Norway Royal Salmon ASA (NRS): Arctic Offshore Farming granted development licenses
2018年3月10日 - 5:34AM
The Directorate of Fisheries has
today granted 7.68 development licenses (5,990 tonnes MAB) for the
development of Arctic Offshore Farming. The licenses are a
recognition of a long and good development process in which NRS,
Aker ASA and Aker Solutions have developed a semi-submersible
offshore fish farm designed for harsh areas. The facility will
provide significantly increased area utilization of Norwegian sea
waters when positioned farther away from the coast, where in
addition it will have a small environmental footprint.
An extensive effort has been put
in place to develop this concept. At the same time, there has been
an open, positive and constructive dialogue with the Directorate of
Fisheries to adjust the concept within a framework that were
acceptable to the parties.
The original concept should have
been established in the open sea and required 4 units and 15
licenses. In the revised concept it is proposed to use a site at
the mouth of a fjord with 2 units and 7.68 associated development
licenses. Because the project has been scaled down to about half of
the original project size and the capital requirements have been
significantly reduced, Aker has chosen not to move further into the
pilot and realization phase. Aker Solutions will continue as a
technology and collaboration partner in the project.
The facility will be significantly
more exposed than today's locations. Meanwhile, other environmental
conditions on such sites are very attractive for salmon, with good
water exchange that will ensure good fish welfare, growth and
environmental sustainability.
NRS is working towards a goal of
putting the first fish in the sea during the summer of 2020. The
industrial ambition is to combine knowledge from the fish farming
industry with offshore expertise to develop the aquaculture
industry of the future and secure sustainable future growth for the
Norwegian aquaculture industry.
Shortly, information on the
project will be published on www.norwayroyalsalmon.com, where there
will be detailed information on the concept and the possibility for
potential suppliers to register their interest in the different
parts of the project.
