From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Norwegian continental shelf is the continental shelf over which Norway exercises sovereign rights as defined by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.[clarification needed] It is rich in petroleum and gas and it is the base of the so-called petroleum economy of Norway.
The area of the shelf is four times the area of Norway mainland and constitutes about one-third of the Europe continental shelf.[1]
