The Norwegian Coastal Administration has its head office in Oslo and is tasked with ensuring safe and efficient traffic along Norway's coastline. This includes responsibility for national preparedness against acute pollution, as well as handling mercury in wrecks. The Norwegian Coastal Administration is also working on deepening waterways and harbours, which is essential for maintaining good navigation conditions for ship traffic.
In addition to its operational tasks, the Norwegian Coastal Administration offers digital services, such as ordering a pilot. They also organize the Coastal and Harbor Conference, which brings together players from maritime industries to discuss current topics. One of the unique resources the Norwegian Coastal Administration has available is a 3D model of Blücher, which can be explored by interested parties. The Norwegian Coastal Agency also has a focus on ISPS security and handling objectionable conditions, which underlines their role in maintaining security along the coast.
