We do this together with and on behalf of many important players on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS). Safe, reliable and efficient operation is always our priority, and safety always comes first. It is gratifying to note that virtually all HSE indicators moved in the right direction during 2019. An absence of gas leaks provides an important example of this. We also again achieved good gas deliveries from the NCS, providing some 107 billion standard cubic metres (scm) of natural gas to the UK and continental Europe. That nevertheless represented some reduction from 2018. One reason for this decline is that we implemented an extensive maintenance programme on the transport network during the year. That work safeguards the integrity and safety of our gas deliveries for the future.

  • Sak 1: Mål Og Indikatorer for Måloppnåelse Og Effektiv Drift I
    Sak 1: Mål og indikatorer for måloppnåelse og effektiv drift i heleide selskaper der staten har en samfunnsmessig begrunnelse eller et sektorpolitisk mål med eierskapet Målet med undersøkelsen har vært å vurdere om heleide selskaper der staten har en samfunnsmessig begrunnelse for eller et sektorpolitisk mål med eierskapet, benytter mål og indikatorer for måloppnåelse og effektiv drift og rapporterer med bakgrunn i disse. Videre er det vurdert i hvilken grad departementene følger opp og vurderer samfunnsmessige effekter eller sektorpolitisk måloppnåelse og effektiv drift i selskapene. Som eier skal staten utarbeide et tydelig mål for eierskapet, fastsette vedtekter og velge styre, samt følge opp statens forventninger. Staten kan også benytte virkemidler som sektorspesifikk lovgivning, konsesjoner, statlige tilsyn og finansielle virkemidler som tilskudd, kjøp av tjenester og brukerfinansiering. Valg av styringsvirkemidler og selskapsform setter rammer for selskapets virksomhet og for statens eieroppfølging. Selskapets styre skal utarbeide klare mål og strategier innenfor rammene av selskapets vedtekter og rapportere om oppnåelse av disse til eier. Flere av Riksrevisjonens tidligere undersøkelser har vist at staten i liten grad benytter eierdialogen til å følge opp de samfunnsmessige effektene eller den sektorpolitiske måloppnåelsen som ligger til grunn for eierskapet. Undersøkelsene har også vist at det er behov for å styrke selskapenes arbeid med å fastsette mål og indikatorer som gjør det mulig å vurdere måloppnåelse og effektiv drift. Studier foretatt av blant annet Sørensen og Rattsø og Direktoratet for forvaltning og IKT har pekt på lignende utfordringer. For å tydeliggjøre statens mål med eierskapet i det enkelte selskap har den statlige selskapsporteføljen siden 2006 vært inndelt i fire kategorier.

Email g [email protected] Abstract In recent times, there has been a growing trend by airports and airlines to use aviation biofuel as an environment sustainability measure. Using an instrumental qualitative case study research design, this paper examines the evolution of sustainable aviation fuels at Oslo Airport Gardermoen. Oslo Airport Gardermoen was the first airport in the world to offer the first airport in the world to offer aviation biofuels to all airlines in 2016. The qualitative data were examined by document analysis. The study found that the use of sustainable aviation biofuels has delivered tangible environmental benefits to Oslo Gardermoen Airport. The usage of aviation biofuels has enabled the airport, and the airlines using sustainable aviation biofuels, to reduce their greenhouse gases by 10-15%. Also, as part of Norway’s efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the Norwegian Government have mandated that the aviation fuel industry must mix 0.5% advanced biofuel into jet fuel from 2020 onwards.
