Nationwide (offshore): Oil and gas sector strike from 5 June 2026 (if mediation fails)
In 3 daysLast Updated:
Offshore oil and gas workers across Norway have announced a strike from 5 June 2026 if state mediation on 3–4 June does not produce a deal. The first withdrawal would target installations including Statfjord A, Oseberg and Ula and involve several hundred workers at Equinor, Aker BP, Okea, Helmerich & Payne, Coor and ESS. The dispute is over pay in this year’s main settlement, with unions Styrke, SAFE and Lederne pushing for higher wages.
