A solid position as basis for growth ambitions

  • As one of the world’s most recognized EPC contractors, Kvaerner is among the leaders within several markets
  • More floating platforms have been built to our designs than floaters from any other contractor
  • Over 40 years, we have got 40 contracts for steel jacket substructures for offshore platforms
  • Our track record includes a long row platform topsides, some ranked as the largest or most complex in the world, some ranked at the top of records for fast track deliveries
  • In several markets, we are among the leaders for delivering onshore facilities
  • We are the world’s leading contractor for delivering onshore and offshore facilities to arctic conditions
  • We are recognized as the undisputed leader for concrete substructures for offshore platforms and LNG facilities

Based on this solid foundation, we have a clear objective for further growth.

Internationally, the Kvaerner group will further build its capabilities within EPC projects at a global scale, and capitalise on deepwater oil and gas exploration and development, gravity base structures (GBS) and jacket technologies. It will also develop its operations in selected international markets where there is a strong need for project and construction management and yard development competency.

Within downstream oil and gas, energy and environmental facilities and industrial construction, the Kvaerner group holds a strong position in the North American onshore market. Kvaerner will continue to target downstream and industrial EPC projects with the ambition to maintain its strong position in the United States and selectively expand into new geographies.
