APL Norway is a company that specializes in advanced technology and engineering solutions, particularly in the offshore oil and gas industry. The company is recognized for its expertise in developing and supplying innovative systems for the transfer of hydrocarbons and has been a key player in creating solutions that enhance the safety, efficiency, and capability of offshore operations.


One of the company's flagship products is its turret mooring systems, which allow floating production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) vessels to remain anchored in place while still rotating freely with the currents and wind. This technology is crucial for enabling effective and safe production in deepwater locations and harsh environments.


APL Norway also provides solutions for other aspects of offshore production, including:



  1. Subsea loading systems: These systems enable the transfer of oil and gas from subsea wells to surface vessels, optimizing the efficiency and safety of the transfer process.

  2. Dynamic positioning systems: These systems keep vessels in a fixed position relative to subsea infrastructure, crucial for operations like drilling and production.

  3. Offloading solutions: These include various technologies for transferring hydrocarbons from FPSOs or other storage units to shuttle tankers.


The company combines robust engineering capabilities with cutting-edge technology to deliver customized solutions tailored to the specific needs of their clients. APL Norway often collaborates closely with oil and gas operators, shipbuilders, and other engineering firms to develop its products and services.
