    Norway-based Aker BioMarine has awarded a contract to VARD to build a state-of-the-art vessel that will fish for krill in the Antarctic.

    “This is the largest single contract VARD has ever received for a fishing vessel, and we are very happy to have entered a shipbuilding contract with them. This will also contribute to securing Norwegian jobs in the future,” said Webjørn Eikrem, EVP production and supply shain at Aker BioMarine.

    “Aker has, since Aker BioMarine was established in 2006, focused on sustainable krill fishing. From day one, we have worked with WWF Norway. The krill fishery in the Antarctica is one of the most sustainable fisheries in the world, and Aker BioMarine hopes to yet again set a new bar for sustainable harvesting with this new vessel. Norwegian skills and new technology will help us reduce our carbon footprint even further with this vessel,” said Matts Johansen, CEO at Aker BioMarine.

    The new 130-meter-long krill vessel will be equipped with the latest and most advanced eco-friendly technology. All plans and specifications are developed in cooperation with fishermen from Aker BioMarine and engineers from VARD. The vessel’s operations will be energy efficient, with a production and processing facility capable of processing raw krill material in the Antarctic.

    The contract has a financing clause, with Aker BioMarine seeking finance through the Norwegian Export Credit Guarantee Agency (GIEK). “We have a good financing plan and look forward to beginning the application process with GIEK immediately,” said Mr. Johansen.

    Construction is planned to begin in May this year, and the vessel is expected to complete at the end of 2018. The total value of the contract is 1 billion NOK, including buyer’s supplies.

    According to the plan, the new vessel will be in operation in the Antarctic from the beginning of the 2019 season.

    Roy Reite, CEO and executive director at VARD commented, “This is a very exciting fishery project that we are really looking forward to work with. We have developed a range of innovative vessels together with our good relations in Aker since the 1980s, and also this project is built on good cooperation and complementary expertise within fisheries, ship design and technology.”
