Norway’s largest site fallowing provider

Site fallowing begins when the pens are emptied after a production cycle. It gives the environment and water quality a necessary break and reduces the risk of infection spreading.

Combining biosecurity with technical maintenance

Abyss uses the fallowing period to carry out between-cycle inspections and repairs on floating collars. This addresses both infection prevention and farm integrity in a single operation.

Record capacity

Abyss has 32 vessels in its aquaculture services fleet and five ring cleaning units. During the first half of 2025, six vessels were continuously engaged in site fallowing.

Close to customers

Bases and employees along the coast enable short response times and close follow-up. Work is carried out by specialist crews supported by training, procedures, risk assessments and documentation.

An important role for the whole industry

Site fallowing helps prevent disease, improve fish health and extend the service life of customers’ farms. Good planning delivers efficient, cost-effective solutions.
