At the same time, we are delivering focused growth in our international oil and gas portfolio and building our integrated power business, now focusing on the execution of already-sanctioned projects.” “In 2026, we expect around 3 percent production growth, up from record levels in 2025. We are taking firm actions to strengthen free cash flow, remain robust towards lower prices and maintain competitive capital distribution.” Strong production Equinor had high production in the fourth quarter, with a total equity production of 2,198 mboe per day, up 6% from 2,072 mboe per day in the same quarter last year. For the full year, the production reached a record high of 2,137 mboe per day, a 3.4% increase from the year before. On the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS), the production in the quarter was high with a 5% increase compared to the same quarter in 2024. New fields, such as Johan Castberg and Halten East, delivered substantial contributions, along with new wells. This offset impact from unplanned maintenance at Johan Castberg. For the full year, production was up by 2% in 2025 compared to 2024. The acquisition of additional interests in US onshore gas assets in late 2024 and new wells on stream, resulted in strong production from the E&P USA segment in the fourth quarter and full year of 2025, compared to the year before. The exits from Nigeria and Azerbaijan in 2024, along with a production stop and sale of a 40% operated interest in the Peregrino field in Brazil in the fourth quarter of 2025, resulted in lower production in E&P International in the quarter and full year of 2025. Production from new wells in Argentina and Angola contributed positively to the results. Other important contributions were the establishment of the Adura joint venture with Shell in the UK and the Bacalhau field in Brazil coming on
