CT international has recently developed the first on board steam cooker for snow crab and other shellfish. The steam cooker allows a more gentle processing of the crab, leaving more taste and texture in the meat. This ensures a higher quality product for end-users.
Aalborg company Carsoe has been selected by Royal Greenland to supply a complete processing line for the company’s new factory fillet trawler, one of two new Skipsteknisk-designed vessels being built for the company at the Astilleros de Murueta yard in Spain.
The EU has just set out this year’s sandeel quotas and there is good news in store for Danish fishing, which looks to be getting the best quotas the fleet has seen for more than ten years. In February ICES announced its advice on sandeel fisheries, with the expectation that there would be a healthy 2017 quota.
The Danish Fishermen’s Producers Organisation (DFPO) and The Danish Pelagic Producers Organisations (DPPO) have been awarded MSC certification for the sandeel, Norway pout and sprat fisheries.
Thyborøn Skibssmedie this week celebrates its fiftieth anniversary, established back in 1967 by blacksmith Børge Stausholm Andreasen in the Danish port of Thyborøn, and since then the company has specialised in producing the distinctive blue trawl doors that are to be seen around the world.
‘In the eighties there were some new boats here, and then that all stopped,’ said Jan Woller of the Hirtshals Fishermen’s Association who is bringing the first newbuild for years to the port.
Niisa Trawl’s new trawler, under construction at the Metalships & Docks yard at Vigo in Spain is due to start fishing by the end of 2018 and will be sailing with a Carsoe factory deck.
Hirtshals company Marine Shaft’s name tells you a lot of what the company does as its core business, but there’s much more going on there than the name indicates.
The Langer family in Thyborøn has sold its industrial trawler to a Swedish/German company, and is replacing it with an Irish pelagic vessel built in Denmark.
After 25 years running his own net loft in Hirtshals, Ray Godtliebsen has sold the business to Cosmos Trawl, who were keen to acquire the smaller net loft’s expertise with seine nets.
