ABB and Aker Solutions are expanding a strategic alliance agreement for seabed solutions for oil and gas from 2016 to accelerate technology development for offshore wind power and offshore fish farming.

The collaboration will also support more efficient design and fabrication and more sustainable operation and maintenance of such facilities.

The partners said that, like the existing agreement, the extension is not exclusive.

The updated agreement now covers electrical and control for seabed solutions and offshore wind, power-from-shore and electrical, instrumentation, control and telecommunications for offshore aquaculture.

Aker Solutions executive vice president of customers and strategy Anders Hannevik said: Our close and good relationship with ABB over several years has created sustainable innovation in both oil and gas and new technologies for renewables in close collaboration with common customers.

We look forward to building on the good cooperation developed over several years to develop new technologies and systems for sustainable aquaculture facilities and low-carbon, energy-efficient solutions for the energy transition.

ABB in Norway local division manager for energy industries Tor Ove Lussand said: We have had a close, good, and fruitful collaboration with Aker Solutions for several years which has created success for both parties and joint customers.

We look forward to an expanded collaboration that will accelerate technological development for the energy transition and aquaculture facilities with economies of scale and greater sustainability.

The world needs more renewable energy to decarbonise and seafood that is produced in a more sustainable way.
