Export Control and Sanctions Compliance

Drilling and well equipment can be subject to export controls and sanctions. Kronborr is committed to trading only in ways that comply with the law. This page explains how we do that and what we ask of our customers.

Last updated 1 January 2026

1. Our Commitment

Kronborr will not supply products or services to any person, entity, country or end use where doing so would breach applicable export control or sanctions laws, or where we have reason to believe our products would be diverted to such a destination or use. This applies however attractive the order.

2. Rules We Follow

  • European Union restrictive measures (sanctions), including Council Regulation (EU) No 833/2014, which restricts the supply of certain oil and gas exploration and production equipment and technology.
  • The EU Dual-Use Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2021/821) and its Swedish implementation, administered by the Inspectorate of Strategic Products (Inspektionen för strategiska produkter, ISP).
  • United Nations Security Council sanctions as implemented in the EU.
  • Where they apply to a transaction, the export control and sanctions laws of other countries, such as the United Kingdom and the United States.

3. How We Screen

  1. Customer screening: we check customers, end users, consignees and relevant intermediaries against applicable sanctions lists before quoting or accepting an order.
  2. Ownership checks: where needed, we identify the owners of the companies involved, because sanctions can apply to companies owned or controlled by listed persons.
  3. Destination and end-use review: we review the country of final destination and the intended use, and ask for an end-use statement where the product, destination or circumstances call for it.
  4. Product classification: we check whether a product is listed or restricted for the destination and apply for any required licence before delivery.
  5. Red flag review: unusual routing, reluctance to share end-use information, payment from unrelated third parties or requests that do not fit the stated application are investigated before we proceed.

4. What We Ask of Customers

  • Provide accurate information about the end user, final destination and intended use of the products.
  • Sign an end-use statement when we ask for one.
  • Do not re-export, resell or transfer our products in breach of applicable laws.
  • Tell us promptly if the end user, destination or use changes.

5. Our Rights

We may decline an enquiry, refuse an order, suspend delivery or cancel a contract without liability where compliance requires it, as set out in our Terms and Conditions of Sale. Delivery times may depend on licensing decisions by the authorities.

6. Records

We keep records of our screening, end-use statements and licences for the periods required by law.
