Nordlo to deliver IT infrastructure for Arctic Seafarm’s new land-based salmon farming facility in Norway
Nordlo has entered into an agreement with Arctic Seafarm to deliver IT infrastructure and operations for the company’s new land-based salmon farming facility in Nesna, Norway. The facility combines modern salmon farming technology with a data-driven approach.
“We have always prioritised quality. Nordlo is the best supplier we could have chosen,” says Carsten Rimer, Chief Administration Officer at Arctic Seafarm.

Land-based salmon farming is a key growth area in Norway, where Arctic Seafarm is building a production environment that promotes fish health and has a low carbon footprint. The aim is to produce up to 15,000 tonnes of salmon annually.
“Production at the facility is largely data driven. Arctic Seafarm will measure and analyse parameters such as oxygen saturation, water temperature and other production data to optimise fish health and maximise output over time. The data collected is also essential for meeting the requirements of the Norwegian Food Safety Authority,” says Marius Mønsted, CEO of Nordlo Vennesla.
Moving production from sea to land reduces challenges such as sea lice and emissions. The facility uses a so-called flow-through system. Water is sourced externally and wastewater is treated. The goal is to combine natural conditions for salmon with improved control and reduced environmental impact.
“For us, it is crucial to work with suppliers who understand our operations and the requirements placed on us. Nordlo has the experience and expertise we need to build a stable and future-proof IT environment,” says Carsten Rimer, Chief Administration Officer at Arctic Seafarm.
Nordlo will deliver network, wireless infrastructure and end-user equipment. The company is also responsible for monitoring and operating the entire IT environment at the facility. The installation is extensive, with final delivery planned for the second quarter of 2026.
“In modern, land-based facilities, IT forms part of the backbone of production. Nordlo’s role is to ensure stable operations, high security and access to the right data, enabling Arctic Seafarm to focus on its core business,” says Marius Mønsted, CEO of Nordlo Vennesla.
