The Norwegian Ocean Industry Authority (Norwegian: Havindustritilsynet) is a Norwegian governmental supervisory authority[1] under the Norwegian Ministry of Labour and Social Inclusion.[citation needed] The authority has regulatory responsibility for safety, emergency preparedness and the working environment in petroleum-industry activities in Norway, both on land and offshore.[citation needed] The first director was Magne Ognedal,[2] and since 2013 Anne Myhrvold.[3]
The PSA was established on 1 January 2004 as an independent, governmental supervisory body, partitioned from the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate.[citation needed] Its headquarters are located in Stavanger. In 2023, it was announced that it would change its name to the Norwegian Ocean Industry Authority effective 1 January 2024.[4]
