Innovasea Launches Topian Initiative for Sustainable Seafood in Saudi Arabia
Innovasea, a leader in aquatic technology, has successfully implemented its state-of-the-art aquaculture systems in the Red Sea, aiming to cultivate greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili). This initiative is a significant feat within Topian’s aquaculture program, a key component of the NEOM project in Saudi Arabia.
Introducing SeaProtean Pens
In 2025, Innovasea made waves by deploying its revolutionary SeaProtean Pens, marking the first-ever utilization of this fully submersible technology in the region. Designed to withstand extreme heat, these pens allowed operators to submerge fish below the thermocline, ensuring their survival through the intense summer months.
Benefits of Fully Submersible Design
The SeaProtean system not only enhances fish survival rates but also preserves the natural beauty of the ocean. “The SeaProtean Pen is engineered for extreme environments, making previously unfeasible regions accessible for aquaculture,” said Innovasea’s General Manager, Marc Turano.
Advanced Technology Integration
Equipped with cutting-edge technology, the pens utilize precision aquaculture tools, including:
- Environmental sensors for monitoring water conditions.
- AI-powered biomass cameras that help track fish growth insights.
- High-definition cameras for full visibility of underwater operations.
- The Innovasea FlowFeeder™ for efficient, automated fish feeding.
Real-Time Management with Realfish Pro
To complement these features, operators can manage their aquaculture systems using Realfish Pro, a cloud-based platform that amalgamates real-time data with analytics and advanced tracking modules.
A Commitment to Sustainable Practices
CEO of Innovasea, Mark Jollymore, expressed enthusiasm about partnering with Topian, stating, “This collaboration enables us to showcase precision aquaculture’s benefits while setting the stage for significant growth in the region.”
Supporting Food Security Initiatives
Topian’s efforts are closely aligned with the NEOM project’s objectives to ensure food security and provide sustainable nutritional options while reducing dependence on food imports. The company’s CEO, Majid Mufti, emphasized the commitment to utilizing innovative technologies to improve nutrition in an environmentally responsible manner.
