fields offshore Norway.
The contract has a period of up to two years valued at maximum NOK 1.8 billion,
with options to extend the work by as many as four years. The agreement starts
on June 1, 2014, following the expiration of an existing framework contract for
similar services.
"I'm very pleased that BP has chosen to continue working with us on the
Norwegian continental shelf," says Per Harald Kongelf, regional president for
Aker Solutions in Norway. "This is a testament to the quality of our deliveries
and the strength of our partnership with BP in Norway."
The agreement is for work on the fields Ula, Tambar, Hod, Skarv and Valhall. The
scope includes studies, maintenance and modification project work as well as
preparation work for decommissioning offshore Norway.
Aker Solutions has worked with BP in Norway for more than twenty years and
signed the first long-term framework agreement contract of this type with BP in
1999.
