Recently, news broke about the delivery of the " Argos Berbés ", the largest fishing vessel built in Spain , built by the Nodosa shipyard for the Vigo-based Pereira shipbuilder . This once again highlights the volume of profits generated by the illegal and alarming exploitation of natural resources in the region of the Malvina Islands by British usurpers and their allies. In this case, Spain.

The new ship is scheduled to begin operations in the waters of the Malvinas in early 2025. It cost 30 million euros and is operated by Orion Fishing Company , a joint venture that unites the Galician firm with its partner in the Malvinas, Argos Group.

The hull of the boat, with an inverted bow design, with a length of 85 meters has been optimized to improve performance in any sea condition, mainly in adverse weather situations .

The vessel has equipment to mitigate the incidental mortality of birds and other marine species and the refrigeration plant works with ammonia as a primary refrigerant, eliminating gases and reducing the impact and damage to the ozone layer .

In turn, weeks ago Nodosa delivered a boat with similar characteristics to Pescapuerta , another Spanish company from the town of Vigo . This is the vessel “ Prion ”, which will also be incorporated , in this case in February , to capture Patagonian squid in the Argentine waters of the Malvinas Islands.
