The DPPO’s pelagic fleet is the first in Europe to introduce fully documented fishing on all vessels. The DPPO plans to install CCTV and associated sensors on all its vessels. The DPPO’s pelagic fleet is one of the world’s most modern and advanced. Danish pelagic fishers land
annually over 400,000 tonnes of healthy, sustainably caught herring, mackerel and other species to supply millions of consumers worldwide. These consumers will now be given the additional assurance that the fish is caught and handled responsibly and in full compliance with rules and regulations in Denmark and the EU.
From 2023, all vessels in the DPPO will be connected to a closed data system operated and owned by the DPPO with the assistance of independent third parties. The transparent system will record and store all relevant fisheries related data from the vessels, including video from CCTV surveillance. All data and information from the fishing operations will be made available directly to the Danish Fisheries Agency and
other relevant public and private partners. The DPPO is thus issuing a call for tender for a contractor to develop, install and service the REM system according to the Terms of Reference specified in this document. The tender must be submitted to senior advisor at DPPO Lise Laustsen at ll@pelagisk.dk by 20th of December 2022.
