Norwegian aquaculture conglomerate NTS, owner of Midt-Norsk Havbruk and the largest shareholder in Norway Royal Salmon, said it's considering splitting off its aquaculture logistics and services division from its salmon farming operations to position the divisions for further growth.

NTS is a major supplier of transportation and logistics services to the aquaculture industry, operating a fleet of 17 wellboats, 64 service vessels and four transport vessels.
