The agreement involves the delivery of technical personnel into Head Energy\u2019s contract with V\u00e5r Energi and covers projects and operations in the Barents Sea, the Norwegian Sea, and the North Sea.\n\nThe contract runs for five years, with options that may extend the period to a total of up to eleven years. For Polarkonsult, this is one of the most long-term and strategically important personnel agreements the company has entered into.\n<div><blockquote>\u201cThis is a milestone for us. We have worked purposefully to build expertise and capacity within energy, and this agreement demonstrates that a technical professional environment from Northern Norway is fully on par with the largest players in the country. The collaboration with Head Energy provides us with a solid entry into new projects, and we look forward to supporting V\u00e5r Energi\u2019s needs in the years ahead,\u201d says Thomas Myhre, Managing Director of Polarkonsult.<\/div>\n<div><\/div><\/blockquote>\nSeveral industry analyses indicate that the Norwegian continental shelf is entering a period of high activity from 2026. Investment figures for oil and gas in 2026 point to continued strong activity within project development, modifications, and maintenance. This sends clear signals that the demand for technical expertise will remain high.\n<blockquote>\u201cWe see a development where the shelf is entering an active period. The need for expertise within modifications, operations, and maintenance is increasing, and this agreement positions us well to take part in that development. It provides both predictability and an opportunity to further build our energy department,\u201d says Randi Rokkerud, Head of the Energy Department at Polarkonsult.<\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-23be98f elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"23be98f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-12014 lazyload\" alt=\"\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.polarkonsult.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Randi-Kvernmo-Polarkonsult-Head-of-Energy-18x12.jpg 18w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2560px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2560\/1707;\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Randi Kvernmo Rokkerud, Head of Energy Division.
