Developed together with Marintek, Multiconsult and SINTEF, this groundbreaking solution has been thoroughly tested and certified.
Full-scale testing
Together with Mowi, we’ve carried out full-scale testing of the system for post-smolt production but designed also for full-grown fish and brood fish.
Advanced Closed Containment
We have designed and produced the closed containment system Neptun 3, which is now in operation at Mowi. With a diameter of 40 meters, a depth of 22 meters, and a volume of 21,000 cubic meters, it is designed to produce up to one million post-smolt.
Sustainable Design & Monitoring
The system draws water from deeper layers to avoid the sea lice zone and features a sludge collection system, reducing its environmental footprint. We have been closely monitoring production in collaboration with Mowi to further develop sustainable solutions for the future of aquaculture.
Technology used
- Sedimentation of wastewater
- Oxygenation of intake-water
- Water flows through the system from a depth of 15-40 meters
- Certified according to NS 9415/Nytek
- Supported by Innovation Norway
By using this technology, we aim for improved survival rates, optimal growth conditions, disease prevention, reduced medical treatments, and enhanced welfare through better water quality and nutrition.
Impact on Business
The closed system, with its benefits, will lead to increased profitability through efficient production, sustainable solutions, and improved fish welfare. Society will benefit from reduced environmental impact, enhanced food security, and responsible resource use.
