Per Sandberg

The Norwegian Minister of Fisheries.

The future is bright blue

Providing enough food for a growing population is one of the most challenging questions in our time. Blue growth is the key to a sustainable future.

The seafood industry is unique: It has a long past and an incredibly promising future. Historically speaking, fisheries have been one of Norway’s most important industries. Fish became an important trading commodity in the 17th century. It has provided people with work, income and food for several hundred years.

Today Norway is ranked as the world’s second largest exporting nation, supplying more than 140 countries worldwide with Norwegian seafood. The total value of our exports in 2016 amounted to 10.2 billion Euros.

As Norway’s minister of fisheries, I am proud to represent an industry that produces commodities as vitally important as food. The world’s population is growing, and by 2050 we expect to have nine billion individuals to inhabit the planet.

The increased world population, coupled with climate change and urbanization, makes it even more important to harvest from the sea. The Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that the world must increase food production by 70 percent by 2050 in order to meet the increase in demand.

The increase in food demand is a tremendous challenge that we must solve partly by producing seafood. The main growth in supplies of seafood will have to come from aquaculture production.

However, ocean farming needs to be developed in a sustainable way. The footprint on the environment must be at an acceptable level. As the world largest producer of farmed salmon Norway is committed to sustainable aquaculture.

Scientists believe that the potential for marine growth in Norway can be quadrupled over the next 30 years. To be able to reach this potential we need to expand our knowledge and technology. We must create new knowledge-based jobs and contribute to the necessary shift in the economy. This is a challenge, but also an opportunity.

For Norway’s part, it means that we have to move from a petroleum-based economy to a knowledge-based economy. We have to use our experience in new ways. We have valuable knowledge from the oil industry that can contribute to new blue growth, one example is the development of off-shore sea-farms.

We are encouraging innovation and technological development. That is why the government recently announced special licenses for innovation projects. This is an incentive to develop and commercialize new, more environmentally sustainable technology paving the way for future growth.

The opportunities that lies in our oceans will not be realised by themselves. But we can seize the opportunities through cooperation and interaction between government, researchers, commercial actors and industry. Together we can create a bright blue future.

Norwegian Seafood Council

Every day throughout the year, 34 million meals of seafood from Norway are served worldwide. The Norwegian Seafood Council (NSC) strives to make that number even greater and to ensure that people from all corners of the world know that the best seafood comes from Norway. The Norwegian seafood industry funds the NSC itself, and enables the NSC to develop markets for Norwegian seafood both in Norway and abroad.


The NSC’s head offi ce is located in Tromsø and it employs representatives in Sweden, Germany, the UK, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Brazil, Japan, China, Singapore, and the USA. The Norwegian Seafood Council has some 75 employees and a 2017 budget of NOK 493 million.

The NSC’s main areas of business include:

Marketing

In order to increase awareness of and demand for Norwegian seafood, the NSC carries out marketing activities in cooperation with players in the industry. Each year, some 500 projects are carried out in 25 different markets. These are all founded on NSC competencies within consumer analyses, international marketing, brand establishment, PR and different campaigns in shops or restaurants.

Communication & Issues Management

The NSC is a key player in the safeguarding of the Norwegian seafood industry’s positive reputation. The NSC engages in active information work and cooperates closely with media, NGOs, various interest groups, the fishery industry, and Norwegian authorities.

The Norwegian Fishermen’s
Sales Organization



The Norwegian seafood industry is one of the country’s largest and most important export industries. The industry has a proud history and a fantastic future. The Norwegian Fishermen’s Sales Organization (Norges Råfisklag) is an important part of this success story. The organization handles important national functions within the trade of seafood, and works to safeguard fishermen’s incomes and contribute to a sustainable and profitable growth in the Norwegian fishing industry.

About the Organization

Norges Råfisklag is the fishermen’s own sales organization and it operates a well-functioning and modern marketplace for sustainable, wild-caught Norwegian seafood. The organization has a welldeveloped service system and offers fishermen and buyers a number of services directly related to trading, sales, payments and quality assurance.

The organization organizes and arranges the sale of codfish, shellfish and molluscs landed along the Norwegian coast from Nordmøre in the southwest to Finnmark in the northeast. The most important species are cod, coalfish, haddock and shrimps/ prawns. Fishing is carried out along the Norwegian coast, in the Barents Sea and around Spitsbergen.

Norwegian seafood export reaches
new heights and new markets

The export of Norwegian seafood keeps reaching new heights and new markets. Last year 2.4 million tons of Norwegian seafood was exported from Norway to the world. The total value was 91.6 billion NOK.

Norwegian seafood is consumed in most parts of the world. 34 million meals of Norwegian seafood are served daily, and in 2016 Norway exported seafood to 146 different countries. The seafood is exported to big, well established markets in Europe and Asia; to countries like Great Britain, France, Spain, Germany and Japan, as well as to smaller markets measured in volume and consumption. These are nevertheless important for an expanding seafood nation like Norway. We have taken a closer look at three traditional markets for Norwegian seafood, as well as one of the Norwegian Seafood Council’s focus markets. This includes a closer look at whitefish and conventional products like king crab, snow crab and shrimp.

Norwegian Bacalao and Skrei are both available on the Canary Islands.

The Battle for cod

2016 was a good year for the whitefish industry with a primary value of 11 billion NOK, and an export value of 13.8 billion NOK. An explanation for this is the fact that the quotas have remained stable for the past three years while the prices have increased for the best-selling products, such as clip fish, stock fish and fresh products. The Norwegian industry has also been helped by a favorable currency rate and good relationships with the markets demanding their fish. Markets that request more cod contribute to the battle for the fresh produce, as the season gets tougher. More whole fresh cod is being sold to high-paying markets. This is particularly evident for the quality brand Skrei, a direct result of years of focus on skrei (spawning cod). Simultaneously, this may make it harder to obtain fresh products for the conventional sectors, like clip fish and stock fish. They usually buy their fresh products early in the year, process it and sell it in the autumn.

There have been challenges in several of the traditional clip fish markets over last year. 2017 may also turn out to be challenging for the clip fish industry. In Portugal, the most important cod clip fish market for Norway, trade is doing well in spite of the fact that the country, as a whole, has struggled through hard fi nancial times. In Brazil, Congo, Congo- Brazzaville and Angola, there have been a number of challenges, both in terms of market access and lack of purchasing power. As for Nigeria, a strong market for Norwegian stock fish, high tariff barriers and currency restrictions have caused problems. A large portion of whole and frozen cod has left the Norway, primary for further processing in China and Eastern Europe. This is a trend that may be changing as investments are being made both on vessels and on shore facilities to improve and streamline the production. Over time a larger portion of the processing may take place in Norway, even though these changes will not be in the statistics for 2017.

More live king crab

Norwegian export of shellfish includes mainly king crab, snow crab and shrimps. Last year, the total export of shellfish was 440 000 tons worth 1.8 billion NOK. Catch of king crab in the Barents Sea has been going on since 2002. Today, approximately 570 boats fish for king crab and deliver it at processing facilities along the coast. The king crab is being exported both frozen and live. Since 2002, the percentage of live crabs being exported has increased signifi cantly. In 2016, approximately 50 % of the king crabs exported were in living condition. From 2015 to 2016 the share of live crabs increased from 634 tons to 1169 tons. The total export of frozen and live crabs accounted for 2 239 tons, worth 529 million NOK. South Korea is by far Norway’s biggest market for king crabs, followed by USA and Canada, while Japan is the main market for frozen crab. A lot of the crab shipped to South Korea makes its way to other Asian countries and to the US. The Norwegian market share in Japan (8%), South Korea (10%) and USA (1%) is still relatively modest.

