– The end date is either when the Norwegian continental shelf runs out, or when the world no longer wants oil, says FpU leader Simen Velle. He also says that he hopes we get through a green shift as quickly as possible, because it is absolutely necessary – But the last drop of oil that is sold on the global market should come from here, he insists. Simen Velle hopes for a green shift as quickly as possible, but at the same time says “drill, baby, drill”.

Far from the center of Stavanger, out in the North Sea, oil is also on the agenda. Several central youth politicians gathered at the Johan Sverdrup field to learn about how oil production takes place on the Norwegian continental shelf. Johan Sverdrup is an oil and gas field in the North Sea and lies 140 kilometers west of Stavanger. Photo: Ole Andreas Bø Disagreement about the oil future Perhaps these will govern Norwegian oil policy in the years to come. Maybe they should sit together in government. But the youth parties are far from each other on the issue of Norway’s oil future. With the exception of Unge Høgre and FpU, none of the youth parties state in their party programs that they want more exploration activity on the Norwegian continental shelf. This is what the youth party thinks about exploration activity for oil in the years ahead: Ole Andreas Bø AUF (The starting point is the youth party’s party programme). Have a controlled liquidation of the petroleum industry with full liquidation in 2035. Will not allow new exploration and test drilling. Ole Andreas Bø Senterungdommen Set up an energy commission to deal with the gradual tapering off of Norwegian oil and gas production. Stop exploration for new oil and gas fields. Ole Andreas Bø Unge Høgre The oil and gas industry must be maintained in Norway as long as the market asks for oil and gas. Norway has a special responsibility for supplying Europe with oil and gas, and thus the development of profitable fields must continue. Ole Andreas Bø Framstegpartet’s Ungdom (FpU) Will continue exploration for Norwegian oil and gas. Will allow oil drilling in Lofoten, Vesterålen and Senja. Ole Andreas Bø Unge Venstre Electrify existing oil fields on the NCS or stop production where appropriate. Stop the awarding of new exploration licenses on the NCS Ole Andreas Bø Kristeleg Folkepartis Ungdom (KrFU) Have a predictable phasing out of the oil fields that are already in use. Have a complete halt to exploration for new oil fields on the Norwegian continental shelf. Ole Andreas Bø Socialist Youth (SU) Discontinue the oil industry. Stop the search for new oil immediately. No new concessions. news Grønn UngdomWants to wind down the industry by 2040. Stop searching for new fields. Norwegian oil production will fall The production of oil and gas will decline in the coming years, according to a report presented by the Norwegian Continental Shelf Directorate last week. More exploration activity is the only way to slow down the fall, says the Norwegian Continental Shelf Directorate. Oda Røhme Sivertsen in Unge Høgre. Photo: Ole Andreas Bø / news – We want to continue with oil until it is no longer profitable, so a while longer, says deputy manager of Unge Høgre, Oda Røhme Sivertsen. While AUF’s demand to the Labor Party is to put an end to exploration for oil and gas. – Because we have found oil and gas that can last for the next hundred years, says Gaute Børstad Skjervø, deputy head of AUF. – We must move on, and then we should not look for new oil and gas fields, says Gaute Børstad Skjærvø in AUF. Photo: Ole Andreas Bø / news – We are positive to pick up from what we have already found, but want to refine the search. We have oil in the area we are extracting from today, for a long time to come, says Hadle Bjuland in KrFU. Andreas Aukland from Grøn Ungdom and Audun Hammer Hovda from Socialist Youth agree. – It is overtime that we stop looking for more oil if we are to achieve the ambitions we have and the goals we have set in international climate negotiations, says Hammer Hovda. – Equinor has a plan to look for new fields, largely financed by the state, which will last until 2090. It is financially irresponsible, says Aukland. Andreas Aukland in Green Youth wants to stop the oil exploration. Photo: Ole Andreas Bø / news – Have to agree to some concessions Even with two parents who work in the oil industry, Unge Vestre leader Ane Breivik is also ready in the shop. – We must stop the search for more oil and gas, as both the UN Secretary-General, the International Energy Agency, the world’s leading social economists, and climate and environmental researchers agree. A bourgeois government cooperation for the Left means concessions from the cooperation party. Ane Breivik in Unge Venstre and Simen Velle disagree on whether Norway should stop oil exploration. Photo: Ole Andreas Bø / news – What I expect from civil government cooperation is to stop all further oil exploration. Hence the stoppage in TFO, says Breivik. – So if we are going to achieve something on the civic side, given that we are constantly approaching the 2030s, the FRP and Høgre will probably have to agree to some concessions when it comes to oil policy, she concludes. – There are several of your youth politician colleagues who say that now we have to stop looking. What do you say? – I say “drill, baby, drill”, concludes Velle. William Jobling / news Arbeidarpartiet (Ap) (The starting point is the party program ahead of the parliamentary election in 2021). Ap will continue to pump oil, but halve emissions from production by 2030. They have zero emissions as their goal. The ice rink, the northernmost limit for oil operations, will be a little further south than today. Frode Fjerdingstad Høgre (H)Høgre wants to restructure, not liquidate, the oil and gas industry, and will continue to search for oil. Half of the emissions from the industry must be cut within ten years. The party believes that lower taxes can lead to more competition for production. In addition, the party will investigate whether Lofoten, Vesterålen and Senja can be opened up for the extraction of oil and gas. news Framstegspartiet (Frp) Frp wants to develop the oil industry and open up operations in several areas in the north, especially in the area in the Barents Sea that borders Russia. They will also investigate whether oil can be pumped up in Lofoten, Vesterålen and Senja as long as it is taken compliance with strict environmental requirements. NTB Center Party (Sp) The Center Party will open up new oil fields as long as the climate and environment are taken into account. They will not open for oil extraction in the sea area outside Lofoten, Vesterålen and Senja, the Møreblocks or in the vicinity of the ice edge. All oil platforms must be emission-free by 2040. William Jobling / news Sosialistisk Venstreparti SV)SV will stop all exploration for oil. Oil platforms that already exist will be powered by offshore wind. The party will stop supporting the oil industry with money and will make it more expensive to extract oil, so that more will be lying underground. NTB Venstre (V)Venstre will not open new oil fields. The oil platforms that already exist will be powered. The Liberals also want to remove the good tax arrangements for the oil companies, so that they get less support from the state. NTB Christian People’s Party (KrF) KrF does not want to search for oil in new areas, but is open to expanding those that already exist. When new oil platforms are built, these must run on current. The party will also make an agreement with other oil countries to pump less oil. NTB scanpix The Green Party (MDG) The MDG will not open new oil fields, and those that already exist will not be expanded. All economic advantages enjoyed by the oil industry must be abolished, and the party will work for a global halt to all oil operations in the Arctic. Torbjørn Brovold / news Raudt (R) Raudt will stop all exploration for oil and will refrain from developing fields that are already approved. The state must take responsibility for ensuring that the downsizing does not lead to job losses. Hello! Welcome to dialogue at news.
