The full delivery of equipment is scheduled to take place during the first half of 2027.
Norwegian Electric Systems AS (NES) will supply its Raven INS (integrated navigation system) and Raven JPOS (dynamic positioning system) to a live fish carrier owned by Fitjar Mekaniske Verksted (FMV).
Fitjar Mekaniske Verksted (FMV) is a Norwegian shipyard specializing in the construction of advanced vessels, particularly for the aquaculture industry, with its headquarters located in Fitjar, on the west coast of Norway.
This live fish carrier will be operated by the Norwegian wellboat operator North Salmon Service, with full equipment delivery scheduled for the first half of 2027. As early as 2025, NES confirmed the delivery of power and automation systems for this same Norwegian aquaculture logistics operator.
NES technology integrates radar, an electronic chart display and information system (ECDIS), autopilot/trackpilot, alarms, and relevant sensor data into a single common user interface on the bridge.
"This contract highlights the competitiveness and advanced capabilities of Raven INS, a fully integrated navigation system delivered as part of a complete turnkey bridge solution," said Siv Remøy-Vangen, Managing Director of NES.
Additionally, Andreas Rønning Stein, Sales Manager at NES, expressed: "We are proud to be selected for another delivery to this innovative live fish carrier. Raven INS, our proprietary fully integrated navigation system, is quickly gaining a reputation among shipowners for its flexibility and user-friendly design."
