Aquaculture tech company Innovasea has renewed the global framework agreement that it has in place with Mowi, making it the preferred vendor for environmental monitoring equipment and software for all of the salmon producer’s sites.
Mowi has already implemented Innovasea’s environmental monitoring systems at multiple locations and will continue to add new sites as part of its ongoing Mowi 4.0 Smart Farming initiative.
“In today’s landscape, you must constantly innovate to counter environmental and operational challenges,” said Arnt Mjøen, Mowi’s Group IT Manager of Feed and Farming. “Innovasea has made it effortless to receive, analyse, and act on our data, whether on the Realfish Pro Platform or contextualised within our MowInsight analytical platform for improved daily operations and fish growth.”
As new environmental sensors and systems are added, Mowi will gain greater insights into its farm environments, giving it an opportunity to make more targeted decisions for each pen.
“Since working with Innovasea, we’ve learned a great deal about our site and pen conditions. Continuous information about the living environment for our fish is important to ensure we maintain good control of fish welfare. It also enables us to make swift and informed actions while giving us valuable information to improve our sites and operation over time,” said Henrik Trengereid, Mowi Group Manager for Seawater Production Technology.
Innovasea’s technology delivers real-time information on environmental factors, such as dissolved oxygen levels, salinity, and temperature, to a central cloud-based platform: Innovasea’s Realfish Pro.
Within Realfish Pro’s Environmental Monitoring Dashboard, operators can track water quality across multiple sites and receive instant alerts if conditions degrade. Managers can use this data to optimise feeding and protect their fish even when they are not on site.
“We are thrilled to build upon our successful partnership with Mowi as they continue to lead the industry in effective, data-driven techniques,” Innovasea VP Tim Stone said. “As leaders in precision aquaculture, we are excited to help them leverage the information they’re collecting to deliver more efficient, sustainable practices.”
