Where the crew lives
The Undheim data centre sits on Høg-Jæren in Time municipality, east of Nærbø and Bryne. The towns on Jæren lie close together: from Nærbø, Bryne, Ålgård and Klepp stasjon the drive to the site is under half an hour. The drive times in the list below are estimated with OpenStreetMap, without traffic, rush hour or winter conditions.
Nærbø is about 11 minutes away, Bryne 15 and Ålgård 17. Bryne is the largest town in Time, with shops, places to eat and gyms within walking distance of many homes. Nærbø and Ålgård are smaller and quieter, with a short drive to both the site and the outdoors. Klepp stasjon, about 23 minutes away, is an option when little is available closer.
A project crew needs several flats to rent in Bryne or the villages nearby, ideally in the same area, so they can drive in together and share work vans. We search and map homes from the site address and plan around your shifts, your vehicles and how long you stay.
For crews who fly in on rotation, Stavanger Airport Sola is about 42 minutes from the site, estimated with OpenStreetMap without traffic. We factor in the drive to Sola when we assess homes for crews who rotate often.

Hotel, site cabins or apartments at Undheim?
The Undheim data centre is planned for completion in 2028, so many crews will stay on Jæren for a long time. Over that span, life after the shift counts for more than the first few nights. The articles below compare site cabins with housing and explain what Norwegian rules require when an employer provides accommodation.
Questions & answers
What companies ask.
Where is the shortest commute to the Undheim site?
Nærbø is closest at about 11 minutes by car, followed by Bryne at 15 and Ålgård at 17 minutes, estimated with OpenStreetMap without traffic. All three keep the working day short, so we choose between them based on what is available and where the crew prefers to live.
Can the crew live in Sandnes or Stavanger instead?
Yes, but expect about 30 minutes from Sandnes town centre and 44 minutes from Stavanger city centre each way, estimated with OpenStreetMap without traffic. For crews on long shifts we recommend Nærbø, Bryne or Ålgård instead.
How do you plan the homes around shift work?
We split the crew across the homes based on the shift plan you send us. Everyone has their own bedroom, so night workers can sleep undisturbed during the day.
Is there parking for work vans at the homes?
We state the parking for each home before you decide, including space for vans. In Nærbø, Bryne and Ålgård a home more often comes with its own parking than in central Sandnes or Stavanger.
Where does the crew wash their workwear?
Workwear is washed at home in each apartment. If you have specific rules for washing protective clothing, we agree on them with you before the crew moves in.
What if the crew changes size or the project is extended?
We look for more homes in the same area when the crew grows. If the work runs longer, we ask the landlords to extend the leases and look for new homes where needed. A lease is signed for each home, with a notice period matched to the length of the project.
