Aker Solutions has signed a contract with Hyundai Heavy Industries to supply a complete drilling equipment topside package to a new semi-submersible drilling rig the South Korean yard is building for Seadrill, the rig operator.

The contract includes an option to supply one more drilling equipment package.

"We are very pleased to deliver our first complete topside drilling package to Hyundai Heavy Industries, and we look forward to further develop a successful partnership," says Thor Arne Håverstad, head of Aker Solutions' drilling technologies business.
