21 August 2013 - Aker Solutions won a contract from Statoil to conduct an
extended concept study for the floater for the Johan Castberg oilfield
development in the Barents Sea. The contract, worth NOK 250 million, includes
options for further work.
"This is an exciting opportunity to take part in the development of a major new
oil field in northern Norway," says Per Harald Kongelf, regional president for
Norway at Aker Solutions.
