TAU Tech rebrands as Ava Ocean before scallop fishery reopening

Sep 1, 2022 · Org Change · Ava Ocean · Maritime

TAU Tech changed its name to Ava Ocean as it prepared to begin precision harvesting under Norway's first Arctic scallop quota in more than 30 years.

  • The Ålesund company adopted the Ava Ocean name ahead of commercial operations.
  • Norwegian regulators granted a five-year research quota of up to 15,000 tonnes of Arctic scallops per year.
  • The Arctic Pearl was being refitted to carry the company's low-impact precision harvesting system.

Ava Ocean develops seabed harvesting technology designed to collect seafood resources while monitoring and protecting marine ecosystems. Founded in Ålesund, the company combines specialised vessels, sensors and precision subsea equipment for selective ocean operations.
