Hah, funny story!

We pump up all that oil and salt it away in a monstrous pensions fund. It's stupid, really. I think it's both safer and more profitable to let most of it lie where it is a bit longer. Kinder to the world, too, flattens the plateau a bit (or slows the descent).

But of course, the norwegian government doesn't have a spine. I don't know if SV ever had it in their program to slow down extraction, but their coalition definitively has no such plans. I doubt you could find 100 norwegians today who know that we peaked six years ago.
