The Norwegian company seals a 55 million kroner agreement with First Water to equip its terrestrial recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) plant in Þorlákshöfn.

The company Overhalla Betongbygg AS has signed a major contract worth 55 million Norwegian kroner (NOK) —equivalent to approximately 5.68 million US dollars (US$)— with the Icelandic land-based fish farmer First Water. The agreement includes the delivery of prefabricated concrete elements destined for the final part of phase 1 of the new land-based salmon farming facility (RAS) that the Icelandic firm operates in Þorlákshöfn, Iceland.

The delivery will have a total weight of approximately 4,300 tonnes and will consist of eight large fish tanks, each with a diameter of 28 meters and a height of 9.5 meters. These structures will each hold around 5,600 cubic meters (m³) of water. The elements will be manufactured in Overhalla, with delivery scheduled for early 2027.

For Overhalla Betongbygg, this contract represents more than a large single delivery. It is a clear example of how technical expertise, industrial workplaces, and production capacity from Namdalen and Trøndelag can stand out in demanding international projects.

"This is a contract we are proud of. It shows that Norwegian industrial expertise and prefabricated concrete solutions from Overhalla are competitive also outside the country's borders. Such projects mean a lot for the further development of the company, for our workplaces and for the expertise we build up every single day," says Arnt Ove Amdal, CEO of Overhalla Betongbygg AS.

For its part, First Water is a groundbreaking land-based aquaculture project (RAS) in Iceland, designed to set a new standard for sustainable seafood production.

"First Water is a groundbreaking land-based aquaculture project in Iceland, designed to set a new standard for sustainable aquaculture. When the first phase is completed, our current production capacity will double from 5,000 to 10,000 tonnes of gutted salmon. The facility will eventually be expanded in six phases, with a target annual production capacity of 60,000 tonnes," says Eggert Þór Kristófersson, CEO of First Water.

Both companies have worked closely together for a long time to ensure good technical solutions and safe implementation.

"This has been crucial for us to succeed together on such a project," says Rasmus Bolkan, Sales Manager at Aqua in Overhalla Betongbygg AS.

The project places high demands on planning, quality, production, transport, and interaction between the parties. Logistics and precision become an essential part of the delivery when 4,300 tonnes of concrete elements are to be transported by sea from Norway to Iceland.

The contract also underlines the role Overhalla Betongbygg wants to maintain in the development of future land-based facilities (RAS). Land-based farming requires robust, durable, and efficient building solutions, and precast concrete makes it possible to combine high quality with fast and controlled implementation on site.

"We see this as the start of a new and exciting chapter. For us, this is about exports, jobs and taking the experience from the Norwegian aquaculture and concrete industries into new markets. We look forward to a good collaboration with First Water for a long time to come," concludes Amdal.

Over the years, Overhalla Betongbygg has developed as a supplier to large and demanding projects within Aqua, Agriculture, Transport, and the Professional Market. This new contract in Iceland shows that an industrial adventure with roots in Overhalla can also grow far beyond national borders.

Overhalla Betongbygg、アイスランドの陸上サーモン循環ろ過養殖(RAS)向けにコンクリート部材を供給へ ノルウェー企業がFirst Water社と5,500万クローネの契約を締結、ソルラクスホプンの陸上循環ろ過養殖(RAS)場に設備を導入。

ノルウェーのOverhalla Betongbygg AS社は、アイスランドの陸上養殖事業者であるFirst Water社と、5,500万ノルウェークローネ(NOK) —米ドル換算で約568万米ドル(US$)— にのぼる大型契約を締結しました。この契約には、同社がアイスランドのソルラクスホプン(Þorlákshöfn)で運営する新しい陸上サーモン循環ろ過養殖(RAS)施設のフェーズ1の最終区画に向けた、プレハブコンクリート部材の供給が含まれています。

出荷される資材の総重量は約4,300トンに達し、内訳は直径28メートル、高さ9.5メートル大型飼育タンク8基となります。各タンクは約5,600立方メートル(m³)の飼育水を貯留できます。これらの部材はオーバハラ(Overhalla)の自社工場で製造され、2027年初頭にアイスランドへ配送される予定です。

Overhalla Betongbyggにとって、この契約は単なる一回限りの大型受注にとどまりません。ナムダーレン(Namdalen)およびトレンデラーグ(Trøndelag)地域の専門技術、産業雇用、および生産能力が、高い要求レベルが求められる国際的なプロジェクトにおいていかに優位性を発揮できるかを示す好例となっています。

「これは私たちが誇りに思う契約です。オーバハラのコンクリートプレハブ技術とノルウェーの産業専門知識が、国境を越えても十分に競争力を持っていることを証明しています。このようなプロジェクトは、会社のさらなる発展、日々の雇用の維持、そして私たちが日々積み重ねている技術力の向上に大きな意味を持ちます」と、Overhalla Betongbygg AS社のCEOであるArnt Ove Amdal氏は述べています。

一方、First Water社はアイスランドにおける先駆的な陸上循環ろ過養殖(RAS)プロジェクトであり、持続可能な水産物(魚介類)生産の新たなスタンダードを確立することを目指しています。

First Waterはアイスランドにおける先駆的な陸上養殖プロジェクトであり、持続可能な養殖業の新たな基準を提示するために設計されました。第1フェーズが完了すると、現在の当社の生産能力はセミドレス(内臓除去)サーモン換算で5,000トンから10,000トンへと倍増します。この施設は最終的に6つのフェーズに分けて拡張され、年間生産能力60,000トンの達成を目標としています」と、First Water社のCEOであるEggert Þór Kristófersson氏は語ります。

