– A labor dispute in Norway’s oil and gas industry appears to be headed for an end. One of the country’s two labor unions for oil service workers says it has agreed to a wage deal with subcontractors, while the smaller Safe union says it has broken off talks and will face mandatory mediation later this year, Reuters reports. Members of Safe are not permitted to strike at this point, but could do so if the next round of talks also fails to bring agreement.
