Extend Service Life and Reduce Costs

Steady growth of international seaborne trade and ongoing investment in shipbuilding is fueling substantial growth in the marine propulsion market. But as the market grows, maritime companies are looking to reduce operational costs by extending the service life and efficiency of their turbines.

Ship owners and builders are utilizing lighter aero-derived engines for new builds or replacement of older diesel engines. Aero-derived engines deliver one horse power for every 1.5 pound of turbine weight versus 10 pounds for every horse power for older turbine models. This weight savings reduces fuel costs and moves consumption away from dirtier diesel fuels.

United Power marine turbine packages are designed for the challenges and requirements of the industry. Our engineers work to design the marine package around the vessel itself – and to our customers expectations. 

With ratings to 75,000 SHP, our light weight marine turbines operate in limited space and deliver greater efficiency. To extend service life, United Power marine packages are protected by durable coatings from the harsh saline atmosphere. 

To extend service life, field service technicians are available worldwide to perform on site analysis and preventative maintenance. Every technician is trained and certified to deliver quality service for our complete line of gas turbines.

You can also manage costs with the best turbine warranty in the industry. It includes a long term service program, technical standard order (TSO) and covers one year or 8,000 fired hours.
