EQNR

EQNR is the ticker symbol for Equinor ASA, a Norwegian multinational energy company. Formerly Statoil, the company reorganized and rebranded in 2018 to reflect a broader energy portfolio that includes oil, gas, and low‑carbon energy activities. Equinor is headquartered in Stavanger, Norway, and operates globally with significant offshore oil and gas activities on the Norwegian continental shelf, as well as investments in other regions and in wind, natural gas, and low‑carbon projects.

The company’s operations span multiple business lines, including upstream exploration and production, downstream refining and marketing, midstream activities, and a growing portfolio of low‑carbon energy solutions. Equinor has pursued a strategy that combines traditional oil and gas development with investments in low‑carbon technologies such as carbon capture and storage and hydrogen, aiming to balance current energy needs with longer‑term energy transition objectives. The company emphasizes disciplined capital allocation, returning value to shareholders, and maintaining a robust operational footprint in its core regions while expanding into selected renewable and low‑carbon opportunities.

Equinor is majority owned by the Government of Norway, which gives the state significant influence over corporate governance. It is publicly traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange and on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker EQNR, attracting investors interested in a dividend‑oriented, integrated energy player with exposure to both conventional hydrocarbons and emerging low‑carbon ventures.

As of the mid‑2020s, EQNR continues to position itself as a major European energy company balancing traditional production with a strategic shift toward lower‑carbon energy and value‑driven growth.
