US-listed Equinor stock also benefits

Analyst view: Goldman Sachs raises target to 350 NOK
On the analyst side, according to MarketScreener on September 10, 2026, Goldman Sachs raised its price target for Equinor to 350 NOK from 320 NOK and maintained its sell rating, signaling that at current levels above NOK 400 the investment bank sees limited upside and potential downside.
The new 350 NOK target now sits below the Oslo Bors closing price of NOK 413.80 as of September 10, 2026, implying that Goldman Sachs’s updated view is roughly 15.4% lower than the latest market price and giving investors a clear quantified benchmark for how cautious this particular analyst house remains despite the company’s strong share price performance.
Operational context and sector exposure
Operationally, Equinor remains a major player in global oil and gas projects, including offshore developments, and its exposure to European gas prices has contributed to recent share price strength, as emphasized in the reporting by DN on September 10, 2026.
In addition, sector news such as the oil discovery in Angola’s Block 17 operated by TotalEnergies, where Equinor holds a 22.16% stake according to Investing.com on September 10, 2026, underscores the company’s continued involvement in major upstream projects that can influence long-term production and cash flows.
