OceanFront was hired to remove fenders (old truck tires) from Kristiansund’s inner harbor. This was a good opportunity to engage them to clean the seabed since their goal was to test their new technology.

During this successful pilot project, a significant number of fenders were retrieved from the seabed, where the majority of them will be reused.

This kind of clean-up operation must be repeated regularly, and OceanFront is ready to conduct another mission in the future. All aspects of planning, implementing, evaluating, and reporting went smoothly, as well as health and safety.

On behalf of the Norwegian Coastal Administration, OceanFront cleared abandoned aquaculture facilities in Western Norway in the autumn of 2021. We are happy with both the planning, implementation, and results of the assignment.

Handelens Miljøfond is pleased to support the vital work of developing methods for clearing the seabed of rubbish. We follow OceanFront closely in their work to develop dedicated systems for gentle cleaning of the seabed.

We at OKEA hire CAD and Control System engineers, and OceanFront was the only ones in the region that could deliver this specialist expertise. We are happy to have access to such resources in our offices in Kristiansund.

Nivero works with software development and modern technology. One of our projects deals with waste in Norwegian fjords and how to use technology to map and recognize different types of waste underwater. OceanFront has complementary expertise that will be of great help in our further work. We look forward to a good collaboration in the future!

Having OceanFront and their knowledge and experience as a part of NOSCA is very valuable. As we are always aiming to address marine pollution challenges holistically – detection, classification, clean-up and disposal/recycling – OceanFront contribute both through their eagerness to share and cooperate with others, and by broadening the cluster’s competence base”, says Eirik Langeland, Managing Director NOSCA Clean Ocean.

In 2021, Norsk Gjenvinning AS and OceanFront entered into a national collaboration on solutions for marine waste. We have since worked closely with projects where OceanFront offers its services to find the best environmental solutions for waste.
