Moss Maritime is capitalizing on the extensive experience in floating offshore installations and semi-submersible technologies to provide our expertise within design and engineering of floating offshore structures:  We are thrilled to have led the development of the Aqualoop Big Dipper concept for open ocean fish farming. After two years of pre-feed study, we completed a successful design validation and model test campaign in the SINTEF Ocean model basin last week. The design evolution of subsea fish farming is primarily focused on enhancing biosecurity, fish welfare and optimizing barrier structures. Submerging the fish cages reduces environmental impact on the units and minimizes the risk of lice infestations. Additionally, subsea farming enables better regulation of temperature and sea conditions within the cages. Sustainable design principles are essential, requiring robust barriers to prevent fish escapes and reduce emissions. The model test campaign confirmed the hydrodynamic performance of the design without any unexpected results compared to our numerical analysis. Demonstrating that fully offshore sea farming is feasible and that the Big Dipper concept provides a solution for harsh environments with multiple challenges. #offshoreseafarming #modeltesting #hydrodynamics
