Norway

Oil and natural gas export revenues stand at almost 50% of Norway’s total export revenue. In fact, over 5,000 wells have been drilled in the last sixty years. These statistics alone show the need that Norway has for many highly trained maritime workers.

When you factor in all other maritime industry in the region, the need is even greater.
