FJORD BASE AS

Overview

Fjord Base AS operates a petroleum and offshore supply base in Kinn, Vestland, and has rapidly electrified its entire quayside infrastructure by obtaining five shore power (landstrøm) concessions within a single fortnight in August 2026. The coordinated rollout across quays A/F, B, C, D, and E signals a deliberate decarbonisation strategy for the facility, enabling docked vessels to draw grid power instead of running onboard engines. The company has no grid queue reservations, suggesting the shore power installations are supplied through existing grid connections rather than requiring new capacity reservations.

Active Regions

Strategic Focus

Fjord Base AS is focused exclusively on port electrification at its offshore supply base in Kinn. By equipping all operational quays with shore power infrastructure, the company is positioning the base to offer low-emission berths to the offshore and maritime industry — likely in response to increasing regulatory and customer pressure to reduce port-related emissions from the Norwegian petroleum supply chain.

Recent Activity

Highly active in August 2026: all five shore power concession applications were filed on 6 August 2026 and all five concessions were granted by NVE on 21 August 2026, completing a comprehensive and rapid port electrification programme across the entire Fjord Base quayside in Kinn.
