Aquacom

The offshore module (former MMCD) has been a valuable tool for many fish farmers since the launch in 2011. All technical components - both over and underwater can be placed in the offshore module and the users will get instant access to all certificates, expiration dates, technical specifications, checklists, user manuals etc. The technical components can easily be moved from one site to another without any loss of historical data. If you have access to several marine sites you can, on one single page, have an updated technical status of all marine sites in to your company. The company overview page will show all open deviations, expired certificates and other important matters. The system can also autogenerate a weekly report for all sites and send this by e-mail to responsible leaders.

More than 300 marine fish farm sites in Norway and Scotland are using the offshore module in their day to day maintenance and surveillance of technical components.

A number of hatcheries and processing plants are already using the Onshore module for technical maintenance and control of their machinery and technical equipment. All kinds of checkpoints and maintenances can be set up for equipment like generators, pumps, feeding systems etc. Together with the offshore module the company management will get a full overview of technical status of both sea and land facilities through the company overview page in Aquacom.

Large and smaller vessels involved in fish farm operations need to have a close technical follow up The Aquacom module “Vessels” is developed to ensure that all certification requirements are taken care of. Oil change, safety equipment, training program and certificates are some of the functions that is covered in this Aquacom module.

Aquacom Planner is the latest subsidiary in the Aquacom family. Planning of fish famring operations can be challenging – especially on exposed sites. The planner module are equipped with 7-10 days wave forecast that gives an opportunity to plan the operations based on preset wind and wave criteria for the specific operation. The user can then easily move the planned operation to a time with environmental conditions that is suitable for the operation. The wave calculations are accurate to 100x100m grid.

The planner module can also be set up with statistic wave data for an actual fish farm site. This gives an opportunity to plan a complete production cycle based on statistical wave data. This is also useful for evaluation of future potential new sites.

Basis for the planner module is a 2 year Norwegian research project that aims to solve various challenges regarding running of exposed fish farm locations.
