Market Update

We are pleased to bring you the Conyers 2022 Norway Bulletin. Our annual publication underscores the importance of the Norwegian market to our Bermuda corporate practice.

We greatly value the friends and business associates we have in Norway, and were very pleased to be able to resume our visits to Norway in March 2022 after an enforced three-year hiatus.

Reflecting on the market over the past 18 months, there have been some significant developments that underscore the importance of the Oslo market for the offshore drilling and shipping industry, as well as the close connection between Bermuda and Norway.
