Equinor (OB:EQNR)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Equinor ASA is an energy company involved in the exploration, production, transportation, refining, and marketing of petroleum and other forms of energy both in Norway and internationally, with a market cap of NOK642.22 billion.

Operations: Equinor ASA generates its revenue from several segments, including Exploration & Production Norway ($35.05 billion), Marketing, Midstream & Processing ($105.57 billion), Exploration & Production USA ($4.14 billion), Exploration & Production International excluding the USA ($5.83 billion), and Renewables ($0.10 billion).

Dividend Yield: 5.8%

Equinor has demonstrated a commitment to dividends, with recent affirmations of a US$0.37 per share payout for the first two quarters of 2025. The dividend is well-covered by both earnings and cash flows, maintaining payout ratios around 48% and 49.7%, respectively. However, despite past increases in dividend payments over the last decade, Equinor's dividends have been volatile and unreliable at times. Additionally, its current yield of 5.78% is below Norway's top quartile dividend payers' average.

Sea1 Offshore (OB:SEA1)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Sea1 Offshore Inc., along with its subsidiaries, owns and operates offshore support vessels for the offshore energy service industry, with a market cap of NOK3.53 billion.

Dividend Yield: 18.8%

Sea1 Offshore's dividend yield of 18.81% ranks it among the top 25% of Norwegian dividend payers, though its reliability is questionable due to recent volatility and a short payment history. Despite trading at a significant discount to estimated fair value and having dividends covered by earnings (payout ratio: 39.9%) and cash flows (cash payout ratio: 78.4%), the company faces challenges with declining earnings, reduced profit margins, and substantial debt levels impacting financial stability.
