Halliburton will provide Aker BP’s well construction activities performed from either a Jack-Up (Maersk) or semisubmersible (Odfjell) drilling unit, provided the model is approved in the respective licenses.

The framework agreements are five years firm with the option to extend for five years.

Aker BP was formed from the merger of Det norske and BP Norge. it is the operator of the Valhall, Ula, Ivar Aasen, Alvheim and Skarv field hubs.