When Norway in 2016 changed the date for the start of the quota year to January 1, the exports increased. This was particularly evident for the fi rst half of 2016. However, compared to Russia, Norway is but a small participant in the world’s king crab market. In Japan and South Korea, Norway is not a well-known supplier of king crab and Norwegian king crab is often priced lower than its Russian counterpart. However, in Japan it is often claimed that Norwegian king crab has the best taste and size.

To the Norwegian Seafood Council it is important to increase knowledge and preferences for Norwegian King Crab in these markets. Both Norwegian salmon and mackerel have contributed to establish a strong awareness and brand that the crab industry may utilize in order to gain market. Norway is still viewed as a niche supplier, and in order to climb to a prime position a focus quality is key.

The Japanese are excited about Norwegian king crab.

The snow crab potential

Snow crab is a new species in the Barents Sea and has only been fished by Norwegian vessels since 2013. The catch has grown rapidly and in 2015 approximately 10 000 tons were delivered to Norwegian processing facilities. 6000 tons were caught by Norwegian vessels. Prognoses indicate that the potential for sustainable catch of snow crab may be between 50 000 and 170 000 tons over the next 15 years. With an export of 3951 tons frozen and 60 tons live snow crabs last year, Norway is but a small participant in the market compared to Canada, USA and Russia.

Norwegian snow crab has mostly been exported frozen to the US and Japan. Last year, the export value reached 331 million NOK. The predictions are that this will be a signifi cant future resource. Predictions are that within 10 years Norwegian catches will reach 50 000 tons with an annual value reaching two billion NOK. The anticipated future increase will open opportunities in Asia and the US, in new European markets.

Important strategies

Norwegian vessels fish for shrimps in the Barents Sea and along the coast of Northern Norway and Skagerrak. The shrimps from the Barents Sea are used industrially while shrimps caught closer to the shoreline are prioritized for fresh consumption. Both the shrimps from the Barents Sea and from Skagerrak are MSC Certified, and will be re-Certified in 2017. Norway produces peeled shrimp, fresh or frozen un-peeled and fresh or frozen unprocessed shrimps in a salt solution. Frozen peeled shrimps made up 61 % of the total shrimp volume in 2015. Last year Norway exported 9655 tons of shrimps worth 740 million NOK. The most important markets in sheer volume were Sweden, Great Britain and Finland.

The second biggest market, Great Britain, cold water shrimp is being challenged by imported warm water shrimp from Asiatic countries. The consumption of cold water shrimp has decreased by 23 % over the last two years. A big reason for this is a price increase. The trend for warm water shrimp is the opposite. Here the prices have decreased and the consumption increased. Now, however, there are signs of former prices returning, much due to a weaker British pound. The prices are still high while customers do not seem to know the difference between cold and warm water shrimp. Cold water shrimp makes up only 2, 5 % - or 2000 tons – of the total import of 80 000 tons in 2015. Today the global supply of shrimp is bigger than the demand for frozen, peeled shrimp. Working on new markets, recruiting new customers and product development will only increase in importance for the shrimp industry.

The Brits eat more and more Norwegian cod and haddock. The customers can buy Skrei (Spawning cod) at, for example, Whole Food.

Increased value to the UK

Great Britain is one of the most important markets for Norwegian seafood. In 2016, Norway exported 146 157 tons of seafood to the UK worth 5.7 billion NOK. This is an increase in value of 11 % and 3 % in volume. Especially cod and haddock have long traditions as part of the British fish & chips industry. However, Norwegian salmon also has a strong standing in the market. All in all, the Norwegian export to the UK has seen unchanged volumes in 2016. There has been a slight decrease in volume for cod and salmon, but a slight increase for haddock. The export of frozen haddock increased from 8300 to 14 300 tons. A reason for the decrease in cod export is that there was very little frozen-atsea products available last autumn due to a shortage in stock.

For fresh cod and haddock the market is big. The volume for HG-cod – both frozen and fresh - is increasing. There is a huge market for frozen line fish in the UK, and the market is requesting more frozen-atsea from Norway.

British consumers are price sensitive. When their incomes increase, their consumption of fresh cod fi lets follow suit. But when the prices of fresh cod fi lets increase, the consumption decreases accordingly. There is also a connection between increased prices of fresh cod fi lets and fresh haddock fi lets. After the Brexit referendum in June 2016, the British pound has devalued both against the Norwegian krone and the US dollar. This has made imported goods more expensive. So far it has not affected Norwegian seafood products noticeably. Both the market and the retailers maintain that the consumers shall not pay for the devaluation of the pound. But according to fisheries delegate, Jack- Robert Møller there will be discussions about prices and how to ensure the highest profi ts for the British operators. This year the Seafood Council will increase its budgets for cod and haddock by 30% in Great Britain in order to step up the efforts. This should strengthen both market access and the marketing of cod and haddock. Stock fish to Nigeria Nigeria with its 180 million people is already a substantial market for Norwegian stock fish, and with the large population growth expected, it will only grow larger. Norway has been exporting stock fish to Nigeria since the 1890’s, and most Nigerians are familiar with Norwegian seafood. For the older generation in the south-eastern part of the country, this is particularly evident. The last two years the export of stock fish has been reduced from 11 854 tons in 2014 to 6249 tons last year. There has also been a reduction in the export of stock fish heads, from 1726 tons to 1095 tons during the same period. Two reasons for this are low oil prices and therefore reduced dollar profi ts. This has led to imported goods being 2.5 to 3 times more expensive. Simultaneously, the basis for calculating import duty has been changed. This has also contributed to an increase in the price of stock fish. So far the import duty on stock fish heads has been reduced by 20 % to 10 % and the authorities are willing to change the way they calculate the duty on stock fish in general. The Nigerian Central Bank is also working on changing the import duty system which will lower duties on all fish.

- We see a potential in informing people in other parts of the country and the younger generation about our stock fish. Therefore we will use any opportunity to inform people about the quality and nutritional content of Norwegian seafood. The purpose is to emphasize the high quality of Norwegian seafood and to ensure that this information reaches the young generation, says fisheries delegate, Trond Kostveit.

Expected growth Chinese seafood consumption

China is by far the world’s leading producer, exporter and consumer of seafood. The nation’s understanding of seafood includes a broad range of species such as fish, shellfish, mollusk and seaweed. Most of China’s own production is consumed domestically and sold at low prices. The most commonly used everyday fish is fresh water fish purchased while the fish is still alive. The ‘wet market’ is the most important channel for everyday fish, but it can also be bought in modern supermarkets.

Over the past 10 years, a strong growth in the consumption of imported seafood has taken place in China. The most popular is salmon, but there are also substantial imports of lobster, Antarctic toothfish and other less commonly used seafood species. Salmon has found a position in the market where few other species can compete. Between 87% and 90% of all salmon consumed in China is consumed raw as part of a dish called sashimi.

Approximately 75% to 80% of all salmon is eaten in restaurants, with Japanese restaurants being the most common. In 2016, between 70 000 and 80 000 tons of Atlantic salmon was consumed in China. Only a small percentage of this was salmon from Norway. Gaining access to the market has been a big challenge for the six previous years. A normalizing of market access is now expected and this may lead to an increased market share. The Norwegian Seafood Council estimates a share of 65 % in China.

- We are talking about a potential of 45 000 to 52 000 tons in just a short period of time. Over a longer period we expect a signifi cant increase in the consumption of salmon in China to 240 000 tons by 2025 if the access is there, says fisheries delegate in China, Sigmund Bjørgo.

