Siemens and Aker Solutions Sign Strategic Collaboration Agreement to Further Develop Digital Offerings in Engineering, Operations, and Services

The collaboration focuses on creating software applications and joint service offerings, including the development of industrial digital twins that will drive efficiency throughout the plant life cycle. Additionally, the companies will develop sector-specific offerings for the oil and gas industry based on Siemens’ Comos engineering platform. These solutions will help clients reduce engineering and operational costs and enable better decision-making.

The agreement is built on a successful and enduring relationship between the two companies, combining individual strengths and promoting joint offerings.

Aker Solutions will bring its expertise in domain and sector-specific digital offerings in field development, asset performance, and integrity, while Siemens will provide a wide range of digital offerings for process industries – from automation equipment to engineering and simulation applications.

“We are excited to strengthen our existing relationship with Siemens”, said Dean Watson, Chief Operating Officer of Aker Solutions. “By working together to develop and deploy advanced digital solutions, we will enable our clients to unlock data and solve significant engineering challenges. Within the energy sector – and beyond – digital twin solutions are providing greater insights which in turn allow for better performance, maintenance, and we look forward to working with a trusted partner like Siemens to further enhance these offerings“.

Eckard Eberle, CEO of Siemens’ Process Automation Business Unit added: “With this collaboration, we are combining Aker Solutions’ strong knowledge in oil and gas exploration projects, as well as their domain-specific digitalization offerings with Siemens’ extensive expertise in electrification”, automation, and digitalization.

Clients from a wide range of industries, including the oil and gas sector, will benefit from an enhanced joint offering that will increase their productivity, efficiency, and flexibility“.
