Aker launches Intelligent Subsea solution to accelerate offshore developments

Technology

Engineering company Aker Solutions has launched its Intelligent Subsea offering designed to accelerate field development and maximise performance

With the Intelligent Subsea approach, the time it takes to generate optimal subsea field layouts can be reduced by 75 per cent and the cost of field development can be halved.

Accelerated field development is achieved by combining the modular, optimized and configurable subsea equipment of Aker Solutions with an automated design that can reduce engineering hours by up to 70 per cent.

Intelligent Subsea will address the needs of subsea production by implementing an integrated field design approach where subsea and topside systems are optimised. It allows digitally enabled products to be configured to meet customer needs within accelerated timelines.

In addition, it optimises field life performance with enhanced recovery and extends field life through condition monitoring, predictive maintenance and simplified system enhancement.

Aker Solutions CEO Luis Araujo said, “Digitalisation of our work process and new applications are transforming field design, radically accelerating development and delivering actionable insight to maximise performance through the life of a field. Our system thinking and intelligent solutions are a revolution in subsea developments. Intelligent Subsea is enhancing recovery, saving cost and increasing value through the life of a field.”

“With our industry-leading all-electric and subsea gas compression technology, we extended the frontier for subsea production. We believe Intelligent Subsea will set a new frontier for customer value in projects around the world,” concluded Araujo.
