About Ava Ocean

We aim to lead the way as the fishing industry heads in a new and more sustainable direction.

Our revolutionary technology for non-invasive, precision seabed harvesting not only preserves, but can also help to restore fragile and often overlooked ecosystems at the bottom of the sea.

Everything we do, we do using the best available knowledge, combining vast experience from fishing, offshore and marine science with a determination to make a positive difference.

The company’s first fishing vessel, the Arctic Pearl, is the world’s first with Ava's technology onboard. Thanks to the harvesters’ documented low impact, in December 2022 the Arctic Pearl was able to reopen the fishery of Arctic scallops in the Barents Sea after 30 years of closure.

Our board of directors has extensive experience in offshore, fisheries, and marine industries and are passionate about the health of our oceans and their vital role in a more sustainable future.
