Aker Solutions was 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 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.
“We are delighted to support BP in Angola, an important market for Aker Solutions,” commented Luis Araujo, CEO at Aker Solutions. “We have a strong record of successful delivery in Angola, having provided subsea support to key projects such as Dalia and Kaombo. We are now pleased to expand this offering to include topside maintenance, modifications and operations services in West Africa.”
According to Aker Solutions, this new contract will benefit from an extensive local training program that it 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.
The order will be booked in Q3 2018.
