Vessel Description

GADUS NEPTUN is a Norwegian-flagged fish factory vessel built in 2013 at Kleven Verft in Ulsteinvik, Norway. The vessel is designed for deep-sea fishing and onboard fish processing operations, enabling full factory processing capabilities at sea. Operating primarily in the North Atlantic, Norwegian Sea, and Barents Sea, the vessel is equipped to conduct large-scale pelagic and demersal fishing operations. As a modern factory trawler, she combines harvesting and processing functions, allowing for extended voyages with the capacity to process, freeze, and store catches onboard. Her relatively large gross tonnage and beam reflect the significant onboard factory and storage infrastructure required for industrial-scale fish processing operations.
