The next phase of growth in land‑based salmon farming may not come from building new facilities—but from getting more out of those already in place. In SMJ work, SMJ increasingly see a gap between what facilities are designed to deliver and what they achieve in daily operation. Closing that gap creates biological, technical, and financial value.

Í síðstu viku fekk MEST vitjan av M4‑flokkinum á Vinnuháskúlanum, sum vóru komin at fáa eina nærri fatan av arbeiðinum umborð á einum veruligum skipi. Í hesum sambandi varð farið umborð á Dunga Jákup , har næmingarnir fingu greitt og fakligt innlit í bæði høvðustalvuna og neyðtalvuna. Á túrinum greiddu starvsfólk frá, hvussu talvurnar verða brúktar í dagliga arbeiðnum, og hvussu tær eru ein týðandi partur av trygdar‑ og samskiftisskipanini umborð. Hetta gav næmingunum eina gó

Articon is the constructor of the project. The cofferdam, built from sheet piles, has been filled with 20,000 tons of sand, delivered to the site by Sandship. This structure will keep seawater out of the construction zone, allowing crews to solidify the dock’s foundation and conti

The pelagic vessel Norðborg will be docked in Tórshavn for the next 6 months while the factory is replaced.

Norðborg is 16 years old, and nothing has been replaced in the factory during these years. The original plan at Christiani í Grótinum was

The Faroe Islands Commercial Diving School has expanded its training program with the ability to certify divers in commercial diving using NITROX . Gas‑mix diving, such as diving with NITROX, provides divers with opportunities to plan and carry out their dives in a completely different — and often significantly safer — way compared to diving with regular air. One of the primary challenges associated with standard air as a breathing gas is its high content of nitrogen . Nitrog
