Statoil will maintain a high activity level in times ahead, but challenges the supplies industry to adapt and meet new challenges together with the companyThis year’s meeting with suppliers attracted close to 200 representatives from the supplies industry. They were introduced to the company’s future plans and not least the new vision.
It was a rebranded company that welcomed the suppliers to the IB centre at Forus this Friday. With a new identity and vision in focus the executive vice president for Projects and Procurements, Gunnar Myrebøe, clearly stated that it is important to Statoil that the suppliers take part in meeting the challenges the company is facing. This applies both to its growth ambitions and development of new technology.
”Statoil’s vision is crossing energy frontiers,” said Myrebøe. “In order to succeed in our projects and our day-to-day operation we depend completely on you.”
He referred to the fact that the competition for oil and gas deposits is tightening while the energy demand is rising. On the other hand the greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced to prevent further global warming.
”These aspects and the impact of the global economic crisis provide the parameter for our company’s activities,” said Myrebøe.
The executive vice president drew the suppliers’ attention to four large projects that illustrate the width of Statoil’s portfolio: Snøhvit, the Sheringham Shoal offshore wind turbines, Peregrino and Statfjord late life: “Our priorities will be to have access to resources, optimal execution, higher quality and contribute to a competitive supplies industry,” said Myrebøe.
