SINTEF Ocean projects

Marine rest raw materials represent an important value-creating resource for the Norwegian fisheries and aquaculture industry. Mapping has shown that the vast majority is utilised today.

AQUALICIOUS is a Horizon Europe Innovation Action designed to demonstrate the potential of low-trophic aquaculture (LTA) and integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) solutions across Europe.

The project will make aquatic litter monitoring across Europe more comparable and reliable, providing better evidence for environmental assessment, management and policy.

Open, transparent modelling for the transition to natural refrigerants.

The project will develop, test, and document an even lower impact shrimp trawl than the trawls presently used in outer Oslo Fjord.

FIT-HORIZONS aims to develop a holistic, intelligent and flexible design tool environment that will accelerate the adoption of multiple decarbonising retrofit technologies for various vessel types.

The BlueNature Centre will develop concrete, research-based solutions for the sustainable use of marine and coastal spaces and natural resources.

Increased use of large floating closed cages by increasing understanding of interactions between fish density, behaviour and hydrodynamics, and assessing failure mechanisms to ensure structural integrity.

We develop systems for the collection of hydroacoustic data in commercial fishery, with processing and analysis methods enabling use in stock assessment and precision fishery.
