Energy abounds – energy in the Hordaland region

Hordaland produces 80% of the total amount of crude oil exported from Norway, and supplies gas to Europe from Norway’s largest gas field, the Troll field. The industry here is the largest employer – with approximately 20,000 talented individuals working within the oil and gas cluster in Hordaland. In addition, the strong hydroelectric industry is well-represented by companies whose activities are being felt far beyond the Norwegian border.
