Aker Solutions and Doosan Babcock have agreed to jointly deliver low-carbon and renewable energy projects in the UK.
The partners will particularly focus on pursuing and winning contracts for new hydrogen production plants, and facilities for carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS). Opportunities for other projects within the process and energy industries will also be explored, the Norwegian company said in its statement.
The duo has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) and established a team with key people from both organizations.
The combination of the two companies provides a full engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) solution for the UK’s progressive energy transition agenda.
The two companies have already identified some key prospects which they are positioning for.
Kjetel Digre , CEO of Aker Solutions, said that the MoU is “an important step for our objective to grow within projects related to the energy transition, and for our strategy to establish business models with solid partners where this can add value.”
