Equinor Reports Record Net Income of $4.84 Billion for Q2 2026
Norwegian energy company Equinor reported a significant increase in net income to $4.84 billion during the second quarter of 2026, representing a year-over-year growth of 267%. This surge was driven by higher global liquid and European gas prices, despite lower US gas prices partially offsetting gains. The company's total revenues rose by 40% YoY to $35.18 billion. Equinor’s production increased by 3%, reaching 2.165 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (mboe/d), supported by new fields and ongoing operations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The company also made strategic decisions, including a final investment decision for the Greater PAJ project in Angola and exploration activities across ten wells. Equinor's cash flow from operations after taxes rose 296% to $7.68 billion compared to the same period last year. CEO Anders Opedal highlighted strong performance on financial results, portfolio strengthening through strategic transactions, and a commitment to delivering reliable energy in an uncertain global environment.