両社は、最適な技術的ソリューションと安全な施工管理を保証するため、長期にわたり緊密な連携を重ねてきました。

「このような規模のプロジェクトにおいて、双方が共に成功を収めるためには、この緊密な協力体制が不可欠でした」と、Overhalla Betongbygg AS社のアクア部門セールスマネージャーであるRasmus Bolkan氏は説明します。

当プロジェクトは、計画、品質、製造、輸送、および当事者間の相互連携において極めて高い水準を要求します。4,300トンものコンクリート部材をノルウェーからアイスランドまで海上輸送するにあたり、物流管理と精密な運行計画は、サプライチェーンにおいて最も重要な要素となります。

また、この契約は、将来の陸上循環ろ過養殖(RAS)施設の開発においてOverhalla Betongbyggが維持しようとしている役割を裏付けるものです。陸上養殖には頑健で耐久性があり、かつ効率的な建設ソリューションが不可欠であり、プレハブコンクリートの採用により、高品質の維持と現地での迅速かつ管理された施工の両立が可能となります。

「私たちはこれを、新しく刺激的な章の始まりと捉えています。当社にとってこれは、輸出、雇用の創出、そしてノルウェーの養殖業およびコンクリート産業で培った経験を新しい市場へと展開することを意味します。今後ともFirst Water社と長期にわたり良好な協力関係を築いていけることを楽しみにしています」と、Amdal氏は締めくくりました。

長年にわたり、Overhalla Betongbyggは養殖(アクア)、農業、運輸、およびプロフェッショナル市場における大規模かつ要求の厳しいプロジェクト向けのサプライヤーとして成長を遂げてきました。今回のアイスランドでの実績は、オーバハラに根ざした産業の挑戦が国境を大きく越えて成長できることを示しています。

Overhalla Betongbygg 将为冰兰陆基循环水(RAS)三文鱼养殖项目提供混凝土预制件 挪威公司与 First Water 签署价值 5,500 万克朗的合同,为其位于 Þorlákshöfn 的陆基循环水(RAS)养殖场提供设备。

挪威 Overhalla Betongbygg AS 公司已与冰兰陆基养殖商 First Water 签署了一份价值 5,500 万挪威克朗 (NOK) ——约合 568 万美元 (US$)—— 的重要合同。该合同内容包括为 First Water 公司在冰兰 Þorlákshöfn 建设的新型陆基循环水(RAS)三文鱼养殖场一期工程的最后部分提供混凝土预制件。

该批物资的总重量约为 4,300 吨,由 8 个大型鱼水箱组成,每个水箱的直径为 28 米,高度为 9.5 米。每个水箱的蓄水量约为 5,600 立方米 (m³)。这些预制件将在 Overhalla 制造,并计划于 2027 年初交付至冰兰。

对于 Overhalla Betongbygg 而言,这份合同不仅仅是一笔单一的大型交付业务。它也是一个生动 的范例,展示了来自 NamdalenTrøndelag 地区的专业技术、工业就业机会和生产能力如何在竞争激烈的国际项目中脱颖而出。

“这是一份令我们倍感自豪的合同。它表明来自 Overhalla 的挪威工业专业技术和混凝土预制解决方案在国界之外同样具有竞争力。此类项目对于公司的进一步发展、我们的工作岗位以及我们每天积累的专业知识都具有重要意义,” Overhalla Betongbygg AS 首席执行官 Arnt Ove Amdal 表示。

同时,First Water 是冰兰一个具有开创性的陆基循环水(RAS)养殖项目,旨在为可持续水产品(鱼介类)养殖树立新标准。

First Water 是冰兰一个开创性的陆基养殖项目,旨在为可持续养殖设立新标准。当第一阶段完成后,我们目前的年生产能力将从 5,000 吨翻倍至 10,000 吨去脏三文鱼。该设施最终将分 6 个阶段进行扩建,目标年产能将达到 60,000 吨,” First Water 首席执行官 Eggert Þór Kristófersson 介绍道。

两家公司长期以来一直保持紧密合作,以确保卓越的技术方案和安全的施工实施。

“这对于我们双方在如此规模的项目中共同取得成功至关重要,” Overhalla Betongbygg AS 水产部门销售经理 Rasmus Bolkan 解释道。

该项目对规划、质量、生产、运输以及各方协作提出了极高要求。在将 4,300 吨混凝土预制件通过海运从 挪威 运往 冰兰 时,物流与精准度成为了交付过程中极其关键的环节。

该合同也进一步确立了 Overhalla Betongbygg 在未来陆基循环水(RAS)养殖设施建设中所要保持的地位。陆基养殖需要强韧、耐用且高效的建筑解决方案,而预制混凝土能够将高品质与现场快速且可控的施工有机结合。

“我们将其视为全新且令人兴奋的篇章的起点。对我们而言,这关乎出口、就业,并将挪威养殖业和混凝土行业的丰富经验推向新市场。我们期待在未来很长一段时间内与 First Water 保持良好的合作,” Amdal 总结道。

多年来,Overhalla Betongbygg 已发展成为水产、农业、交通及专业市场领域中大型且高要求项目的关键供应商。此次在冰兰签订的合同表明,扎根于 Overhalla 的工业探索同样能够跨越国界、壮大发展。
