Operators select Aker Kvaerner process technology
Aker Kvaerner has been awarded two new contracts by Hydro and ConocoPhillips, for cleaning and recycling of the glycol used to enhance the flow of gas in subsea pipelines in order to avoid freezing
The scope of work for Aker Kvaerner Subsea covers project management, engineering, manufacturing, testing, delivery and installation support for the Gimboa subsea production system.
"We are proud to be awarded this contract with Sonangol, the national oil company of Angola, where we will use our already well-proven subsea production system technology.
This will be the first offshore field Sonangol is developing as operator and will further strengthen the already good relationship between the two companies.
We consider this contract to be of strategic importance to the growth of our activity in Angola," says Raymond Carlsen, executive vice president of Aker Kvaerner Subsea.
Aker Kvaerner has a long track record of projects in Angola, and has built up a well equipped base and supplier network to do a substantial part of the work in the country.
The subsea equipment will be installed at a water depth of 700 metres at the Gimboa field about 80 kilometres offshore from the coast of Angola, in West Africa.
