MAS: Frøy Havbruk has terminated the co-location agreement with Måsøval
2026-09-14 06:00:05
In 2022, Måsøval and Frøy Havbruk (formerly Frøya Laks) entered into a
cooperation agreement regarding the operation of Frøy Havbruk's licensed
biomass volume of 2,433 tonnes MAB. Since then, the parties have managed
operations by co-locating Frøy Havbruk's licensed volume at Måsøval's sites in
Production Area 6 (PO6). Value creation from production is shared via a
profit-sharing model between Frøy Havbruk, as the license holder, and Måsøval,
as the operator. A total of 2,915 GWT was harvested from Frøy Havbruk's
licenses in 2024, and 3,723 GWT was harvested in 2025.
Frøy Havbruk has now terminated the co-location agreement. The agreement
between the parties also governs the period following termination; the notice
period extends until all fish currently at Måsøval's sites have been
harvested, with a maximum period of 18 months before Frøy Havbruk can withdraw
its licenses. The final batch of smolt for Frøy's licenses was stocked at the
Heggeset site in week 36.
