The company has welcomed several new team members and continues to grow. With greater capacity, Omega 365 Protek can now take on more projects and provide expertise in an increasing number of areas. 

“Change takes time, but we’re seeing things fall into place. We’ve made some important adjustments and developed new strategies to make the most of the opportunities ahead. Right now, our focus is on building a solid foundation—not just for growth, but for creating a good professional environment where team members can develop,” says Halsnes. 

Tailored approach

As part of Omega 365 Consulting, Omega 365 Protek offers its own range of services. The company provides engineering and consultancy expertise in the oil and gas industry, process industry, energy sector, and aquaculture. Established in 1991, the company has specialized in advisory engineering services for offshore, land-based, and process industries. 

“We primarily support land-based industries, focusing on modifications and maintenance projects. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach here—our software are tailored to each project, which is something our team members really appreciate,” says Halsnes. 

She also highlights the benefits of Omega 365’s project execution system, which helps ensure quality and efficiency in Protek’s projects. 

“The system gathers all knowledge, experience, and resources in one place. This makes collaboration easier, both internally and with customers, partners, and suppliers. By working on a shared platform, we can improve quality, streamline project execution, and ensure a more structured approach,” Halsnes explains. 

Local and global ambitions 

With offices in Haugesund and Sauda, Omega 365 Protek has a strong local presence while delivering services to a broader market. 

“For us, it’s important to contribute to the local community. Our goal is to create attractive workplaces, offer engaging projects, and provide opportunities for professionals to stay in or return to their hometowns. Strengthening expertise in our region is something we care about,” Halsnes says. 

She encourages companies in the area to take advantage of local services. 

“By supporting local businesses and working together to develop expertise, we can create growth, attract skilled people, and deliver high-quality software. A strong local network helps us find the best solutions, and there’s great potential to build the expertise and resources needed in the industry,” she says, adding that many professionals are also interested in returning to the region. 

A focus on quality 

Halsnes refers to Omega 365’s slogan: ‘Big enough to deliver, small enough to care.’

“At Protek, we want to be big enough to take on demanding projects while staying small enough to keep close relationships with our customers. Our strength is in being flexible, maintaining high quality, and having strong local ties. We work in a way that allows us to quickly adapt to customer needs while developing specialized expertise. With the Omega name behind us, quality is always a priority. 2025 is shaping up to be an interesting year, and we’re looking forward to what’s ahead,” she says.
