Aker Solutions wins contract for Hild Field

Aker Solutions has won a contract to conduct the basic engineering for the development of Total's Hild field in the Norwegian North Sea. The contract value is about NOK 215 million (US$ 37.4 million).

Aker Solutions' scope of work includes engineering for several building blocks, including topside, jacket, an FSO (floating storage and offloading), turret and mooring, SURF (subsea umbilicals, risers, pipelines and flowlines) and transportation and installation. The work will be completed in the summer of 2012. Basic engineering work covers a greater level of detail than a normal FEED study for field developments.

Hild Hild is an oil and gas field located in the North Sea, about 160 km offshore and 42 km west of the Oseberg field. The water depth is 100-120 m. The licence owners include the operator TOTAL E&P NORGE AS (which owns 49%), Statoil (21%) and Petoro (30%).
