Aker BP chooses IKM Subsea for IMR work in Norway

Oil company Aker BP has awarded a subsea inspection and light intervention contract to independent ROV operator IKM Subsea.

IKM reported on Monday that Aker BP had awarded the company an ad-hoc agreement for light IMR services on the Norwegian continental shelf. The ROV operator added that the contract duration was three years with an additional six years should a contract extension be required. IKM Subsea will provide onshore project management, engineering, tooling preparation and offshore operations utilizing its Merlin ROV fleet.

Hans Fjellanger, Director of Business Development at IKM Subsea, said: “We are humbled and proud of the fact that another major oil and gas company in the North Sea recognizes the growth and development that IKM Subsea has enjoyed in recent years. IKM is happy to continue the strong relationship with Aker BP, adding yet another service line to our trust. ”

As a reminder, the last IKM Subsea was heard of was a services contract awarded by Equinor to work on the Johan Sverdrup development in Norway in May. It was then said that the contract with Equinor on the Johan Sverdrup drilling rig in the North Sea would start in the third quarter of 2018.
