Welcome to the factory floor

Subsea production and processing systems

You are looking at the ‘subsea factory’ – oil and gas production facilities located directly on the seabed. It’s an ingenious response to today’s challenges of declining reservoir pressures and longer step-outs, and the next frontier in offshore engineering.

Operating 24/7, it’s a factory that runs continually throughout the life of the feld, making long-term reliability and maintainability a critical part of every subsea component.

Today only Aker Solutions offers the right subsea technology portfolio, multidisciplinary knowledge and large-scale project experience required to build, run and maintain a production system on the seafoor.

We are making the subsea factory vision a welcome reality.