Stock fish to Nigeria

Nigeria with its 180 million people is already a substantial market for Norwegian stock fish, and with the large population growth expected, it will only grow larger. Norway has been exporting stock fish to Nigeria since the 1890’s, and most Nigerians are familiar with Norwegian seafood. For the older generation in the south-eastern part of the country, this is particularly evident. The last two years the export of stock fish has been reduced from 11 854 tons in 2014 to 6249 tons last year. There has also been a reduction in the export of stock fish heads, from 1726 tons to 1095 tons Atlantic cod, on the other hand, is a completely new product in China. There is in fact not a Chinese word for cod. Still one sees a large and increasing demand for high quality seafood among the Chinese. Through the project “Cod in China” the Norwegian Seafood Council has revealed that Norwegian cod has a signifi cant potential in the market.

- We defi nitely see the biggest potential for cod as everyday dinner for the growing middle class in the domestic market. It is amazing how well cod fi ts the Chinese cuisine. It is easy to replace other types of fish with cod when making traditional Chinese seafood meals. You end up with a safe, healthy and tasty meal, explains Bjørgo while adding that there is an increasing interest in Norwegian cod. Several Norwegian and Chinese companies work to develop this exciting market. The Seafood Council estimates that within fi ve years of relevant distribution the potential may be 20 000 tons.

Salmon paving way in India

India has a population of 1.3 billion, expected to increase to 1.5 billion by 2025. Even though the consumption of seafood today is a modest six kilos per person annually, it has increased six fold over the last 20 years. The consumption of fresh fish has seen a high increases due to a general mistrust of frozen food. India exports substantially more seafood than it imports. Approximately 920 000 tons, mainly fresh water shrimps and scampi, are being exported while only about 18 000 tons, mainly Pangasius from Asia, is imported. With a growth in consumption of 5 % annually, India will be short of one million tons of seafood by 2025. Some of the demand will be replaced by land-based and marine aquaculture and some from sea fishing with ocean going vessels that can fish further from the coast. The import of seafood will nevertheless constitute an increased share of the consumption.

With an Indian middle class estimated at about 400 million and constantly growing, there should be between 20 and 30 million potential consumers for Norwegian seafood in the big cities. The most obvious challenges for sales increase are the low Indian prices, which make Norwegian seafood seem expensive in comparison.

- We are talking about fresh salmon at 300 NOK per kilo and smoked salmon at 1000 NOK per kilo while local fish cost on the average between 30 and 170 NOK per kilo. Norwegian export has been low due to high import duties, at times as high as 37%. Another hindrance is that salmon and cod are not well-known among the middle class. This is why the market is small today, only a total of 450 tons of salmon, the Norwegian share being about 40%. It is worth noting that Indians mainly eat whitefish, which is a niche where Norwegian cod can compete against local fish, even on price. This is an area we are planning to look at, especially in Kolkata, where fish is eaten almost daily, says Norwegian Seafood Council’s project manager for India, Yogi Shergill. Today the Norwegian Seafood Council focuses on cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune plus the tourist destination Goa. These are cities with good purchasing power and places where fish are being consumed. The main focus will be marketoriented promotions with food tasting in the larger grocery stores. Salmon and cod will also be promoted for conferences, wedding markets, restaurants and hotels. The Seafood Council will also consider using Indian celebrities as part of the marketing. Shergill says that there are already a handful Norwegian exporters working with local importers. They are small, regional and fragmented companies, but several big supermarkets are taking over the cold storage from harbors and airports. It will be natural for them to consider importing directly from Norwegian fish farmers or exporters.

- We also see IKEA’s focus on India as a way to make salmon more known as the company is planning to serve salmon in their many cafeterias. IKEA plans to build 25 warehouses in different parts of India, which may lead to the Indian middle class starting to purchase more salmon. 25 million middle class Indians eating one kilo salmon a year, equals 25 000 tons of salmon. That is my dream, but we still have a long way to go, concludes Seafood Council’s project manager for India, Yogi Shergill.

blue revolution center pushes
aquaculture farther offshore

Marine Harvest and researchers plan to develop a floating laboratory for radical exposed fish farming technology to help the sector grow sustainably.

The Norwegian aquaculture industry has the potential to grow its production volumes five-fold from 2010 levels to 5 million tons by 2050. But it has been hindered lately by biological conditions. Norwegian salmon will increase only 2-4% in volumes this year to 1.2 million tons -- still below 2012 levels – partly because of sea lice, according to the Norwegian Seafood Council.

“If there was a solution for sea lice, we could have grown with the given technology,” said Alf-Helge Aarskog, Marine Harvest chief executive during its third quarter results presentation this past November. “We will need radical new technology.”

Offshore Research Barge

One potential answer is to move the industry further offshore to more exposed sites. Norway’s Marine Harvest, the world’s largest producer of Atlantic salmon, has joined forces with SINTEF Ocean and the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) on developing a new research platform, the Blue Revolution Center, which will test new aquaculture technologies in the highly weather-exposed sites of Frøya.

As part of that vision, the trio has sought six technology-focused Research and Development licenses from the Norwegian Fisheries Directorate to build a dual laboratory-auditorium on a specially designed floating fish feed barge that could host up to 30 visitors and test new types of technology for raising salmon farther offshore. Marine Harvest currently has two of its most exposed fish farm sites nearby at Tennøya and Valøyan connected to the barge. In the future, the center could also be tied in to test Beck, a new type of subsea cage.

“This is to test technology that otherwise would not have been invented,” said Ragnar Joensen, Marine Harvest group manager technology. “Many of these new technology companies don’t have a place to test.” “This is also an opportunity for universities to take students out to the fish, rather than just teach them in Trondheim or Oslo,” he added.

Among the different concepts that could be tested at the offshore lab are subsea fish feeding concepts with submerged hoses and condensed mooring systems. Currently most fish feeding occurs at the surface via long floating hoses, taking up much of the area from fishermen. Another research area is remote-operated subsea drones capable of swimming back and forth on a line. These could monitor fish swimming patterns and see, for example, if the fish are stressed after a delousing treatment.

“I think there is a lot of potential using drones,” said Bård Wathne Tveiten, SINTEF Ocean vice president. “You get real time indicators for fish welfare. You can change the operational conditions in an instant.”

Marine Harvest, SINTEF Ocean, and NMBU are developing a new research platform, the Blue Revolution Center, to test new aquaculture technologies in exposes sites.

Happy Fish

SINTEF Ocean will contribute with technology, IT and sensor competence, while Marine Harvest will be responsible for management and operations on this project. NMBU, which specializes on biology, health, veterinary medicine and bio production, will have a particular responsibility for research on fish welfare and health at the Blue Revolution Center. Genetics and breeding could be among the future research projects. “There are many interesting areas,” said Øystein Lie, NMBU dean, in an NMBU article. “It could be relevant for example to exploit new brood stock in these aquaculture facilities, and perhaps create locally sourced feed for the facilities.”

The new research center could become a game changer for the development of new and innovative aquaculture concepts. This is a relatively new area for SINTEF Ocean at the Marine Technology Center, which has primarily focused on development, verification and advanced testing of oil and gas, offshore renewables, and maritime concepts, according to Tveiten.

The interest for advanced analyses and model testing in the aquaculture industry started a few years back after hurricane Berit pounded the west coast of Norway, damaging many fish cages and triggering fish escapes. Testing at the Blue Revolution Center would be even more relevant now as fish farmers push their cages farther out into more exposed waters and harsh environments to avoid sea lice infestations. Moreover, it would take place on the fish’s premises in their natural environment.

