“We will together with the tree suppliers work towards a more integrated concept involving the entire chain of offshore logistics, where Platform Supply Vessels (PSV) is an essential part. Aker BP aims to reorganize the value chain to drive significant improvements and increase efficiency in how we operate our assets on the Norwegian Continental Shelf,” says SVP Improvement Per Harald Kongelf in Aker BP, and continues:
