- Kongsberg Maritime will carry out front-end engineering and design for the Wisting FPSO safety and automation system.
- The broader technology package remains conditional on Wisting reaching the execution phase.
- Equinor lists November 13 as the Oslo ex-dividend date and February 3, 2027 for its next results.
Equinor's Wisting development moved into a new engineering phase after Kongsberg Maritime won a contract for the planned floating production, storage and offloading vessel's safety and automation system. The award was announced by Kongsberg Maritime on November 6, 2026.
Engineering comes before execution
Kongsberg's initial mandate covers front-end engineering and design, or FEED, for the Wisting FPSO's Safety and Automation System. The company will work with Equinor and other suppliers to refine a safe, efficient and sanctionable development concept for the Barents Sea project.
The initial award does not establish a final investment decision, production start or full construction order. If Wisting advances into execution, Kongsberg's potential scope would extend to process control, safety systems, digital infrastructure and cyber security across the vessel's lifecycle. The value and timetable of the potential follow-on work were not disclosed.
