The first version of the pen is product-certified, and the project is now entering a phase where the behaviour and well-being of the fish will be closely monitored.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne year after being awarded the development licence, the first fish are in the system, and we\u2019re quite happy with that,\u201d said project manager, Trude Olafsen. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe have had our challenges, and what we are trying to achieve is not easy. But this is exactly why we need the development licence. It gives us the opportunity to test the technology on actual biomass for three generations \u2013 and we are grateful for that,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
The operational staff at SinkabergHansen and the service company N\u00e6r\u00f8ysund Aquaservice, which played an important part in the development work, are acquiring valuable experience on deep operations. The goal is to have the pen submerged as much as possible with very little visible at the surface.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have great faith that this may be a solution in certain locations with rough conditions at the surface,\u201d explained Finn Sinkaberg, who worked on the project. \u201cIf the technology from Atlantis Subsea Farming also allows us to use more exposed locations, this is a solution for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
