Skanska to build Statoil's new office in Bergen, Norway, for about SEK
1.5 billion

Skanska has received the assignment to construct Statoil's new office in
Bergen, Norway. The contract totals NOK 1.3 billion, about SEK 1.5
billion, which will be included in order bookings for the third quarter.

The project comprises 55,000 square meters of new office space in
Sandsli, Bergen, dimensioned for 1,100 workplaces. The office building
will also house technical rooms, parking facilities and goods
arrival/storage.

“The project for Statoil in Sandsli is one of the largest individual
construction contracts we have ever received. We have put one of our
best teams in charge of the project and they are highly motivated to do
their utmost. I would like to thank Statoil for its confidence and I'm
sure that the project will be a success for all involved parties,” says
Petter Eiken, President of Skanska Norway.

Skanska will be implementing the project in accordance with Skanska's
Green Workplace concept. The objective is to reduce energy consumption
for lighting and heating in the construction phase. In addition,
environmental demands will be placed on vehicles and chemical products.

Construction work will commence in July and is estimated to continue
until January 2014. At most, about 300 people will be involved in the
project.

The unit has approximately 4,200 employees. In 2010, Skanska Norway
reported revenue of about SEK 11 billion. In Norway, Skanska is also
