📋 Tender Overview
The subsea delivery will include wellheads vertical subsea trees satellite structures control systems a tie-in module and about 30 kilometers of umbilicals.The contract has a value of about NOK 700 million which will be booked as order intake in the fourth quarter.The subsea alliance between Aker Solutions Subsea 7 and Aker BP has already demonstrated great value through a series of subsea project deliveries. Close cooperation between the parties is instrumental in making both phase one and two of the rfugl project a success said Egil Byum executive vice president greenfield projects at Aker Solutions.Our deliveries to rfugl highlight the power of Intelligent Subsea as we utilize our integrated field design capabilities to accelerate the field development and maximize performance Byum adds.The deliveries include the Vectus next generation subsea control system which offers greater data and power capabilities and Aker Solutions standard lightweight vertical subsea trees.The work starts immediately and involves facilities in Norway the UK India Malaysia and Brazil. The subsea structures are scheduled for delivery in 2020.rfugl is a gas condensate field about 210 kilometers offshore Sandnessjen in Norway. It is connected back to the Skarv floating production storage and offloading FPSO vessel operated by Aker BP. The field design has been optimized with respect to both subsea architecture and corresponding infrastructure such as the FPSO topside and SURF Subsea Umbilicals Risers and Flowlines. The field design also includes capacity to accommodate future tiebacks in the area.Aker Solutions delivered the subsea production system for the first phase of the rfugl development as part of the companys subsea alliance with Aker BP and Subsea 7.Intelligent Subsea is Aker Solutions approach to addressing the current and future needs of subsea production through integrated field design accelerated development and maximized performance. This approach can cut the cost of field development capex by as much as 50 percent and reduce engineering hours during development by even more.