“The technology has to meet the biology at some stage,” said Tveiten. “We don’t have salt water (at SINTEF Ocean’s lab in Trondheim). The question is whether these are places where we have happy fish.”

Subsea Cages

The Blue Revolution Center’s technology Research and Development licenses are currently under consideration by the Fisheries Directorate. Separately, Marine Harvest submitted an application for six development licenses last year for testing up to fi ve 100-meter long, spiral-shaped Beck cages. Each steel cage would hold up to 200,000 fish, totaling one million if all fi ve are approved. The directorate has pledged to award free development concessions for up to 15 years to projects that promote technology that can solve the environmental and acreage challenges facing the aquaculture sector.

The Beck enclosed cage system could potentially stop salmon escapes and reduce sea lice by submerging the fish to louse-free zones. Sea lice typically thrive at the surface, which is a problem for the more conventional farms closer to shore. When biological conditions warrant, the Beck cage sinks the fish lower to reduce lice exposure. The cage can also be submerged for rough weather and wave conditions to protect the steel and net structure.

Marine Harvest hopes to have tested fi ve Beck cages over a six-year period starting with a prototype in 2018. The company has applied for four out of the more than 40 submitted development license applications, including the Egg, Marine Donut, and converted dry bulk carrier. Marine Harvest recently received an initial positive feedback for its egg-shaped closed cage system developed in partnership with Hague Aqua.

As of January, the directorate had fully approved two concepts under the development licenses: Salmar’s Ocean Farming, a deep sea-farming concept that resembles a floating petroleum platform, and Nordlaks’ ship-shaped Havfarm.

fish vessels go electric

The Norwegian aquaculture and fishing industry has joined the green shipping wave with a number of pioneering electric fleet initiatives.

In 2015, the Norwegian maritime industry launched the DNV GL-led public private initiative, the Green Coastal Shipping Program. The idea was to encourage research and development of green technology concepts in the country’s shipping sector. Together with 25 partners from the Norwegian maritime industry and authorities, they presented fi ve pilot projects, mostly within oil and gas and cargo transport.

However, one of the pilots targets the aquaculture segment with an environmentally friendly fish farm support vessel. ABB has worked with the Norwegian Coastal Shipowners Association for the past year with Trondheim-based shipowner Egil Ulvans Rederi on developing a hybrid battery powered concept that is safer, more cost effective, and environmentally beneficial.

Green Fish Farm Vessel

The objective of the pilot project is to define how to best use a battery in combination with a combustion engine to make an energy efficient hybrid propulsion system. The concept is based on a 70-meter long vessel that can be converted to fit either a hybrid LNG and battery powered propulsion system or a diesel-plus-battery solution. Both concepts would cut down on NOx, SOx and CO2 emissions. CO2 alone would be reduced by 240 tons per year, the equivalent of 130 cars.

ABB foresees using batteries in combination with marine diesel oil could lower both capital and operational expenditures. The vessel would rely on battery power to shave power peaks when loading and unloading at sea and absorb load changes from blasts and swells. A battery back-up solution would also create safer operations by reducing the risk of engine failure and serving as back up. Best of all, it would meet the growing customer requirement for sustainable solutions.

“Aquaculture companies are supposed to ask for these types of vessels because of the green and safe side,” said Jorulf Nergård, ABB vice president business development and short sea shipping. “The risk to cause damage to cages in the case of a blackout in the worst case with the worst conditions is reduced. Insurance costs could then be lower. So there are lots of issues that should be appreciated in new requests for vessels.”

ABB has started phase two of the project and is working on getting a shipyard to build or convert a vessel this year. The proposed concept vessel would be large enough to handle the more complex and demanding operations offshore that have come with the growing aquaculture sector. The trend in the industry has been towards larger fish farms in exposed waters, more delousing on wellboats, and larger-size smolt grown onshore to help the industry grow more sustainably.

Social Impact

Grovfjord Mekanisk Verksted has similarly seen a growing need among its fish farming customers for sustainable and environmentally friendly solutions. As a result, the Norwegian shipyard has developed a zero emission workboat for fish farms called GMV Zero. According to Arnold Hansen, the leader behind the project, it would be the world’s first fully battery powered vessel of this type -- a good sales argument for fish farmers wanting to have a green profile.

“Over the last half year there has been greater interest,” said Hansen. “In addition to the elimination of harmful emissions, we see a savings in operation expenditures, both in maintenance of the diesel motors which have to be changed every 5-10 years and the costs related to diesel and luboil. One fish farmer, for example, delivers salmon to a US chain that is absolutely explicit that their product must be as sustainable as possible.”

According to Ashley Bouldin, engagement planning director at US-based marketing agency The Food Group, there are new food consumption drivers among the largest population in the US, the Millennials and Generation X between 18-50 years old. Before, consumers focused on price, taste, and convenience. Now the young “idealist” generation is also concerned about social impact.

“They are looking to buy from companies that are giving back and are responsible,” said Bouldin during her presentation at the Norwegian Seafood Council Aquaculture Conference 2016 in Oslo.

Electric Workboats

The idea for GMV Zero originally started several years ago as way to eliminate the exposure of the workers on board to carcinogenic diesel exhaust particle emissions. Since then, the prices of batteries have dropped dramatically and the number of fish farms along the Norwegian coast with electricity from the grid has increased to about 85% of all farm locations. Both factors have contributed to making 100% battery operation feasible. The prototype vessel will first start operations for Norwegian salmon producers Northern Light Salmon and Sørrollnes Fisk.

GMV is currently building the 14-metre long vessel, which will service two fish farms over a 15-18 months’ test period starting by June. The vessel will test all stages of farming and collect data on energy requirements for various work operations. The expectations are that GMV Zero could save at least NOK 190,000 per year in operational expenditures compared to a diesel-powered boat and reduce CO2 and NOx emissions by 113 tons and 1.15 tons respectively. The ship is designed to service 12 cages up to fi ve nautical miles from its base for a full day without recharging.

GMV Zero’s catamaran is similar to electric fishing boat Karoline by Selfa Arctic, which was nominated for the innovation prize at Nor- Fishing Conference 2016 in Trondheim. Nordic Wildfish received Nor-Fishing’s environmental prize by the Norwegian Fisheries Directorate for its energy-effi cient freezer technology and method for processing catch on-board its trawlers Roaldsnes and Molnes.

Nordic Wildfish is also pioneering green initiatives in wild catch with its new EcoFive (Eco-friendly Fishing Vessel) trawler concept, which relies on LNG power combined with batteries. The Norwegian fishing company has worked with ship designer Seacon, Finnøy Gear & Propeller and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology on designing an energy effi cient hull and propeller system optimized for towing speeds and roughly 30% lower energy costs.

profitable sustainable fish farming

Norwegian fish farmers are incorporating the UN Sustainable Development Goals into their business strategy. Even fish sludge could profi tably save the environment.

Nearly 200 countries have signed the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) spanning poverty to partnership. The challenge has been how to incorporate them practically into businesses practice given that there are more than 800 standards for reporting sustainable development and no one wants a red bottom line.

“People want a low carbon society, but not a low income,” said Idar Kreutzer, leader of the Green Competitiveness Committee, during the launch of the DNV GL report Future of Spaceship Earth: The Sustainable Development Goals Business Frontiers, this past October.

