In the media: Building an offshore aquaculture pen in China
Designed by offshore oil and gas services firm De Maas, the pen will enable aquaculture companies to farm fish away from the shore, in large volumes, says the firm. A local Chinese firm will stock yellow croaker fish in the pen -- which is near completion – when it is installed off the coast of Fujian. Future pens, however, could farm Atlantic Salmon off the Scottish Hebrides, or seabass and seabream in the Mediterranean, says De Maas.
