STOCKHOLM, Jan 9 (Reuters) - The Norwegian government
said on Thursday it has sold its 6.11% stake in Aker Solutions
AKSOA.OL , a supplier of engineering and construction services
and technology for the energy sector, for around 963 million
crowns ($84.5 million).
"The state has assessed that a sale of our remaining shares
now coincides well with the state's goal with the ownership,
which is the highest possible return over time within
sustainable limits," it said in a statement.