The iFarm

Seafood producer Cermaq was one of the 17 different companies contacted by DNV GL to present business case scenarios for achieving each of the 17 goals by 2030. The Norwegian subsidiary of Mitsubishi has worked the past year on implementing five focus areas based on sustainability: SDG #2 healthy nutritional food; #14 thriving oceans; #8 people leadership; #12 responsible production, and #13 climate action.

Cermaq has for example used a new technology called iFarm to solve the challenges that restrict growth in salmon farming through a high-tech sorting method. This is in line with Sustainable Development Goal #14, also known as Life Below Water, which focuses on the conservation and sustainable use of the oceans, seas and marine resources.

The sensors of iFarm have computer vision that can recognize salmon based on their dot patterns. The technology then registers the number of fish, size, amount of sea lice, and possible signs of disease. The company has applied for 10 Norwegian development licenses to mature the technology into an industrial product.

“We can reduce treatment when we treat only the fish that has lice,” said Cermaq chief executive Geir Molvik. “Similarly, we sort on the basis of weight and remove the fish ready for harvest without stressing the remaining fish.”

“This is a technological leap for cage-based salmon farming, where we shift from groupbased operations to individual registration and treatment.”

Under another sustainable initiative, Cermaq is focusing on responsible production (SDG #12) through its Pincoy Project in Chile. The company has partnered on Pincoy with Skretting, Aquagen, Blue Genomics, Pharmaq, Centrovet, Blumar, Ventisqueros to combat SRS (Septicemic Rickettsial Syndrome) to reduce the use of antibiotics by 50%. The deadly bacterial disease is responsible for the majority of salmon mortalities in Chile.

Green Fish Farming

Projects such as iFarm and Pincoy deal with one of the main challenges threatening the aquaculture industry, i.e. sea lice and fish disease. But there are still other threats. Fish escapes, access to raw materials and resource management, acreage conflicts, and organic waste also challenge the sector’s sustainability. The integration of different renewable energies and the wise use of the generated organic waste, also known as sludge, could become a new business opportunity for fish farmers, according to CMR Prototech.

The Bergen-based research group has been working on a solution called Green Fish Farming (GFF) aiming to achieve zero emission to air and water. The GFF concept applies to both onshore and sea-based closed fish farms. Depending on the size and location of the closed fish farms, the GFF concept can integrate different renewable technologies to generate power, such as wind, solar, wave, and hydro.

Currently closed fish farms buy oxygen to oxygenate the fish in sea cages, often at a high price. The GFF concept aims incorporate an electrolysis unit to locally produce needed oxygen and also hydrogen for use in the maritime and transport sectors, such as local boats, or to commercialize it for other external customers.

“I have not seen it elsewhere,” said Crina Ilea, CMR Protetch senior researcher. “Our preliminary calculations show that this is a very good business case for large fish farms.”

Valuable By-Products

In addition to producing power, oxygen and hydrogen, the GFF aims to transform the generated sludge deposits into valuable by-products, such as gas, oil, char, energy and fertilizer. The concept could produce biofuels and biogas via anaerobic digesters or thermal decomposition with additional help from algae, microalgae and shells from biomass farms or grow vegetable via aquaponics. According to a Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research report, the fish farming industry could produce 70-190 million cubic meters of methane biogas, equivalent up to 2Twh energy, from collecting and using all the sludge from 1 million tons of salmon annually.

Another option is to convert the generated sludge into bio-fuels for greener industries. Norcem, for example, last year tested dried fish waste from Flatanger Settefisk to power its cement plant in Tysfjord. That saves the energy-intensive aluminum and cement industries from having to rely on fossil fuels. These methods of recycling sludge also avoid the problem of having to either burn it and pollute the air or leaving the large quantities of fish waste deposits at the bottom of the sea, ruining sea life growth there.

“I would not be surprised to see that in the near future they will be forced by EU regulations to either close their farms or to pay for polluting the water,” said Ilea.

CMR Prototech received pre-project funds from Losna Seafood and NCE Maritime Clean Tech to study the possibilities of integrating the GFF concept in their specific cases and fi nd new ways of collaborating. This February, it applied for a local grant from Regional Forskningsfond Vestlandet for a project to efficiently handle the sludge generated by closed fish farms. CMR Prototech plans to collaborate with Norwegian and international partners to help commercialize the GFF concept.

new ventures in well boats

Seafood company Marine Harvest is diversifying into the well boat business. Even oil service vessel owners are hoping to capitalize on the recent seafood boom.

The global well boat market currently consists of about 125 vessels, with Norway as the largest market followed by Chile. The sector has been experiencing a period of rapid growth – with 16 new orders expected to be delivered in 2016-2017 – as demand for new and large vessels grows.

Vessel use in salmon farming systems has been increasing due to increased smolt transportation, sea lice, grading of fish, freshwater treatments and harvesting, according to Alf-Helge Aarskog, Marine Harvest chief executive. In addition, the aquaculture shipping market is currently fragmented and dominated by mainly familyowned shipping companies in Norway.

“We see significant scope for integration in this area of our operations,” said Aarskog.

Havyard has proposed conversions of its PSVs into live fish carriers.

Aquaculture Shipping Joint Venture

This was the backdrop for Norway’s Marine Harvest establishing a joint venture this year with Deep Sea Supply called DEES Aquaculture Shipping. The new company will manage a new fleet of well boats, harvest boats, feed vessels and service vessels that will both help streamline production and cut costs associated with the area. The 50:50 joint venture will also be able to secure attractive financing with its long-term charters and strong shareholder base, as well as compete for external contracts.
“I am pleased that the aquaculture shipping joint venture has contracted two new orders: one well boat and one harvest vessel,” said Aarskog, in connection with the presentation of second quarter results this August. “This represents an interesting opportunity to reduce cost and at the same time improve biology for Marine Harvest.”
The first vessel, a NOK 227 million multipurpose well boat, will be delivered in the third quarter of 2017 for use on its Canadian farming operations. The other, a NOK 179 million harvest vessel, will be ready by the first quarter of 2018. The vessel will be able to kill and transport approximately 40,000 GWT annually. The joint venture is planning to utilize the harvest vessel in Marine Harvest’s Norwegian farming operations.

Convert Oil Service Vessels

Norwegian ship owners are also looking to capitalize on the tight market for well boats and secure better profits. A recent survey by iLaks.no showed more than 40% earnings (before interest and tax) margin on well boats by some of the bigger companies such as Rostein and Sølvtrans, as well as Bømlo Brønnbåtservice and Seivåg Shipping. That could offer hope for the struggling offshore sector. Salmon prices have reached historic highs. Meanwhile oil prices are in a slump and there are about 96 offshore vessels laid up without contracts. The majority of those, about 56, are oil service platform supply vessels (PSV) that potentially could be converted to well boats.

Norwegian shipyard Havyard has investigated the possibility and proposed offering rebuilds of its PSVs into well boats. According to Trygve Solaas, Havyard vice president projects within sales, conversion and repair, it would cost about NOK 100 million to convert a 2,000 cubic meter PSV in about four months’ time into a live fish carrier. That could compete with the 5-6 months’ average outfi tting time for a new hull – partly because of all the other machinery that also needs be added.

“This could be used in Scotland and Chile, but we thought at fi rst it would be appropriate for the big problems with unemployed tonnage (in Norway),” said Solaas. “We have built live fish carriers before from scratch and have a lot of experience with conversions. This is less invasive than what Farstad is doing, but the base philosophy is to convert unused tonnage for other purposes.”

Delousing on PSVs

Norwegian ship owner Farstad made its first foray into aquaculture with a test project this year using PSV Far Server. The vessel was outfitted with environmental technology that is revolutionizing delousing of farmed fish. The company partnered with Fjordlaks Aqua, SeaSide, and Optimar Stette on a chemicalfree method using warm water to fl ush sea lice off salmon.

