‘Bubbles’ – taste that word – and think soda, soap, play and well-being. But did you know that air bubbles can also reduce fuel consumption and emissions from oceangoing vessels?

Here you will find publications and presentations from the RightFish project.

Copepods are the perfect food package for marine fish larvae, such as cod, tuna and halibut. Now research shows that it is possible to drastically increase the production of the fish fry’s superfood.

NTNU and SINTEF launched a new Gemini Centre dedicated to offshore wind yesterday, in Trondheim.

ZeroKyst’s final joint gathering at AquaNor 2025 sent a clear message: emission cuts in fisheries and aquaculture are no longer just visions – but solutions making their way into practice.

The ship may need over five kilometers to stop. Perhaps not so surprising. The ship measures 62 meters in width and extends 21 meters below the water’s surface. Four models needed to test if the ship withstands launch.

When the goal is that Norwegian fish farming should increase fivefold by 2050 and use at least 25% Norwegian-produced feed ingredients by 2034, we must look at new ingredient sources.

It can take up to 200 years for damaged marine environments to fully recover by just stopping the destruction and leaving the ecosystems to themselves. That is why we must implement active restoration interventions.

How do you find and catch something that lives in open water and is so small, at 2-3 mm, that it almost goes "under the radar"? These are some of the challenges fishermen face, when catching the copepod Calanus finmarchicus.
