The Project Developed by Aker Was Delivered to Petrobras for Pre-Salt Exploration

Aker Solutions, a Norwegian company, delivered the last of 60 sets of subsea trees for pre-salt exploration to Petrobras. The project is FA 2011 60 XMT and this marks the completion of the company’s largest project in Brazil.

Aker Solutions entered into an agreement with Petrobras to supply subsea equipment for the development of pre-salt fields in deep water in Brazil in March 2013.

The contract value was approximately NOK 4.6 billion (US$ 800 million).

The so-called FA 2011 project saw Aker Solutions deliver the first of sixty subsea trees to Petrobras in July 2015.

“The FA 2011 was a project of major milestones, from the first delivery ahead of schedule to the finish, manufacturing with reduced labor capacity due to the pandemic,” said Aker Solutions.

This agreement led to the largest investment and expansion of Aker Solutions in Brazil.

The company established a new subsea factory in Curitiba, Paraná, 800 kilometers south of Rio de Janeiro. This technology center replaced the current plant and was officially inaugurated in April 2016, employing about 850 people.

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

Ethiopia has banned gasoline and diesel cars, placed over a hundred silent electric buses on the streets of Addis Ababa, and now aims for half a million electric vehicles by 2030, all powered by Africa’s largest dam and a courage that few countries have shown.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

An astronaut spent 340 days in space while his twin brother stayed on Earth, and NASA found a “rejuvenating” effect, genes, microbiome, cognition, and immune system that revealed the biological cost of living outside the planet.

After 14 years of construction and a diplomatic crisis that nearly led to a military confrontation over control of the Nile, Ethiopia inaugurated the largest hydroelectric power plant in Africa — the dam is 170 meters high, holds 74 billion cubic meters of water, and generates 5,150 megawatts.

China has over 320 million elderly people and has created nearly 80,000 dining facilities with meals starting from R$ 2, where low-income elderly people can even eat for free, and the current goal is for every elderly person to have access to a meal within 15 minutes of their home.

A farmer from rural Roraima invented a bean-shelling machine that does in minutes the work that used to take all day, and the invention attracted so much attention that it was selected for a national innovation competition in Campinas and returned with an award.

Laid out like a chessboard even before having a single resident, Teresina was the first planned capital of Brazil and today surprises with avenues shaded by ancient trees, two rivers of different colors that meet, and chilled cajuína on the table.

A French startup wants to place 3,400 satellites just 375 km from Earth, closer than Starlink, to offer 5G internet directly to mobile phones without needing a special antenna, and has just raised 27 million euros to start challenging the American giants.

A Chinese company has just delivered its 10,000th humanoid robot — and now wants to place 100,000 in factories worldwide by the end of the year, while Tesla, Boston Dynamics, and the rest of the West have yet to move beyond prototypes.

Brazil has never generated so much clean energy — and has never charged so much for it: while solar and wind farms break records, the electricity bill rises by up to 23% and R$ 52 billion in charges are paid by 35 million families who don’t understand why electricity has become so expensive.
