We are working on crossing challenging fjords
Construction is well underway!
08.04.2019
Cost-efficient, safe and high-tech bridges and tunnels
We are developing technology for the whole of
Norway – and beyond!

New solutions and new competence
How will we make it happen
● Development of new technology and more knowledge
– Five highly challenging fjord crossings (2-5 km wide)
– Utilise experience from offshore technology development and qualification
– Studying wind/waves/current, new constructions, driver experience, sustainability, contracts…
● Building competence
– More than 50 PhDs ongoing with the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU),
Chalmers technical university, the University of Stavanger (UiS) and others (including post.docs)
– Berkeley and Iowa (USA), UCL (UK), ETH (CH), TU Delft (NL), DTU (DK) and more (current
application, MIT)
● Involving the industry
– More than 40 different private companies have been involved in the development related to the
large fjord crossings
– Seminars held to involve and update the industry on the E39 project regularly (often online!)

From research to innovation
Lessons learned - we use the results in the projects
● We have already made savings for almost two Billion US$
● Calculations on the extreme bridges/tunnels (safety, cost)
● - wind/wave loads for optimizing structures
– Ship collision, load impacts are crucial
– Driver experiences (safety: movement,
perception/safety: lighting in tunnels) Photos from Ellingsen, NPRA
In contracting more efficiently
– Early involvement, use knowledge from
contractors

● Environment/Sustainability

Energy efficient and climate neutral?
Rogfast Pluss and ELinGO
● Approximately 140 suggestions on how to
make the E39 energy neutral and
environmentally friendly.
● 42 suggestions have been included in the
minimum cost contracts.
● ELinGO has calculated that electrifying 5% of
the total road would save 50 % of the energy
● How to electrify?
– Induction?
– Panthograph?
– Embedded in the road? Picture from NPRA
● Heavy freight – new projects involving the
owners of the goods/transport sector
08/04/2019
A total of 75 PhDs/Post.docs are ongoing/finished, 15-45 new in 2019
Knowledge reduces the cost!

contribute to the UN
