Reported scope and milestone
Aibel: Aibel and Utror presented an offshore salmon-farming concept at an industry event in January 2026.
Engineering interpretation
Aibel and Utror are developing an offshore salmon-farming concept, presented in January 2026 while a suitable regulatory framework is still needed. This is partner concept development, not a paid consultancy award, permit, final investment decision or construction contract.
Delivery responsibilities
A design study converts an owner’s objectives into an engineering basis that can be priced, reviewed and taken into subsequent execution. Process balances, utilities, constructability and tender packages must be consistent before contracts advance. The design team should identify unresolved interfaces and decisions that remain with the owner. Selecting a study provider is evidence of technical development, not confirmation of a final investment decision, a construction start or operating capacity. Dates quoted as future plans retain that status until a separate milestone is reported.
