International and national industrial policy
A progressive industrial policy will give positive results
The Norwegian-controlled fleet is one of the world’s largest and most modern. Norway also has major market shares within associated services, such as classification, financing and research.
As one of the world’s leading shipping nations, Norway acts as a driving force for promoting high-quality shipping internationally. Shipowners operate in an international market, in free competition, and the aim is to ensure that as much business as possible is owned and operated from Norway. This is conditional on Norway having internationally competitive, predictable and stable framework conditions for shipping and offshore contracting.
