Aker Solutions to Provide Brownfield Services for BP in Angola
Friday 5 October 2018
Aker Solutions has been awarded a five-year agreement to supply brownfield modifications, maintenance and operations support for BP's Greater Plutonio and PSVM fields offshore Angola.
The scope of work covers the supply of engineering, procurement, and construction services for brownfield projects on the floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels located at each field. This includes support for upgrades to process, chemical and marine support systems, as well as refurbishment of ageing piping and equipment.
This new contract will benefit from an extensive local training program that Aker Solutions has been driving, developing strong in-country engineering competence for both subsea lifecycle services and topside maintenance, modifications and operations. This ongoing commitment will help secure vital skills for the future of the energy industry in Angola.
Aker Solutions has been working in Angola since 1998 and currently has more than 270 employees in Luanda.
The order will be booked in the third quarter 2018.