Ålesund-based Farstad has traditionally served the petroleum sector. However, its current anchor handling and PSVs are experiencing a low fleet utilization rate amidst low oil prices. It is important to look at new possibilities in the current market, according to Karl-Johan Bakken, Farstad chief executive.

“Our competence lends itself to the offshore industries,” said Bakken. “The question is whether this can be a side business.”

The use of warm water for delousing is not new per se, but the method of controlling the treatment temperature and the fish’s containment time is. Using Optimar Stette’s new OptiLice method, delousing occurs as a continuous process under high capacity and with no discharge. The process water is fi ltered and lice destroyed. Tests showed it was possible to delouse 100 tons of fish per hour onboard Far Server, which was placed next to the offshore salmon farms.

“We are extremely pleased with the results of the collaborative project,” said Amund Pedersen, Fjordlaks Aqua project leader. “Optimar Stette’s method represents a significant improvement compared to alternative solutions. Fish maintain their slime coating and absorb nutrients shortly after delousing as opposed to chemical treatment methods.”

Facts:

Norwegian well boat companies: Rostein, Solvtrans, Norsk Fisketransport, Frøy Sjøtransport, Nordlaks Transport, Seigrunn, Seivåg Shipping, Napier, Mowi Star, Gerda Sæle, Intership, and Aqua Star Invest.
The Norwegian Coastal Shipping Companies’ members comprise a fl eet of 55 well boats, 31 feed boats and 33 service vessels. Well boats in Norway transport 1.3 million slaughtered fish and 320 million smolt annually.

  • Management consultancy
  • Certifi cation and technical inspections of production facilities
Aquaculture Site Suitability Surveys

The suitability of a site for fish farming depends on many environmental and physical factors which influence the design and construction of facilities that enable efficient and sustainable operation.

The amount of fish that can be produced from an area and the amount of local environmental pollution is determined by natural conditions such as bottom topography and water currents, in combination with the size of production and type of production system.

A site suitability survey is carried out to assess the suitability of the specifically selected site for sustainable fish farming and for engineering of moorings and cage systems and any environmental or other risks there may be at the site.

Data collection and field work:

Bathymetry
Accurate knowledge of the depths on site is vital to ensure sufficient depths under the cage nets, to calculate the appropriate length of mooring lines and to ensure that rising mooring lines do not come into contact with the seabed. Akvaplan-Niva uses an echo sounder to determine sea bed topography.

Sediment type, quality and benthic-fauna analysis
A grab is used to take sediment samples. The sediments are analysed for organic carbon, nitrogen, grain size, colour, thickness of organic layer, visual fauna and smell.

The distribution and abundance of organisms, species diversity and community structure are analysed in order to provide a base-line for future monitoring of change.

Hydrography measurements and water quality
Measurements of temperature, salinity, oxygen, nutrients and conductivity are taken through the water column. These vertical profiles give information regarding the stratification of the water column and whether oxygen deficiency occurs at certain depths. Akvaplan-niva looks for existence of thermoclines, sudden temperature changes and identify minimum and maximum levels.

Current and dispersal measurements
Akvaplan-niva studies current and dispersal measurements for speed, direction and change in direction of water currents. Current meters are used to measure current speed and direction in conjunction with drogues to measure current dispersal (mixing).

Wave climate measurements or modelling, and meteorological data
Accurate determination of wave climate for determining type of cage system and design, the best orientation for the cages, required type and strength of nets and engineering of the moorings.
Aquaculture R&D

The Aquaculture R&D department at Akvaplanniva conducts R&D projects with focus on new aquaculture species, new and improved production technology. Their aim is to ensure that the aquaculture research delivered is both of high scientifi c quality and relevant to the aquaculture industry in their effort to develop a profitable and sustainable production. The Aquaculture R&D department team works closely with the aquaculture industry in its effort to make scientific knowledge applicable in real “daily life” situations at the fish farm. Through this, the team functions as a “bridge-builder” between academia and the aquaculture industry.

Developmental biology
The aim of this field of research is to identify important criteria for validating quality of juvenile fish and better understand how these are linked to developmental biology. Fish development is a continuum of changes that include gametogenesis, fertilisation, formation of the embryonic axis and the vital organs, their differentiation and mass reorganisation during metamorphosis and sexual maturation.

Growth physiology
Growth is a highly complex process in fish and is influenced by numerous biotic and abiotic factors. Of prime interest to the aquaculture industry are the factors that can be controlled under culture conditions in order to optimise production. The Akvaplan-niva aquaculture research team focuses on physiological processes influencing fish growth and reproduction, and their interactions with the ambient environment.

Improved production regimes
The Akvaplan-niva research activity links findings from controlled laboratory experiments with observed responses under full scale aquaculture conditions. Knowledge gained in this area of research aids in the determination of how to correctly manipulate environmental factors to optimise production, the selection of the correct strain or subpopulation of a fish species according to local environmental conditions, and the design of farming protocols that will optimize the potential of biologicalenvironmental interactions.

New and improved production methods
The aquaculture research team is involved in several national and international projects aiming at optimizing the culture of Atlantic salmon, lumpfish, Atlantic halibut, Arctic charr, sea bass, turbot and Atlantic cod. All these projects are user controlled utilizing the tight connection the aquaculture research team has with the aquaculture industry both in Norway and abroad.

supplier of fresh norwegian salmon

Bravo Seafood delivers fresh Norwegian salmon by trucks to customers in Europe and by air to Asia several times a week. The Asian market is a key market for Bravo Seafood.

Qiao Chen is Market Director for Asia. Her responsibility is to make sure that Bravo-fish of high quality and right size arrives on time on the other side of the world, preferably as soon after slaughter and packing as possible!

All this requires good planning before shipping and efficient tracking of shipments along the way. One must also be quick to react in the event of unforeseen circumstances. Bravo Seafood’s strength lies in its ability to organize and to be available 24/7. The company focuses on good service and customer satisfaction.

Qiao is Chinese, and speaks several different languages. She understands well customers’ needs and their quality requirements. Qiao says that Norwegian salmon is very popular in Asia for different reasons.

“The reddish meat is one of the most important factors. In addition, salmon is also very healthy and trendy. Its Norwegian origin is an extra guarantee for premium quality.”

Different customers – different requirements

That customers in Asia mainly want big size salmon is nothing new, but each customer also has their own quality requirements which have to be met. Bravo Seafood can supply fresh fish from its fish farmer partners from north to south along the Norwegian coast, and seeks to meet requirements to ensure that customers get the fish they want.

It is a long journey to the Far East. Bravo Seafood’s transport contractors ensure that shipments are loaded onto the right plane and the loads are taken care of all along the way. Salmon from the cold Norwegian fjords is a fresh food product. Many aspects such as temperature and time are critical factors and need to be taken into account during the long journey.

Bright future for Norwegian cod

High prices combined with high quotas translate into record-breaking catch values for cod, which means a bright future for Norwegian cod fishermen. On the other hand, tougher competition for the commodity and the advantages associated with processing of the fish close to the market means increased competition for Norwegian value adding industry.



