Our portfolio Vessel designs are constantly evolving. Technologies and processes onboard newly built vessels as well as those used for modernizations are increasingly complex. In order to help owners and operators successfully address ever growing market and economic challenges, they must also be efficient and effective. That’s the underlying premise of our marine solutions approach: continuously finding and developing innovations aimed at keeping your business operating and competing successfully and sustainably. For example, intelligent space and load-saving solutions or state-of-the-art automation technologies providing a high level of integration as part of a dedicated system.

Providing solutions for cruise liners means to find a good balance between comfort and performance. Low noise and vibration levels matter as does the reliability of the technology.

Our technological innovations and improvements for all aspects of power generation and drives are setting new standards in passenger transportation.

More than any other type of ship, yachts need to be unique. We offer modularized solutions for the high demands of individual design and economical operation.

Functional reliability and economical efficiency are crucial for container vessels as they have to manage tight timetables and all kinds of weather conditions while delivering cargo all around the world.

The success of offshore operations is closely linked to the performance and reliability of the technical systems. All onboard processes are facing strict requirements as to availability, safety and profitability.

Explore the great variety of our vessel solutions: We offer technologies for highly specialized vessels like icebreakers, seismic vessels, tankships and more.

Naval vessels need to meet the highest standards in every respect. They have to combine maximum overall performance with the highest reliability, availability, and robustness.

Submarines have to deal with very special environmental conditions. Durability and economical efficiency are key to successfully operating on the surface as well as underwater.
