Tsvetana Paraskova · August 26, 2026 · Week 2026-35
Summary
Equinor is pursuing an international growth strategy to increase its overseas oil and gas output by 27% to 950,000 boepd by 2030. The company is concentrating its growth capital on core, lucrative regions including the U.S., Brazil, and Angola, following recent portfolio high-grading which included divestments from Azerbaijan and Nigeria.
Strategic Implication
Equinor's explicit focus on the Americas and West Africa for production growth signals a de-prioritization of new large-scale E&P investments in the MENA region by the Norwegian IOC.
