London stocks close the week on a high note. The blue-chip FTSE 100 rose 0.6%, while the mid-cap FTSE 250 edged up 0.1%. Despite the renewed geopolitical tension, the FTSE 100 logged its strongest monthly performance in four months, buoyed by easing inflation pressures and resilient corporate earnings.
One to note for the future RKH & BOR holders: Norwegian engineering specialist Aragon has been awarded a front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract by Bluewater Energy Services to redeploy the Aoka Mizu FPSO, which is currently operating in the UK North Sea.
The vessel, currently producing in the Lancaster oilfield, is being prepared for transfer to the Sea Lion oil project in the Falkland Islands. This development marks a significant milestone toward the advancement of Sea Lion, one of the most promising undeveloped oil fields in the South Atlantic.
