Stavanger

Idea: The city is together with Sandnes Norway’s third-largest city. The first traces of settlement in the Stavanger region come from the time when the ice retreated during the last ice age about 10,000 years ago. The city is today the Norwegian oil capital, something that has resulted in the city now being very international, and that the Norwegian Oil Museum has been established in the port. The Nordic region’s largest company, Statoil, is headquartered in Stavanger. • “S, t, a” blue = Harbor, fishing and the sea • “n, g” green = the parks in the city and the surrounding forests • “a” red = tourism and entertainment • “v” grey = concrete the foundation of the oil tower “Troll- A” out in the Atlantic.
