Marport Congratulates Hvalnes P/F on arrival of Nordborg
Marport Deep Sea Technologies extends congratulations and best wishes to Hvalnes P/F upon the arrival of their newest vessel, the F/V Nordborg to the Faroe Islands.
The 83.5m long purse seiner/pelagic trawler is one of the most advanced fishing vessels in the world. The vessel is arranged with RSW hold capacity of 1.230m3 and two freezing holds optimised for pallets with a capacity of 2,500m3. The design is optimised for onboard production with a freezing capacity of more than 200 tonnes of herring fillet per day. All of the waste is utilized in a separate fishmeal factory. The hull is designed to achieve good sea characteristics, and limiting the noise onboard the vessel has been an important factor, giving a better working environment and comfort for the crew.
Accommodation is arranged for 30 people, and the vessel has been fitted with the most modern electronics, communication and fish-finding equipment – including Marport sensors.
The vessel is arranged to fish for herring, mackerel, capelin and blue whiting and is equipped with separate deck equipment for trawling and for purse seining. It will operate mainly on the fishing grounds around the Faroe Islands, the North Sea, the Atlantic Ocean as well as the maritime zones around Iceland and the Barents Sea.
