Client
Feedback
“The
feedback from our clients is based on real life projects and cases. This
includes cases where cutting edge know-how on communications technology is of
the greatest importance to ensure an acceptable result.
The
feedback given from the clients show a positive result and give proof of a
positive cost/value effect, both in the short and long term.”
Reduced
need for investments
“The
alternative was to replace the existing feed barge with a newer one. This would
have resulted in an investment need of approx. € 1,5 mill to € 2,0 mill.
By being
able to extend the life span of the existing feed barge by 2-3 years, SCG
contributes to a reduction in financial cost of approx. € 0,25 mill, thereby
reducing the pressure on our budget of investments. In addition to this, a
higher grade of efficiency, comfort and security for the employees is achieved
as well as the fact of using feed barges without overnight accommodations in
the future.”
Bad weather
“In
2008/2009 we had at one of our sites approx. 60 days of not being able to
access the barge, thereby not being able to feed the fish. This is now expected
reduced to almost nil. In January we had 15 days of a weather conditions
stopping us from accessing the feed barge, but we were able to commence feeding
and controlling the fish thanks to SCG.
This is
also an important factor of safety for the employees and can also result in
better use and control of feed.”
Without
wire, not without control
“To be able
to run operations from land we are dependent on a communication infrastructure
covering all sites in the designated area. Often they are hard to access,
situated in deep fjords surrounded by high mountains, something that requires
an extensive network for coverage. We have ourselves tried to establish
communication between two sites with free line of sight, but even that has been
very difficult to establish with a satisfactory grade of stability and quality.
To set up a structure of masts on mountaintops etc. is not an option for us.
The establishment and service of a communication network is not our line of
business, but must be left to the experts by means of telecommunications.”
Choose your
own supplier!
“We often
have different suppliers on technical equipment, giving a lot of different
equipment on our different sites. If we are to operate all sites from the same
place or Operations Centre we are dependent on this happening by means of one
remote operating system that serves it all. The information displayed in the
Control Panel must be correct no matter who supplies the sensory or cameras to
the sites. SCG ensures us also the flexibility we need to choose whoever we
want the next time we purchase cameras or sensory equipment for the different
sites.”
