Salmon Evolution is the largest land based aquaculture operator in the world. Clarify and Salmon Evolution have collaborated since 2022 to make OT and sensor data available to optimise conditions for both the fish and the technical operation of the facility at Indre Harøy.
Salmon Evolution is a pioneer in land based fish farming and an innovator in utilising their hybrid flow-through system to farm salmon on land, at commercial scale, globally. Their technology minimises the operational and biological risk as well as ensuring control and optimal growth conditions for the fish, every time.
Our collaboration started out early 2022, when Salmon Evolution decided to run a pilot with Clarify on a small subset of their data and facility. Gaining confidence in the product and the Clarify team by testing it in practice with real world data was the key to ultimately scale to the whole production.
Clarify is an ideal partner for us, with their strong focus on aquaculture and technology, combined with their unique experience in the industry. Jon Åge - Automation Engineer - Salmon Evolution
Nothing great is built alone. We're very proud to have been working with the team at Salmon Evolution over several years. For us as a team and for the continuous evolution of Clarify, it's inspiring and crucial to work with innovators like Salmon Evolution. Tore, CEO Clarify
Every 4 hours fresh new seawater is introduced into the facility, while 65% is reused to optimise for water quality and energy usage while balancing costs and operational risk. All intake water is filtered and treated in order to minimise the risk of parasites, sea lice, viruses, and particles.
Our goal is to recreate optimal conditions for the fish, every time. Jon Åge - Automation Engineer - Salmon Evolution
Water quality and operational systems are continuously monitored and controlled to ensure optimal performance at all times. In addition, every tank is a single biosecure space to increase the biological security and reduce the complexity of operating the facility as a whole.
The facility deploys state of the art industrial control systems to ensure optimal production. But with more control and hardware, the need for maintenance, improving control loops, avoiding down time, controlling energy usage, and so on, are new challenges that come on top of ensuring the best conditions for fish growth and welfare.
Utilising data and collaborating efficiently across functional teams is a key focus for Salmon Evolution. Live, high quality data is the common thread that brings teams together to find problems to solve, areas to improve, and innovating to find new and better ways of operating.
Clarify helps Salmon Evolution take control and gain complete ownership of their OT data across underlying systems, to increase the speed and quality of decision making and action taking.
In addition, Clarify has interfaces for visualising, exploring, and building data products that combine raw data with domain expertise. In this way, raw data is given context, meaning, and value by the people who know the fish, the facility, and the process the best. This gives Salmon Evolution a data advantage for human decision making, automating workflows, and for training AI.
Ultimately, Clarify offers infrastructure, API's, and SDK's that make data flow to wherever Salmon Evolution wants to use their data, both internally and externally. With Clarify as a hosted and managed solution, the team at Salmon Evolution can focus on their core business, producing high quality food with minimal footprint to nature, without the hassle, costs, and complexity of managing mission critical data infrastructure.
A core philosophy for Salmon Evolution and a central success for winning with data is including and engaging people throughout the organization with easy access to the data they need in their role.
For pioneers such as Salmon Evolution, the work to innovate and improve never stops. Enabling continuous improvement, new use cases, and practical problem solving with data is the cornerstone of the Clarify platform. With a culture for improvement and tools that support, there's no cap on the value to be gained and use cases to be solved with better data.
Salmon Evolution is at the forefront also when it comes to use of what has previously been seen as a waste product in aquaculture, namely sludge. Take a look at this video to learn more about Salmon Evolution's work with sustainability and circular economy, and how operational data contributes.
Together we want to contribute to increase the knowledge and technical level of the whole aquaculture industry. We're very proud that the Norwegian Seafood Research Fund have supported our joint work through the project, Salmosense. We'll share lessons learned throughout 2025, when our project is finalised. Tore - CEO - Clarify
