Norway's Akva Group has been contracted to deliver a new feed barge to local fish farm company Arctic Offshore Farming.
The barge will have a length of 64 metres, a width of 13 metres, a storage capacity of 800 tonnes, and certification for wave heights of up to 7.5 metres. It will also have space for a small work boat in the stern.
Arctic Offshore Farming will use the barge in exposed locations and rough conditions north of the Polar Circle.
