- The value of Norway's state-owned oil and gas fields has fallen by about a third in two years, or by more than $50B, mostly reflecting lower oil and gas prices, the country's government says.
- A new report estimates the value of Norway's direct ownership in oil and gas fields at 810B kroner ($97.9B), down from 1.23T kroner in a similar estimate two years ago.
- Last year, Norway government's derived half of its oil and gas revenue from production taxes, 43% from direct ownership in oil and gas assets, and 7% from dividends paid by Statoil (STO +0.4%), in which the government owns a 67% stake; government-owned fields contributed 27% of Norway's total oil and gas output, or ~1M boe/day.
