The PG Flow Solutions group has been tasked with supplying a complete fish handling system, including delousing system and fish transfer pumps, to a delousing vessel.

The contract will be executed as subcontractor to the Norwegian company Hydrolicer Production, which owns new shipowning company Hydro Shipping and will equip the Hydro Pioneer vessel with four complete Hydrolicer delousing systems. Hydro Pioneer is a 52m platform supply vessel which is being converted to a delousing vessel.

PG group companies Cflow Fish Handling and PG Flow Solution will manufacture and deliver a complete delousing system, including a four-line PG HydroFlow fish pumping solution.

“We are proud to be Hydrolicer Production’s production partner on this and other projects,” said Gunnar Hoff, co-founder and head of the fishery and aquaculture business at Cflow Fish Handling. “We have together built up a reputation for developing innovative products that ensure greatly improved fish welfare,” he added.

PG-HydroFlow is a pump system specially designed for transport of live fish. The pump system can be adapted to the capacity and length and height displacement the customer requires, without harm to the fish.

PG Flow Solutions will assemble the four PG-HydroFlow pumps at the company’s facility in Sande, Vestfold, Norway whilst Cflow Fish Handling will build the actual delousing and control system together with assembly and installation.
