This article is based on meetings and discussions in Norway between October 30 and November 2. They were organised by German think-tank Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES) and the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO). The meetings included Statoil, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Norges (the central bank of Norway) and PRIO.
These helped better understand Norway’s approach to oil and gas, values, transparency, business model and views about European markets and Eastern Mediterranean (East Med) prospects.
