Andfjord signs deals for water treatment and ROVs

Christian Halmøy Torgersen, Chief Operating Officer (COO)  of Andfjord Salmon said: “Both Meox and Sterner have a good track record of delivering on goals, while at the same time working in a focused manner to improve results.”

Meox has previously delivered ROVs (remotely operated underwater vehicles) to Andfjord Salmon’s first pool

The new delivery includes ROVs for cleaning the floors and walls of the new pools that are under construction. The ROVs will be self-propelled and are a newer version of the units that were used at the first pool. Andfjord Salmon is building four new pools in its current construction phase.

Kristian Hjertvik, CEO of Meox, said: “We are proud to once again be chosen as a supplier by Andfjord Salmon.

“Our work with the company is characterised by a good and close collaboration where we work together towards common goals that require the development of innovative technology solutions.”

Sterner is one of the country’s leading suppliers of water treatment systems for the aquaculture industry and will be delivering a solution for dewatering sludge at Kvalnes.

Robert Eliassen, Head of Sludge Treatment and Biogas at Sterner, said: “We see Andfjord Salmon’s production system as an exciting and innovative technology that harmonizes well with our own solutions for sludge treatment. We share Andfjord’s strong focus on ensuring sustainability in the aquaculture industry.”
