We conduct research promoting responsible and value-creating use of ocean resources.

We focus on fisheries, aquaculture, emerging marine species and coastal ecosystems for developing knowledge that drives sustainable value creation.

Our research supports both regional needs and global strategies, from marine resources to commercial products. We have extensive experience and broad expertise across several disciplines within marine research.

Knowledge of the ocean and coast, delivered through independent, high‑quality research for business and society.

Møreforsking is a leading research institute within marine research, aquaculture and seafood processing. With over 40 years of experience, we work for the sustainable utilisation of marine resources and the creation of value for business and society.
