Aker Solutions has signed an agreement to deliver engineering and project management services at various subsea oil and gas fields operated by BP.
The contract is for a period of five years and can also be extended by a further two years.
Under the contract, Aker Solutions will provide subsea engineering services, asset integrity management as well as operations support.
Aker Solutions CEO Luis Araujo said: "We are delighted to partner with BP in finding cost-effective solutions to boost productivity and optimise the infrastructure of the company’s subsea fields.
"We have provided subsea operations support to BP in the UK for more than 15 years and look forward to building on this partnership with a global agreement."
Aker Solutions plans to execute the work through a global delivery model.
Both Aker Solutions and BP have agreed not to disclose the contract value.
In November 2015, Aker Solutions was awarded a contract valued at $369m to provide maintenance and modifications services at BP’s oil and gas fields in offshore Norway.
Under the five-year contract, Aker Solutions worked on the North Sea fields including Ula, Tambar, Hod and Valhall, as well as the Skarv deposit in the Norwegian Sea.
