off outcomes); potential downside if oil/gas prices fall materially below assumed levels.
