130 metres long and built at a cost of NoK1.10 billion (€113 million), Aker BioMarine’s new krill catcher is the first purpose-built vessel of its kind in the world, and its construction has been a venture on an ambitious scale.
Aker BioMarine and Cognite have entered into an agreement to digitise Aker BioMarine's harvest and production systems to improve the company's efforts towards sustainability. In addition, Amesto Solutions-owned data analysis company, NextBridge Analytics, also recently entered into a strategic alliance with the two partners.
