Aker Solutions secures a 5-year frame agreement to execute contracts acrossTalisman Sinopec Energy UK Ltd's offshore brownfield projects.

Although the contract contains no firm spending commitment, the anticipated multi-million pound agreement cements the long standing relationship between the two organisations.

Mike Forbes, UK managing director of Aker Solutions maintenance, modifications and operations (MMO) business said: "Talisman Sinopec Energy UK Ltd is embarking on an exciting phase in its development and we are delighted to have been selected for this agreement."

With a significant pipeline of projects within Talisman Sinopec Energy UK Ltd's portfolio, today's announcement reinforces Aker Solutions' strategic objective of growing its business in the UK.

(According to Wikipedia: In a brownfield project a structure would need to be demolished or renovated. Today, the term brownfield project is used in many industries, including software development, to mean to start a project based on prior work or to rebuild (engineer) a product from an existing one).
