Sture Sivertsen (born April 16, 1966 in Levanger ) is a former Norwegian cross-country skier .

At the 1998 Olympic Games in Nagano he was able to win the Olympic victory with the Norwegian relay and thus make the defeat at the 1994 Olympic relay race in his own country forgotten. In 1994 in Lillehammer he won bronze over 50 kilometers in addition to the silver medal in the relay. In 1993 he was also world champion over 10 kilometers in classic technique at the World Ski Championships. There are also three other world championship titles with the relay.

In the FIS Cross-Country World Cup won Sivertsen a race in the 1992/93 season. In addition, he came second twice and third six times.
