The installation of the 255-km HVAC cable in Norway is progressing well. The project, led by NKT, aims to connect the Yggdrasil offshore oil and gas field to the Norwegian coast, ensuring a sustainable, low-emission energy supply.
HVAC cable distribution and installation
The cable-laying vessel NKT Victoria successfully completed the first installation campaign in the Norwegian fjords and the North Sea, a crucial step in the development of this important project.

The installation’s progress is the result of close collaboration between Equinor , which participated in the design and production of the cables, and Aker BP , the main operator of the Yggdrasil development on the Norwegian continental shelf. Also participating in the project is Orlean Upstream Norway , which acts as a licensing partner.
