The rethink in strategy comes as Norway strives to keep up with growing demand for its energy exports in the wake of Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Norway last year overtook Russia as Europe\u2019s biggest natural gas supplier and says it is now seeking to maintain Europe\u2019s energy security by exploring the Barents Sea for further resources. It is estimated that roughly two-thirds of the country\u2019s undiscovered oil resources lies off the country\u2019s northern coast in the Arctic\u2019s Barents Sea. And yet, the desire among energy companies to explore the Barents Sea for oil and gas has been relatively subdued in recent years, in part due to high costs and limited opportunities to export gas to markets.<\/p>\n<p>Environmental campaigners at Friends of the Earth Norway, WWF-Norway and Greenpeace Norway have described the country\u2019s lobbying for continued oil and gas expansion as \u201cembarrassing,\u201d \u201cextremely reckless\u201d and \u201ca middle finger to the Paris Agreement.\u201d Norway has been one of the world\u2019s top crude producers for the past half-century thanks to its gigantic North Sea petroleum deposits \u2014 the spoils of which have been used to provide a robust safety net for current and future generations.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2023\/05\/22\/norway-urges-energy-giants-to-ramp-up-search-for-arctic-oil-and-gas.html\">CNBC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-367\/\">Norway faces backlash from campaigners for \u2018reckless\u2019 pursuit of Arctic oil and gas<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1682,575,771,1014,594],"class_list":["post-114380","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-arctic","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-gas","tag-norway","tag-oil"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114380","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=114380"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114380\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=114380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=114380"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=114380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
