Aker Solutions signs contract with Petrobras to provide subsea lifecycle services.
The contract covers the management of Petrobras’ oil and gas fields offshore Brazil.

Aker Solutions expands its activities in Brazil

The contract is valid for three years from June 2021.
It includes an option to extend for a further two years.
Aker Solution’s Rio de Janeiro-based services will steer operations.
Brazil is a key global offshore oil and gas market, where the company has been present for over forty years.
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.

Petrobras’ oil and gas fields at stake

Subsea lifecycle services cover the maintenance of Petrobras’ oil and gas fields in Brazil.
This includes inspection, maintenance and repair, as well as installation and commissioning services.
The partnership with Aker Solutions ensures Petrobras optimum development of its fields offshore Brazil.
On the one hand, the aim is to ensure the reliability and safety of the installations.
But also to improve productivity and reduce costs.
