operatörens

Operatørens is the possessive form of operatør, the operator, in Norwegian and Danish, meaning "the operator's." It is used to indicate something belonging to or controlled by an operator, such as a person, company, facility, or service. The form arises from the genitive suffix -ens, a common way to form possessives for definite nouns in Danish and Norwegian, particularly in formal or regulatory writing.

In use, operatørens appears in contract clauses and regulatory texts to specify rights and duties. Examples include operatørens ansvar (the operator's responsibility), operatørens rettigheter (the operator's rights), and operatørens plikter (the operator's duties). It is widely found in sectors where an operator runs essential services, such as telecommunications, electricity or gas utilities, public transport, aviation, and industrial systems.

The expression is a generic linguistic form rather than the name of a specific entity. Its appearance does not denote a particular organization but a relationship of ownership or accountability to an operator. Similar possessive forms occur in other Scandinavian languages, for example operatörens in Swedish and Danish, and operatørens in Norwegian usage.
