PESQUERA AZUL

Throughout the world, long-liner vessels struggle with several issues that hamper efficient fishing in terms of optimal energy and resource use. To solve these challenges Pesquera Azul is undertaking a pilot project to implement new Norwegian longline technology in our new vessel MV Ocean Azul... In collaboration with the Uruguayan maritime authorities and through the deployment of cutting-edge, patented technology, we aim to significantly enhance working conditions and onboard safety of our crew, reduce fuel consumption, minimise whale depredation and eliminate bycatch... We believe our purpose-built vessel FV Ocean Azul will set a new standard of quality and innovation for the international long-liner fleet as part of our missions to help reduce the environmental footprint of fisheries in the Antarctic region.
