Stars
Carbon capture EPC packages
Carbon capture EPC packages are a star for Aker Solutions: surging demand with over 30 large-scale CCS projects announced by 2024 and strong policy tailwinds like the US 45Q incentive (up to 85 USD/t for DAC), creating real project momentum. Aker already masters large modules, integration and brownfield tie-ins—the hardest technical barriers. Continued investment in delivery capacity and strategic partnerships can lock a first-mover advantage. Holding share as the market scales could convert this into a significant cash engine.
Offshore electrification (power-from-shore, HVDC/HVAC)
Operators want emissions down without killing uptime — electrification is the bridge, with power‑from‑shore and HVDC/HVAC enabling up to 80–90% CO2 reductions on some platforms versus gas‑fired gen-sets. Aker Solutions’ offshore topsides and grid‑interface know‑how map directly to these needs and to recent 2024 project wins. Market growth is steep (industry estimates ~12% CAGR 2024–2030) while competition is thin at scale and references matter. Double down on turnkey capability and vendor ecosystems to stay top of the shortlist.
Subsea tie-backs and fast-track production systems
Short-cycle barrels are back as oil averaged ~80 USD/bbl in 2024, and tie-backs are the favorite child, delivering faster FID-to-first-oil. Aker Solutions’ integrated EPC capabilities and field-proven components drive speed and predictability, underpinning high win rates in core basins. Strong market share gains in a still-growing tie-back segment compound quickly when cadence is kept tight, reinforcing category leadership.
Topside brownfield upgrades for debottlenecking
Topside brownfield upgrades for debottlenecking deliver small capital outlays with disproportionate throughput gains; operators prioritize these high-ROI interventions. Aker Solutions’ proven brownfield engineering and live-facility execution is a differentiator in reducing downtime and unlocking capacity. Demand is rising as assets age and operators squeeze more life-cycle value; modular, repeatable toolkits preserve margins and scale share.
- Small capex, large throughput upside
- Aker edge: live-facility execution
- Rising demand from extended asset life
- Modular & repeatable toolkits sustain margin
Integrated FEED-to-EPC for complex energy hubs
Owners seek single accountable partners; Aker Solutions’ cradle-to-grave FEED-to-EPC model (FEED, procurement, construction) reduces interfaces, lowering schedule slippage and execution risk. In 2024 Aker retained incumbent status on a majority of FEED-to-EPC conversions, protecting a high-growth pipeline and sustaining Star positioning.
- Fewer interfaces — single accountable contractor
- Cradle-to-grave reduces slippage and cost overruns
- 2024: often incumbent post-FEED, securing follow-on EPC
- High-growth pipeline — protects glide path
CCS, electrification and tie-backs surge - 30+ CCS projects, 45Q up to 85 USD/t
Carbon capture EPC, electrification and tie-backs are Stars: >30 large CCS projects by 2024 and US 45Q incentives up to 85 USD/t; electrification can cut platform CO2 by 80–90%; oil averaged ~80 USD/bbl in 2024 boosting tie-back activity (est. 12% CAGR 2024–2030); Aker retained majority of FEED-to-EPC conversions in 2024, protecting rapid scale advantage.
| Metric | 2024 |
|---|---|
| Large CCS projects | >30 |
| 45Q incentive (DAC) | up to 85 USD/t |
| Oil price (avg) | ~80 USD/bbl |
| Tie-back CAGR | ~12% (2024–2030) |

Cash Cows
North Sea maintenance and modifications (MMO) frameworks
Mature North Sea MMO frameworks deliver predictable workbanks and steady budgets; in 2024 Aker Solutions retained entrenched positions on major platforms with framework values often in the high hundreds of millions NOK, keeping utilization high and margins defendable. Low growth but strong cash generation favors lean teams and sticky contracts to milk dependable cash flow.
Lifecycle services for subsea and topsides
Lifecycle services for subsea and topsides — inspection, integrity, spares and minor capex — remain cash cows for Aker Solutions: a 2024 installed base of thousands of assets generates recurring work with low selling cost, supporting modest mid-single-digit growth but strong cash conversion; focus on tooling and planning systems (targeting sub-10% incremental cost-to-serve reductions) can squeeze additional margin and free cash.
Engineering and FEED consultancy in core regions
Owners still require early-phase FEED and studies to unlock FIDs, and Aker Solutions — with about 14,000 employees in 2024 — remains the go-to where it has delivery history. The work won't hockey-stick but reliably fills the front-end funnel profitably; standardize deliverables, keep benches billable and bank the cash. A lean FEED engine in core regions sustains margins and funds growth.
Procurement and modular fabrication for repeatable packages
Procurement and modular fabrication for repeatable packages hinge on locked BOMs: scale and supplier terms do the heavy lifting, and Aker Solutions’ 2024 focus on category management and yard network sustains cost leverage. It is a steady margin contributor rather than a growth rocket; tighten logistics and keep rework near zero to ensure predictable payouts.
- Scale-driven unit cost
- Category management leverage
- Yard network efficiency
- Margin contributor, not growth
- Logistics + near-zero rework = steady cash
Umbilicals, cables, and ancillary equipment supply
Umbilicals, cables and ancillary equipment are required across most offshore scopes; Aker Solutions' established references and qualification status reduce bid friction and sustain a solid share despite tepid market growth (low single-digit growth in 2024). Emphasis on on-time delivery and uptime guarantees protects pricing and margins, positioning this line as a cash cow within Aker's BCG matrix.
- High recurrent demand
- Low-single-digit market growth (2024)
- Strong refs/qual status = lower bid friction
- Focus: on-time delivery & uptime guarantees
North Sea MMO: high‑hundreds MNOK frameworks, thousands of assets, steady recurring cashflow
Mature North Sea MMO frameworks and lifecycle services are steady cash cows: entrenched 2024 framework wins (often high hundreds of MNOK) plus an installed base of thousands generate predictable, low‑sales‑cost recurring cashflow; market growth was low single‑digit in 2024 while Aker Solutions employed ~14,000 people, enabling lean delivery and strong cash conversion.
| Metric | 2024 |
|---|---|
| Employees | ~14,000 |
| Framework value | High hundreds MNOK (typical) |
| Market growth | Low single‑digit |
| Installed base | Thousands of assets |
