NEW ORLEANS – Aker Solutions is showcasing the capabilities of its Vectus 6.0 subsea control system at the Subsea Tieback Forum & Exhibition being held at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans.
Company officials explained that harder-to-reach reserves, low recovery rates, and the increasing complexity of subsea reservoirs mean that there is a need to deliver a subsea electronics system that will maximize return on investment for subsea operators.
Aker Solutions officials said that the next generation of subsea electronics has been designed to meet these challenges, delivering greater data and power capabilities with lower project execution risks.
Officials added that Vectus 6.0, is the company’s latest subsea electronics module, and is the first in a series of product releases that will deliver a “holistic solution” tosubsea oil and gas production. A key component of Vectus 6.0 is a software and electronics platform with a distributed architecture that “will bring a step-change in flexibility, management, and monitoring.”
