Aker Solutions joins ExxonMobil’s Uaru contractor list

Aker Solutions has sealed a deal with ExxonMobil to provide dynamic and static subsea umbilical for the Uaru oilfield development, located in the Stabroek block offshore Guyana.

The contract, worth between $46m and $138m, includes delivery of three dynamic and seven static umbilicals totaling over 52 km in length.

Project execution, engineering, and manufacturing will take place at the Aker Solutions facility in Mobile, Alabama with delivery planned for the first quarter of 2026.

The Uaru field is part of ExxonMobil’s Starbroek project and is expected to add about 250,000 barrels of daily capacity after the targeted start-up in 2026. Aker Solutions previously won umbilical contracts for ExxonMobil’s Payara and Yellowtail developments in Guyana.

The $12.7bn project will involve several industry majors including Japanese floater expert Modec, TechnipFMC and Saipem.
