Norwegian oilfield services firm Aker Solutions announced Wednesday that it is on track to meet its growth targets for 2015. Aker has a target of doubling its size between 2010 and 2015. At the beginning of November it revealed that it had achieved its biggest order backlog ever at the end of the third quarter. Now, at the company's 'capital markets day' it has revealed that it will not only meet its 2015 growth targets but that it expects growth in revenue and margins will continue into 2017. Aker said that its revenues for the first nine months of this year were 32.2 percent greater than in the first nine months of 2011. "Based on our record high order backlog of almost NOK 60 billion [$10.7 billion], and an estimated 10 per cent annual growth rate in offshore spending over the next five years, Aker Solutions, with its current portfolio of business areas, has the potential to double its revenues again – from 2012 to 2017," Aker Solutions Executive Chairman Øyvind Eriksen said in a company statement.
