The video “We talk about the earth – we should have been talking about the ocean” tells the story of the Norwegian oil and gas adventure and how this industry has changed Norwegian society. It shows how oil and gas has laid a foundation for further development of new industries and a robust welfare state for future generations. The original lecture was given at the ONS-2016 Conference (http://www.ons.no). The ONS conference is one of world’s largest oil and gas conferences with appr. 90.000 visitors.
The lecture was held at the session “Archives and history – analysing times of transition” hosted by The Norwegian Oil and Gas Archives and the Norwegian Petroleum Museum.
The main theme for the ONS-2016 conference was “Transition”. The original title of Johnsen’s lecture was “The Norwegian Petroleum History and Archives – Politics, Technology and Transition”. The video shows excerpts from this lecture, combined with records from The Norwegian Oil and Gas Archives.
