The Norwegian Petroleum Institute (Template:Langx) is a Norwegian petroleum lobbying organization formed in 1970. Its purpose is to "attend to and promote the common interest of the [petroleum] industry".[1]
The petroleum companies Esso Norge, YX Energi Norge, Norske Shell, Statoil Norge, AGA AS, Castrol Norge, Yara Industrial, Nynas, Valvoline Oil and Progas are behind the Norwegian Petroleum Institute.[1] It also has ties with the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise.[2] Its board consists of Håvard Kjærstad (ESSO), Tage Kruse (YX), Lars Inge Lunde (Shell), Dag Roger Rinde (Statoil), Sven Borger Fiedler (Castrol) and secretary Inger-Lise M. Nøstvik.[3]
It has been criticized for manufacturing quasi-journalistic information and news, which was picked up by the Norwegian news media, and eventually had political impact.[2]
