The Norwegian Engineering Company Aker Solutions Partnered with Subsea Boosting Company FSubsea to Create an Enterprise Focused on Oil Recovery.

It was revealed this Wednesday, April 10th, that Aker Solutions and its compatriot FSubsea agreed to create a new company to help operators increase oil recovery in a “faster, simpler, and more environmentally friendly” manner. The new company, FASTSubsea, combines FSubsea’s Hydromag coupling system and Aker Solutions’ hydraulic technology to create what the company describes as “the world’s first multiphase boosting system.”

What to Expect from FASTSubsea

This boosting system is expected to reduce capital expenditure by half and enable subsea boosting in spaces without available topside, allowing oil and gas companies to utilize existing wells more efficiently and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

The Agreement

Aker Solutions and FSubsea hold 50% of the shares in FASTSubsea, with the board having an equal number of representatives from both FSubsea and Aker Solutions.

FSubsea and Aker Solutions will continue to sell their separate subsea boosting products directly to the market. The FASTSubsea multiphase pump will be marketed to operators and subsea integrators through Aker Solutions, as well as through the joint venture.

The agreement is subject to the approval of Norwegian competition authorities.

Aker Solutions’ goal is to maximize recovery and efficiency of oil and gas assets, utilizing its expertise to develop sustainable solutions for the future, according to its website. The company employs approximately 15,000 people in more than 20 countries.

FSubsea was established in Oslo, Norway, in 2013 as a spin-off from the Fuglesangs Group. The company’s strategy is to provide autonomous, modular, and robust boosting systems for the global subsea process, unmanned offshore, subsea drilling, and deep-water excavation markets, according to its website.

Rystad said on Monday, April 8th, that global oil discoveries in the first quarter reached a robust figure of 3.2 billion barrels of oil equivalent (boe). If the remainder of 2019 continues at the same rate of oil discoveries as the first quarter, the year will exceed the resources discovered in 2018 by 30%

The Agreement

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Australia prepares to dredge 96.5 million m³ in Moreton Bay to deepen, widen, and realign channels of the Port of Brisbane, in a project of up to 25 years designed to accommodate larger ships and enhance maritime safety and regional port efficiency.

Study solves great ancient mystery: remains of Philip II, father of Alexander the Great, are identified in Vergina and resolves the enigma of the Macedonian royal tombs that had lasted half a century.

Larger than the Toyota Hilux and with a towing capacity of 3.5 tons, the new MG U9 2026 features a 2.5 turbodiesel engine, 520 Nm, 4×4 traction with three locks, and an almost full-size build.

For the first time in history, a submarine cable will descend to four thousand meters deep under the ice of the North Pole to ensure that the internet between Europe and Asia no longer depends on conflict zones in the Middle East.

While the world discusses geopolitics, China is quietly closing a deal with its Kazakh neighbor to secure grain supplies during any global food crisis, with more than 3,600 Kazakh companies already able to export directly to the Chinese market.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Amid the United States’ economic blockade, China delivers 15,000 tons of rice to Cuba as part of a 60,000-ton donation personally approved by Xi Jinping. The package includes 80 million dollars and solar panels for hospitals.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.
