Statkraft-sjefen tjente mest

The Norwegian government released its proposal for the 2027 state budget on Wednesday this week. The Ministry of Industries' budget proposal includes a summary of top executives' salaries in state-owned companies under its jurisdiction. Other state-owned companies under different departments, such as Vy and Avinor, are examples of such entities.

Statkraft CEO Birgitte Ringstad Vartdal received the highest total compensation in 2025, amounting to 9.1 million kroner. Of this, 7.7 million kroner constituted her fixed salary. The overview does not cover Norwegian companies with partial state ownership, such as DNB and Equinor. Following Vartdal, the next five highest-paid executive directors of wholly-owned state companies are listed as follows: 2) Harald-Ingve Flagtvedt of Argentum Fondsinvesteringer - 7.1 million kroner in total compensation (5.5 million kroner in fixed salary).

3) Petter-Børre Furberg of Posten Bring - 7.1 million kroner in total compensation (6.7 million kroner in fixed salary). 4) Kristin Fejerskov Kragseth of Petoro - 6.5 million kroner in total compensation (5.6 million kroner in fixed salary). 5) Sturla Magnus of Mesta - 4.8 million kroner in total compensation (4.7 million kroner in fixed salary).
