Aker Solutions delivers Johan Sverdrup module

Fossil energy – Johan Sverdrup

Last week Aker Solutions delivered the 5000-ton additional module for the Johan Sverdrup riser platform.

The module is a part of the field’s second development phase and is the latest in a series of large deliveries from Aker Solutions to the Johan Sverdrup field development.

Aker Solutions has been one of the biggest suppliers to the development of Johan Sverdrup. The company has, among other things, delivered front-end engineering and design (FEED) to both phases of the project, four out of five jackets, the living quarters platform and hook-up and integration services, as well as the large module that is being delivered from Aker Solutions’ yard in Stord, Norway.

“For Aker Solutions, the module as of now represents the last large, physical delivery to Johan Sverdrup. We are proud to be one of the key contributors to this gigantic field development project. Johan Sverdrup has provided enormous ripple effects for the entire industry and will produce large values for the society for decades to come,” said Kjetel Digre, chief executive officer of Aker Solutions.

The module is on barge at Stord and will be towed to the Johan Sverdrup field and lifted on board the riser platform by the heavy-lift vessel Sleipnir. This operation is expected to take two days.
