Official statistics since 1876

Statistics Norway has uncovered an error in the consumer price index (CPI) for October, published on 10 November 2025. The effect of a new electricity support scheme was miscalculated, leading to an overestimation of headline inflation.

Companies’ latest investment estimates for 2025 within oil and gas, manufacturing, mining and quarrying and electricity supply indicate an increase in 2025. Early estimates indicate that the growth will be moderate in 2026. It is oil and gas and electricity supply that contribute most to the growth in 2025.

Total investments in oil and gas activity in 2026, including pipeline transportation, are estimated at NOK 249 billion. This is NOK 19 billion more than estimated in the previous quarter. The estimate for 2025 is now NOK 275 billion.
