ABOUT US

AquaShip is the result of a merger between GripShip AS and Johnson Marine Ltd in July 2018, with a subsequent acquisition of Artic Shipping AS two months later.

The merger has made us the first shipping company in the world to own and operate vessels in all four main areas of maritime aqua service: Service vessels, harvest vessels, live fish carriers and feeding carriers.

Although we operate all over the world, our decentralized organization brings us close to our customers and their markets. This – combined with years of experience – makes us a natural partner for both large and small fish farming companies.

Our main goal is to contribute to further growth in the market, or more specifically – to help our customers produce as much fish as possible. To achieve that goal, we rely on:

Long-lasting customer relationships and reliable services
Modern vessels with up-to-date technology
Crew with hands-on experience
New and innovative solutions
