Aker Solutions to provide umbilicals for Angolan project
Aker Solutions has signed a contract with ENI for the Block 15\06 West Hub development project in the Angolan deepwater region. The contract value is approximately US$ 50 million.
ENI is the operator of Block 15\06. The West Hub development project, which is part of 15\06, is located approximately 350 km northwest of Luanda and 130 km west of Soyo in Angola. The West Hub consists of the main field Sangos and two additional satellite fields called Cinguvu and Ngoma.
Aker Solutions' scope of work includes the engineering, procurement, fabrication, and supply of static and dynamic steel tube umbilicals, totalling 34 km, in addition to associated equipment and hardware.
"This contract reflects our strong ambitions for West Africa and our capabilities in Angola where Aker Solutions has invested for several years. We look forward to executing this project together with the client ENI," says Tove Røskaft, head of Aker Solutions' umbilicals business.
The delivery date is in the first quarter of 2014. The contract has been signed and booked as order intake in the third quarter of 2012.

In the oil and gas sector, the management of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is a perpetual balancing act. For years, MEA-triazine has been the industry workhorse – efficient, cost-effective, and generally well-understood. However, as operators push for greater efficiency and contend with varying production environments, the chemical landscape has shifted. The reliance on standard MEA-triazine has evolved into a more complex mix of chemistries, including methylamine (MMA-triazine) and monoisopropanolamine (MBO) formulations.
