47 Submarine Modules to Be Exported to Oil Fields in Norway at the Request of Statoil. Opportunities Will Arise.

Of Norwegian origin, Aker Solutions, the main supplier in the oil and gas sector in Paraná, and Statoil, one of the leading oil producers in Brazil, officially celebrated the signing of three contracts for the exportation of goods produced in Brazil to Norway. The ceremony took place on Tuesday (13) at Aker’s headquarters in São José dos Pinhais, the metropolitan region of Curitiba.

Anders Opedal, president of Statoil, believes that these projects demonstrate the importance of Brazilian suppliers, highlighting that it is possible to deliver large projects and collaborate beyond borders. “Local suppliers can be competitive in terms of quality, safety, cost, and timelines. Our interest is to encourage their development,” he said.

Statoil’s plans in Brazil are long-term, which, according to Opedal, makes it necessary to have a network of local suppliers. “In 2050, we will be here. We need these suppliers; otherwise, we would have to import, which would not work for our plans,” he said. In 2017, Statoil invested R$ 1.24 billion in Brazil in purchases of goods and services from 800 Brazilian companies.

Aurélio Amaral from the National Agency of Petroleum (ANP) also emphasized the importance of stimulating the development of the local industry, enabling fair competition within the sector. “It is satisfying to see that investments are staying in the country, encouraging the production of cutting-edge technology here,” he declared in his speech at the ceremony.

When asked if this new phase of Aker in Brazil is expected to generate new jobs at the São José dos Pinhais factory, the largest in the world, Peralta stated that, at this moment, the situation is stable. “We have seen a decline in recent years worldwide. For now, we are doing well, perhaps we will have some targeted hires for specific skills, but they are not significant numbers,” he added. Worldwide, Aker Solutions employs 14,000 people in 20 countries. In Brazil, besides São José dos Pinhais, it also operates in Rio de Janeiro and Rio das Ostras. In Paraná, the factory has been functioning since the 1970s. Source: Gazeta o Povo
