September 30, 2024 - Aker Solutions has been awarded a sizeable[1] EPCIC
contract by Equinor to prepare the topside of Troll A for accelerating
production from the Troll West gas reservoir.

The Troll field is situated in the North Sea, 80 km northwest of Bergen, and is
Norway's largest gas producer, supplying 10 percent of Europe's total gas needs.
Troll Phase 3 involves producing the gas cap overlying the oil column in Troll
West, while also continuing the production of oil. The produced gas goes to
Troll A and onwards in existing infrastructure.

The scope includes engineering, procurement, construction, installation and
commissioning (EPCIC) for topside modification. The purpose is to prepare the
Troll A platform for receiving and processing gas from eight new wells at Troll
West.

The first stage of this development was completed in 2021 with a new module on
the Troll A platform to receive and process gas from the Troll West field. Aker
Solutions completed the Troll A topside modification and provided the subsea
systems for the field development in Stage I.

"We are excited to continue following the significant development of the giant
Troll field and to move forward with the next step of Troll Phase 3. In-depth
knowledge of Troll A, the equipment on the asset, and the modifications made in
the first phase is essential, providing a strong foundation for executing this
new scope," said Paal Eikeseth, executive vice-president and head of Aker
Solutions' Life Cycle segment.

Aker Solutions has also been entrusted with preparing and installing equipment
for the clean-up of the initial well fluids during the start-up of the wells.

"We will have the lead responsibility for the interfaces between contractors in
this project and will leverage our experience as integrators in complex energy
projects, focusing on delivering high-value and optimized solutions. We are
honored to be a trusted contractor and look forward to continuing the close
collaboration with Equinor on Troll," said Paal Eikeseth.

Several Aker Solutions offices will be engaged in the engineering phase. Project
management, detail engineering, procurement and shop engineering is executed by
Aker Solutions` Stavanger office with support from Bergen and Mumbai.
Construction and prefabrication will be executed at the company's yard in
Egersund. In addition, OneSubsea, of which Aker Solutions owns 20 percent, has
previously been contracted for the subsea production system for this project.

The contract will start right away and is scheduled for completion at the end of
2027.

The contract will be booked in the Life Cycle segment as order intake for the
third quarter of 2024.

[1]Aker Solutions defines a sizeable contract as between NOK 0.5 billion and NOK
1.5 billion.