In economic terms, cod is the most important wild-caught species in the Norwegian fishery industry, and last year's catch value shattered all previous records. The combination of large cod quotas and high prices explain why the value on first hand never has been higher. During periods with low quotas, the price fishermen have received per kilogram cod has been higher than we see today, yet the combination of high quotas and high prices is unique. Why is this happening and what are the consequences for the Norwegian fishing industry?
Production in Norway

Distance to the market and available technology have limited the types of products the Norwegian fishery industry can produce. Historically, much of the Norwegian cod has therefore been processed into either frozen filet products or conventional products such as salted fish, dried and salted fish and stockfish. A long shelf life is a common denominator for these product categories. This means that the products can be sold year-round, even when there are major seasonal variations in fishing. Because sellers have been unable to create awareness of the difference between cod and other, less expensive whitefish species such as Alaska pollockwhen the quotas have been high, low prices have been necessary in order to sell large volumes of frozen fillets. The consequence of this is that consumers have purchased cod because it was cheap, not because it was cod. This has meant that cod prices have often plummeted when quotas are high.

One challenge that is apparent in the production of conventional cod products, or "bacalhau", as it is referred to in many consumer markets, is that such products tie up capital due to their long production process and seasonal demand. Cod is usually fished in the period from January to May, with at least two-thirds of the demand concentrated around Christmas and Easter. This means that much of the fish is often left in storage warehouses or in production for four to six months. Therefore, access to capital constrains how much cod the industry can purchase, without selling first. These two factors are keys in explaining why cod prices have historically dropped significantly when quotas increased. However, when the quotas were low, buyers who wanted cod because they prefer cod had to compete for the available cod, which drove prices upward.

Quota increase

In the summer of 2012, the International Council for Exploration of the Sea published stock estimates showing a record peak in Northeast Atlantic cod stocks. The Norwegian cod quota increased from 340,000 tonnes in 2012 to 454,000 tonnes of cod in 2013, causing a sharp decline in prices. The price fishermen received for frozen cod fell from NOK 18.5 in the second quarter of 2012 to NOK 14 per kilo in the fourth quarter. Fishermen were therefore forced to expend significantly more resources to harvest approximately the same value from the sea.

Tougher competition

Globalisation of the world market for frozen fish led to tougher competition for the cod. Access to fish was no longer an advantage as modern freezing and thawing technology, combined with low-cost logistics, meant that the fish could be processed independent of the catch and consumer location. Low-cost countries such as China thus enjoyed a major advantage in labour-intensive product categories, resulting in higher yield and less investments. The competition from China and other low-cost countries made significant inroads, substantially reducing the number of Norwegian whitefish companies throughout the 2000s. Norwegian industry therefore lacked the capacity to process all the cod that was caught, while still making money. The solution turned out to be export of fresh and frozen whole cod. In 2013, 200 000 tonnes of cod (measured in round weightvolume) was exported as a raw material, with Europe as the largest market.

New products

This development yielded several benefits. The European processing industry is located close to both the market and the resource, where wages are usually significantly lower than in Norway. This means a lot of flexibility in which raw materials can be used, and which products can be produced. Processing companies in a number of EU countries can therefore produce and sell fresh, frozen and thawed products of both fresh and frozen commodities. This development contributed to the introduction of many new products in the market; at the same time as low commodity prices help stimulate sales. Likewise, shelf life improves when the cod is filleted before, rather than after, transport to the market. Norwegian cod has therefore contributed to many jobs abroad in recent years, and to an increasing degree in Europe.

When cod is sent straight out of the country, access to capital does not limit how much the industry can pay to fishermen. This development contributed to the emergence of new products which consumers are willing to pay more for than frozen fillets, increased demand, build-up of production capacity in Europe and gradually higher prices. All of these factors have helped nudge prices up to record levels, despite a continued high cod quota, viewed in a historical perspective.

Fishermen are the winners

Competition from the foreign processing industry which purchases the raw commodity has contributed to a higher first-hand price, which has made the fishing fleet the big winner overall in Norway. This explains why profitability in the coastal fleet and the ocean going fishing vessel fleet are at historic highs, and the values of the fishing quotas that are traded among the shipping companies are record-high. The competitive situation has made it particularly demanding for the Norwegian processing industry to make money on value adding. Proximity to the resource can yield advantages in certain product categories, while the distance to the market creates major challenges in other product categories. Heightened competition for the raw material, constraints related to high wage costs and distance to markets mean that only a limited selection of products can be produced profitably in Norway.

The consequence of this is that only the best and most agile fishery industry companies will survive and make money on processing a limited selection of cod products here in Norway. Salted fish, dried and salted fish and the stockfish industry have good prospects when it comes to profitability, but must prepare themselves for a lower production volume in the future. Similarly, technological development could make it profitable to produce frozen fillet products in Norway. It is most likely that production of fresh cod fillets will take place near the market, as that yields a number of advantages.

The Norwegian theologian and poet PetterDass, who was a parish priest in Alstadhaug in Northern Norway from 1689 until his death in 1707, was famous for his saying "Skuldtorskenossfeile,hvahavde vi da" (If the cod should fail us, what then?)". Cod has been important for Norway for thousands of years, because it has created jobs and wealth. With increased competition for the commodity, cod fishermen in Norway earn more and more, while some of the processing is being outsourced. This means that Norwegian cod is more than just a tasty treat internationally; it also contributes to creating jobs and prosperity far outside our own borders.



Company

salted, smoked herring,
mackerel & salmon

Established in 1979, Njardar became a joint stock company (AS) in 1995. The company is ideally situated on the west coast of Norway, near one of the best fishing grounds for cod, herring and mackerel. Njardar AS specializes in the production of salted herring and mackerel, smoked herring and mackerel, herring products and clipfish (dried, salted cod).

Traditional Family Business

Njardar’s holding company, Knut Nærø Sild og Fiskeforretning, is a family business now in its fourth generation. The company started producing cod liver oil and clipfish in 1901, and opened its fi rst smokehouse in 1927. Njardar’s fish products are made according to the traditional methods of its holding company.

Slowfood Presidia Products: Golden-Smoked Herring, Silver-Cured Herring & Hard- Cured Herring Negro

Herring has a long tradition in Norway. Herring bones from 600 AD have been found in settlements along the coast of Norway. Later sources give an indication of how important herring was – the Pope gave a dispensation from a fishing ban on Sundays in the 11th century and Magnus Lagabøte had detailed directions for herring fishing in the 12th century.

All herring that is to be smoked is first salted. The golden-smoked herring is hung when wet in a drying and smoking room. The smoking process takes 6–7 days. The silver-cured herring is smoked with the finest ingredients – namely, alder tree logs. The fish is dried and smoked at the same time. The entire process lasts 2–3 days. The hard cured negro process takes 10–12 days.

Approved Producer

Njardar has been approved by Norsk Tradisjonsfisk to produce herring according to traditional conservation methods.

Export Markets

Njardar’s main export markets are:

  • The Mediterranean countries

Company

seafood from norway

Seaborn AS has a unique position as a sales organization for Norwegian fish farmers. The company’s trademarks are Norwegian salmon and fjord trout.

Company Philosophy

Seaborn was established in 2001 by a number of small and medium-sized family-owned companies with a long experience and tradition of fish farming through generations. The company’s fish farmers are very proud of the products that are being delivered all over the world and of the many meals being provided in 52 countries.

Seaborn’s 46 fish farms are located along the coast of Western Norway and in the Lofoten area. The farmers have unique local identities, and they are proud of the values they create in their respective districts in Norway. Seaborn is headquartered in Bergen and the company also has a sales office in Sweden. It has become one of the largest exporters in Norway in record time.

Seaborn has a unique position as a sales organization for Norwegian fish farmers, serving as the link between the market and the producers thanks to its professional and dynamic team who is available around the clock. This gives the company flexibility to supply both fresh and frozen salmon and trout all year round. Seaborn believes in its products and in the people involved throughout the process.

