Aker Solutions signs contract with Petrobras to provide subsea lifecycle services.

For this reason, the new contract is a continuation of the partnerships between Aker Solutions and Petrobras.
Marie Peralta, Executive Vice President and Head of Aker Solutions’ subsea business, underlines her satisfaction.
“We look forward to continuing our strong partnership with Petrobras.
