Public Profile

Offering a sustainable alternative to aquaculture, Forever Oceans Corporation provides complete aquaculture technologies that produce premium fish and farming techniques. Originally a spin-off of Lockheed Martin’s Mobile Fish Pens line of business - founded by the Forever's now President Heckathorn - after winning six commercial aquaculture contracts, and a TIME Magazine Best Inventions of the Year award, he spun the business off into the Forever Oceans Corporation. With facilities also in Hawaii and involving a team having expertise and experience in engineering, environmental science, and biology with industry experience in communication, robotics, biology, feeding, and offshore platforms, the firm offers a comprehensive solution backed by a suite of patents and trade secrets enabling its platform and operations. Protecting the environment while also feeding a growing population, the firm's real-time monitoring systems provide vital information on the health of the fish in the enclosures and on the state of the environment around them. The firm's open ocean platform requires sophisticated moorings, sensors, robotics, communications, and other capabilities come of years of incubation and building on proven Lockheed-Martin aerospace technologies relevant to the task
