A simulator based experimental laboratory, HAMMLAB, is the division's important facility for testing and integrating control room solutions. HAMMLAB simulates oil and gas production at the Oseberg oilfield, as well as three different nuclear power plants. The division's main activities are research being performed for the international OECD Halden Reactor Project, in addition to bilateral projects for Norwegian and foreign industry.
