Equinor ASA (formerly Statoil and StatoilHydro) is a Norwegian state-owned multinational petroleum company headquartered in Stavanger and operating in 36 countries.[1]

Energy Web

Along with Shell Oil, TEPCO, Sempra, and other major environmental corporate polluters, Equinor co-founded Energy Web in 2017 ahead of the launch of its 2019 Energy Web blockchain and cryptocurrency token.[2]

Microsoft

In 2018, Microsoft joined several other companies to test the First Version of Energy Web's first blockchain app, EW Origin.[3]

Also in 2018, Equinor announced it had signed a cloud contract with Microsoft for its operations worth hundreds of millions of dollars.[4][5] Despite joint marketing of their partnership around carbon capture and storage,[6][7] Equinor's profits are primarily driven by oil and gas,[8], and the company is still seeking new oil & gas drilling licenses in 2022.[9].
