Aker Solutions and Total to Cooperate on Subsea Technology Development
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
February 16, 2016 - Aker Solutions and Total agreed to collaborate on research
and innovation to develop new cost-effective subsea field technology.
The initial four-year technical collaboration agreement will build on earlier
cooperation and bring both companies closer in developing technologies that will
reduce costs and increase value at subsea oil and gas fields. The partnership
will this year explore a wide range of issues, including further evolution of
subsea processing and compression systems to boost cost-efficiency of deepwater
gas production, development of electric subsea controls and optimization of
flow-measurement technologies. Further scope of the collaboration will be
defined over the next months.
"This joint effort reinforces our common interest in finding more effective
solutions to maximize value from subsea field developments," said Hervé Valla,
chief technology officer at Aker Solutions. "It allows us to work more closely
with Total to solve technical challenges faced by the industry today and to
reduce the time needed to bring subsea technology to the market."
Total has been a strategic customer of Aker Solutions for many years including
on subsea projects such as the Kaombo and Dalia developments in Angola and Moho
Nord in Congo-Brazzaville. The companies have worked closely on solving specific
project challenges and designing solutions to enable future developments. This
includes collaborating on subsea boosting solutions and subsea plant for
deepwater application as part of Total's deep offshore research and development
program.
