Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – March 22, 2021. Aker Solutions in Malaysia has been awarded a contract from MISC to provide detailed engineering services for a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) facility, offshore Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The FPSO engineering services work scope includes detailed design for topsides, hull, marine and subsea interfaces.
The project will be led by Aker Solutions’ engineering team in Kuala Lumpur with the support from the company’s other engineering hubs globally.
“Aker Solutions has extensive experience in both newbuild and modification for FPSOs. Our engineering team in Kuala Lumpur has over 30 years of proven capability in executing engineering projects globally,” said Jason Brown, Aker Solutions’ Senior Vice President, Engineering Malaysia and Global Business Development. “We have been partnering with MISC in the last four years to pursue opportunities in local and international projects and we are pleased to continue the collaboration in the latest project.”
In October last year, Aker Solutions secured an award in China from ‘Tianjin BOMESC Offshore Engineering Company Limited’ to provide engineering services for five topsides process modules with a total weight of approximately 10,000 metric tons for an FPSO project offshore Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The delivery of the project is expected to be completed in the second quarter of this year.
