Negotiations between the union Safe and employers have collapsed, leading to a strike impacting Norwegian oil and gas production. 154 members of Safe, covered by the well services agreement, will walk off the job, effective Monday morning. This follows a successful agreement reached between Offshore Norge and Styrke, averting a wider industrial action. The strike specifically targets well services personnel. The potential impact on oil and gas output remains to be seen, but disruptions are anticipated. Further negotiations are expected to resolve the dispute and bring workers back to the platforms. The strike began at 5:00 AM local time on Monday.
