Abstract

When people hear “aquaculture” many do not immediately think “offshore technology.” However there is a robust global industry of sustainable offshore aquaculture that tackles design challenges in some of the most potentially unhospitable environments offshore. This presentation will provide a background on the different disciplines within the offshore aquaculture field and dive into the design process for offshore net pens and mooring systems.
