Equinor’s new Senior VP for upstream sector joins OEUK Board

Camilla Salthe, Equinor’s Senior Vice President of Exploration & Production International U.K. is the latest industry leader to join the Board at Offshore Energies U.K. (OEUK) as the sector focuses on delivering homegrown, cleaner energies to the U.K.

As Senior Vice President for Equinor’s U.K. and Ireland upstream operations and chair of the board of both Equinor U.K. Ltd. and Equinor Production Ltd, Camilla is based at Equinor’s U.K. operations headquarters in Aberdeen, where she leads the U.K. part of the Exploration Production International (EPI) organization, supporting Equinor’s U.K. upstream activities. These include producing oil and gas from the Mariner and Buzzard fields, the Rosebank development, and cross U.K.-Norwegian border developments.

As a reliable energy partner to the U.K. for 40 years, Equinor has been providing a stable supply of oil and gas, while developing the U.K.’s offshore wind industry, and pioneering solutions to decarbonize the U.K. economy.

“I’m delighted to join the OEUK board and to help champion the industry as we navigate the journey to net zero,” said Camilla Salthe, senior vice president upstream at Equinor U.K. “Our sector is still facing many challenges and our continued efforts to deliver safe, reliable and affordable energy remains our top priority, as Equinor continues to enhance delivery through new technology and collaboration. I look forward to being part of the board, working alongside OEUK’s leadership team as they seek to deliver tangible results for the sector.”

“Camilla’s expertise in leadership roles in areas including petroleum technology and business development and Equinor’s track record for pioneering solutions for low carbon energy alternatives will be a great asset to the OEUK Board,” added David Whitehouse, OEUK’s Chief Executive. “The expertise of the people in our industry is key to delivering a successful energy transition at pace, while maintaining the country’s energy security and contributing significantly to the U.K. economy.”
