Technology for a better society
• Aquaculture has changed a lot since the beginning in the 1970-ies
• High capacity sites: Harvest 10 000 – 12 000 t/year
• Large farming units – 6 000 m3 - 30 000 m3 per unit
• Automatic feeding
• Efficient logistics: Well boats – feed – packed salmon in boxes
• Large – medium sized and small companies
Norwegian aquaculture
Technology for a better society
A true sustainable solution respects the environment, create jobs and is economically
viable
Sustainability has three dimensions

Technology for a better society
Norway can offer a diverse number of solutions and areas for cooperation
Research and development (R&D)
Fisheries and aquaculture management
Solutions and hardware for the fisheries
Solutions and hardware for aquaculture
Set-up of solutions for fisheries, aquaculture and processing
Sustainable solutions for fisheries and aquaculture
Technology for a better society
• Like the fisheries and industries – the supplier industry is very diverse
• Big companies which are on the international arena
• Medium sized and small companies – on the Norwegian arena and the international arena
• The international focus increases

Industry
Research and development
Supplier industry
is the basis for innovation and high scientific quality
The Norwegian model - close collaboration
Innovation Norway and the Norwegian Research Council play an important role
Technology for a better society
• The suppliers, companies from the industry and R&D institutions cooperate in clusters to develop solutions and develop the supplier industry
• Teknologi akvARENA is a cluster for developing the supplier industry in aquaculture 50 members from suppliers, industry and R&D institutions
• Cooperate on specific issues – like internationalization – but still compete in the market
Clusters – an important arena

Technology for a better society
• Efficient fisheries and aquaculture management is a success factor
• Efficient law enforcement - power to implement regulations
• Long tradition of utilizing marine resources
• Based on advice from strong scientific institutions
• Norway is rated No. 1 in management of its commercial fish stocks

Technology for a better society
• Important to find a balance between different users of the coastal zone Aquaculture – fisheries – tourism –nature conservation (National Parks, wildlife reserves)
• Aquaculture:
• Find sites with best production capacity Norwegian standard NS 9410 developed
• Find sites with minimum impact from and on other sites - diseases
• Distance between sites to reduce impact
• Use mathematical modelling to establish optimal site distribution
Coastal Zone Management
Technology for a better society
• The Norwegian fishing fleet is diverse!
• Large trawlers and purse seiners Medium sized coastal vessels Small coastal vessels – the "sjark"
• Develop new concepts
• Multi-fishing gear boats
• More efficient energy use
• Better health and safety for the fishermen
• Keep fish quality

Technology for a better society
• A multitude of fishing gear are in use in Norway and are improved: Trawl – purse seine – long line – gill nets – fish traps
• Selection of wanted – not-wanted fish species and sizes are important – continuous development
• More environmentally friendly fishing gear Trawl that reduces impact on bottom
• Fish finding equipment – steering of fishing gear
• Synergies oil/gas/maritime

Technology for a better society
• Challenge: Keep the quality of the fish until unloading in harbour
• Increase quality for human food – and increase price of product
• Bleed and gut on board - freeze on board
• Development of technology in collaboration between ship-owner – equipment supplier and R&D institution
Catch handling

Technology for a better society
• Breeding is an important success factor for salmon farming Fast growth – disease resistance - robust
• Advanced breeding methods – research based
• Norwegian experience with salmon and trout – marine fish and tilapia
• Norwegian companies strong in international markets

Technology for a better society
• Large losses due to diseases in salmon farming in the 1980-ies and 1990-ies
• Vaccines against bacterial diseases and viral diseases has considerably reduced losses due to diseases
• And have reduced the use of antibiotics to a minimum
• Improve vaccines and develop vaccines against new diseases - use biotechnological methods
• Offer products in the international market
Fish health - vaccines

Technology for a better society
• Research based development of feed for a number of fish species
• Salmon / trout / cod in Norway
• Pangasius and tilapia - turbot and yellowtail And many more
• Search for new raw materials From agriculture Crustaceans and pelagic fish species Micro and macro algae
Fish feed – new raw materials

Technology for a better society
• Norway has a well developed supplier industry for aquaculture technology
• Development in close cooperation with R&D institutions
• Cages / moorings – barges - service vessels / boats
• Land based hatcheries

Technology for a better society
• In addition to salmon, Norwegian researchers and industry have domesticated halibut – cod – cleaner fish and more
• Large sums invested – first feeding and production technology developed
• Traditional live feed like Artemia and rotifers
• Now copepods as first feed give very good results
• Cleaner fish alternative to chemical treatment of parasites

Technology for a better society
• Norway has several suppliers of equipment for fish processing – on board and on land
• Key competence to put together equipment that fits customer's specific needs
• Hardware and software from different suppliers
• Need for tracing – traceability result in extra challenge regarding software interaction

Technology for a better society
• The Norwegian supplier industry is diverse
• All sizes of companies and a diverse range of services and products
• Some suppliers are well established in the international market – others are having internationalization as a part of future strategy
• Education and training – in collaboration with R&D institutions and suppliers
• Innovation Norway will be an important link to the Norwegian R&D institutions and suppliers
A few concluding remarks
