Qaleralik A/S orders new factory from Carsoe
The turn-key order includes a complete processing factory for shrimp, halibut, and cod. The new factory trawler is replacing an existing vessel and once again Qaleralik, partly owned by Royal Greenland, chooses a Carsoe processing factory.

A three-lane factory
The onboard factory is designed with three lines. One for halibut, one for cod, and one for shrimp.
On the shrimp line the catch is sorted and graded before continuing to the complete onboard cooking line. The halibut are sorted and processed. J-cut, whole round, head, and tales. The cod line ensures effective heading and gutting of the catch.
The three processing lines meet at the freezing section, where the processed catch is frozen before proceeding to automatic sorting and palletizing in the packing section. Here, the freezing blocks and IQF-shrimp are sorted and palletized by species.
The layered wrapping ensures safe storage at sea. Once palletized, the onboard elevators transport the catch to the cargo hold. This fully automated Carsoe handling system optimizes onboard processes and requires less manpower in the cargo hold.
Multiple freezing options
With a combined freezing capacity of 80 tons per 24 hours, the new trawler has a very strong freezer setup.
Two automatic plate freezers, two complete IQF freezing tunnels and four vertical freezers are designed to ensure effective and high-capacity onboard freezing. This means that the factory vessel can process and freezer more cargo per trip and fulfill their quotas quickly.
All three types of freezers are designed, produced, and installed by Carsoe to complete the turnkey factory solution from a single supplier.
The vessel is to be delivered in October 2022 and will fish in the waters around Greenland.