Quality and the environment

Only healthy fish eat, grow and maintain a high quality. Health and contentment are closely linked, which is why profitability throughout the value chain, from roe right through to the dinner plate, is dependent on the well-being of the fish. Clean water, the best feed, plenty of space in the cages and consistently good hygiene ensure good fish health without the use of medication. In addition, stringent regulations have been adopted to secure consumers’ right to good and healthy food.

A good quality control network is developed in the following manner: The authorities check that the regulations are complied with and that fish health is good. The fish farmers’ own control systems ensure good quality and revenues. Harvesting and packing stations and carriers are responsible for maintaining top quality all the way to the market.

Seaborn monitors all stages of the process. It is company responsibility to ensure that its customers are satisfied. Finally, the customer decides whether the fish meets his/her expectations, which is the crucial test. A traceability system and a certificate of quality enable everyone to check each stage of the value chain. Food safety can be documented all the way from the parent fish throughout the entire value chain for every delivery from Seaborn.

Seaborn prepares a complete quality document for every delivery, which provides full information about the producer, biological data, production data and fish feed. Seaborn has GLOBAL G.A.P. Certification for the whole chain. Growth in seafood exports is not possible unless Seaborn ensures that seafood production is carried out in an environmentally sustainable manner. Marco Polo is the European Union´s funding program for projects that shift freight transport from the road to sea, rail and inland waterways. This means fewer trucks on the road, less congestion, less pollution and CO² emissions, and more reliable and efficient transport of goods. A high percentage of Seaborn’s transport services are by rail and sea.

Seaborn’s development is based on close collaboration with the relevant ministries, industry branch organizations and research institutions. The company is also a member of “Grønn Punkt Norge”, (Green Dot Norway), which is responsible for developing, organizing and operating recycling schemes for used packaging including plastic, EPS (styrofoam), carton packaging and beverage cartons. “Grønn Punkt Norge” guarantees that all packaging is either recycled or recovered as energy.

Norwegian Trout & Salmon

Seaborn’s Norwegian Salmon is the original Norwegian salmon, Salmon Salar, which belongs to the North Atlantic salmon stocks. Since the Ice Age, these fish have migrated to the Atlantic Ocean from their breeding grounds in Norwegian rivers. The rivers are cold year round because of the inflow of water from the glaciers and melting snow.

Over thousands of years in a demanding climate, the salmon has evolved robust genes that are well adapted to the ice-cold water. Farmed salmon has been developed from genetic materials from Norway’s best salmon rivers. Contentment is the basis for growth and quality. Seaborn’s fish farmers give the fish plenty of space in the marine cages and the best feed on the market.

The success story of Norwegian fish farming all started with the Norwegian Fjord Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). This species thrives extremely well in the Norwegian fjords where the rivers swell with water from the glaciers and melting snow. This ensures lower salt content and excellent growing conditions for trout. The pioneers of fish-farming in Norway started farming trout and some never left it. The experience gained from farming Norwegian Fjord Trout laid the foundations for the technology that made the farming of Norwegian Salmon possible ten years later.

The bright pink color and white marbling of its meat give an added dimension to the eating experience, and make it a feast for the eye on a beautifully laid table. Like salmon, Norwegian Fjord Trout is in demand among master chefs as well as in private kitchens.

Company

quality seafood supplier

The first Skaar company was established more than 100 years ago when Jon Skaar Senior started a fish business in Måløy. Over the years, the company has grown to become one of Norway’s largest exporters of fish. Skaar Norway AS now farms its own trout – and trades farmed fish from its headquarters in Florø.



The Skaar company has for generations provided world markets with fish of the best quality – fresh and frozen salmon and trout – all year round. Today its supplies come from independent fish farmers at various locations along Norway’s long coastline.


The company also produces its own trout at Svanøy Havbruk (fish farm), which has a production capacity of 5000 tons per year. Its farming company is in charge of the entire process – from its own broodstock, to roe, smolt and trout of 4 kg or more, ready for slaughter. All is of the highest quality.



In 2016, Skaar Norway / Svanøy Havbruk has established a research & development license for trout farming and roe production for consumption. Its own roe packing line in Florø has through test production in 2016 delivered roe for consumption to the Japanese market, Sujiko and Ikura style. This license will be operating at full capacity in 2017.

marine environmental monitoring
and impact assessment

Uni Research in Bergen is a broadly based, multidisciplinary research institute with 440 highly-qualified employees from 34 nations. The company carries out research and development on biotechnology, health, environment, climate, energy and social sciences. The Institute has six departments and one subsidiary, Uni Research Polytec.



Uni Research undertakes marine environmental monitoring and impact assessment with an experience that spans more than four decades. The projects aim for sustainable development in both coastal and offshore areas.

One of the main objectives for the integrated environmental and aquaculture research is to provide critical knowledge for supporting the environment-friendly growth of the aquaculture industry, the sustainable management of the environment and its resources, as well as to actively find and explore sustainable use of new marine biomasses. The research contributes to the development of a circular bio-economy and to the blue-green revolution.

Closed fish farming facilities

The unit SAM-Marin conducts marine Uni Research is in the forefront of research on closed and semi-closed fi sh farming facilities. Over the last years the institute has made signifi cant contributions to the development of such systems, focusing on optimizing growth and securing good health for the fi sh. Results are very promising both regarding robustness and welfare while constraining key challenges such as losses, escape and lice.

Uni Research is a partner in the national Centre for research-based innovation in close containment systems – SFI-Ctrl AQUA, which provides detailed knowledge on how fish farmers will benefit from implementing closed systems for part of the farmed-fish’s life. Nofi ma is hosting the SFI.

To develop innovations and build capacity for the aquaculture industry, Uni Research and the University of Bergen collaborate at the Centre for Sustainable Aquaculture Innovations. Here novel ways of using the environment to modulate biological processes are studied, for instance how different types of wavelengths of light can lead to the best possible production, robustness and welfare of farmed salmon. Novel analytical tools and technologies that industry can use to monitor the health, welfare and growth of fish in various environments will be created.

Escaped farmed fish and sea lice
Key challenges such as escaped farmed fish and sea lice are part of the core research in aquaculture biology. Based on results from long-term studies in rivers and fjords in Western-Norway, the research group contributes to knowledge-based understanding of complex interactions between the aquatic environment and the aquaculture activities and to propose mitigation approaches and actions. These include, among others, giving advice on when initiating spring delousing in farms in order to optimize the effect for migrating wild smolts, and on methods to efficiently remove escaped farmed fish from rivers. This research is conducted through a number of projects supported by both the aquaculture companies and government agencies, in a joint effort to promote sustainable aquaculture.
Omega-3 rich algae for the fish farming industry
Uni Research develops biotechnological mechanisms aiming at supporting the production of sustainable feeds for the aquaculture industry. We screen and identify Omega-3 rich microalgae strains, and optimize production. In collaboration with the company CO2Bio and the University of Bergen, Uni Research has established the National Algae-Pilot Mongstad facility. Here CO2 from the Technology Centre Mongstad capture plant is used to grow omega-3 rich algae for the fish farming industry.
Value creation from byproducts from the food
industry: Discovery of new industrial enzymes Biotechnologists at Uni Research explore the industrial potential of marine organisms from extreme environments. DNA sequence information is used to identify and produce novel enzymes for the bioprocessing of industrial waste, such as lignocellulosics and marine by-products from fisheries and aquaculture. This is a major contribution to the development of a circular bio-economy in Norway.
