Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Viktor Zubkov, who is in Norway on a working visit, will meet with the country's premier, Jens Stoltenberg, to discuss cooperation.
Zubkov and Norwegian Trade and Industry Minister Trond Giske will hold a meeting of the bilateral commission on economic, industrial, scientific and technological cooperation.
A declaration on partnership for modernization, as well as a plan to intensify border interaction will be signed following the talks.
A Russian government source said efforts should be made to further increase the $2.1 billion bilateral trade in 2010 despite its 12% growth on 2009.
Documents to be signed during the visit will expand the investment, trade and economic elements of Russian-Norwegian partnership, whose key directions were defined in a joint statement by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Stoltenberg during Medvedev's visit to Norway in April 2010.
