SDFI values of 865 billion kroner
SDØE-verdier til 865 milliarder kroner
- The report illustrates the substantial values that the State’s direct ownership in the petroleum sector represents.

The annual cash flow from the SDFI portfolio constitutes a major contribution to the Government Pension Fund – Global, says the Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Terje Riis-Johansen.
De årlige inntektene fra SDØE-porteføljen gir betydelige tilskudd til Statens pensjonsfond – Utland, sier olje- og energiminister Terje Riis-Johansen.
This increase is mainly explained by higher estimates of future oil and gas prices.
Økningen skyldes i hovedsak høyere anslag for fremtidige olje- og gasspriser.
Over the same period there has been a significant increase in costs on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
Samtidig har det i samme periode vært en markant kostnadsvekst på norsk sokkel.
The valuation of the assets has been undertaken with the price scenarios used in the 2008 Revised National Budget submission and in the 2010 Revised National Budget submission.
I analysen har Wood Mackenzie brukt prisforutsetningene fra Revidert nasjonalbudsjett for 2008 og Revidert nasjonalbudsjett for 2010.
The valuation of the SDFI-portfolio is part of the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy’s follow-up of the SDFI and Petoro AS.

Norway critical to the EU’s proposed ban on trade in seal products
Norge kritisk til EU-forslag om handelsforbud med sel
Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre believes the proposed ban could affect Norway unfairly.
Utenriksminister Jonas Gahr Støre mener et slikt forbud vil ramme Norge på urimelig måte.
Norwegian sealing takes a sustainable and modern approach to harvesting marine resources.
Norsk selfangst representerer en bærekraftig og fremtidsrettet høsting av havets ressurser.
We expect the EU to take due account of the scientific basis for Norwegian sealing.
Vi forventer at EU tar på alvor det vitenskapelige fundamentet for norsk fangst.
The European Commission’s own impact assessment describes Norwegian sealing methods as fully acceptable.
Europakommisjonens egen konsekvensutredning karakteriserer de norske fangstmetodene som fullt ut akseptable.
The seal hunt is supervised by official inspectors, and the hunters have to pass annual shooting tests.
Hver avliving av en sel overvåkes av veterinær, og skytterne må avlegge årlige jaktprøver.
Norwegian sealing is probably the most regulated and best controlled form of hunting practised anywhere in the world.
Norsk selfangst er sannsynligvis den mest regulerte og den mest kontrollerte jakt av ville dyr som utøves noe sted i verden.
“We should be able to expect our closest partner to engage in active and mutually binding cooperation on the management of marine resources.
- Vi må kunne forvente et aktivt og gjensidig forpliktende samarbeid om forvaltning av marine ressurser fra vår nærmeste samarbeidspartner.
In order to safeguard Norwegian interests, we have therefore informed the EU that we will request consultations under the WTO Dispute Settlement Mechanism if the EU introduces an extensive ban”, Mr Støre adds.
For å sikre norske interesser, har vi derfor informert EU om at Norge vil be om konsultasjoner i WTO dersom EU innfører et omfattende forbud, sier Støre.

The Norwegian Seamen’s Church is not quite like other churches.
Sjømannskirken er ikke helt som andre kirker.
You can make a free phone call home to Norway, sign up for an advanced Norwegian course, read Norwegian newspapers, and much more.

So, to all of you – at home and abroad – I hereby congratulate the Norwegian Seamen’s Church in New York on its 130th anniversary.
Så derfor, til dere alle ”ute og hjemme”: Jeg gratulerer Sjømannskirken i New York med 130 år!
130 years as a stout rope, perhaps for some even as a lifebuoy.
130 år som en tjukk trosse, kanskje også som en redningsbøye for noen.
The history of the church takes us back to the summer and autumn of 1878.
Vi skal altså helt tilbake til sommeren og høsten 1878.
