Naval & Governmental

Bergen Engines is a trusted supplier of propulsion engines and generating sets for naval vessels to the Royal Norwegian and other sovereign navies around the world.

Naval applications have particularly demanding requirements for performance, availability and service. We pride ourselves in meeting and exceeding such standards.

Advanced technology, combined with robust manufacturing and high reliability, make Bergen engines a preferred choice for Marine operations such as coast guard, research vessels, multi-function support ships, diving support vessels, tankers, tugs, prepositioning, seismic, logistics and auxiliary vessels, as well as combat ships. We also deliver generating sets for land based naval installations.

Cost Efficient, Reliable & Quiet Operation

Optimized for low fuel consumption and single-fuel operation, our engines increase range, reduce fuel costs and simplify logistics.

With long service intervals and durable design, our engines minimize downtime, lowering lifecycle costs and maximize fleet availability.

As a partner in the EU-funded “Lownoiser” research project, we’re pioneering quieter engine technology and advanced mounting solutions for reduced underwater noise.

The KV Jan Mayen, delivered in May 2023, is the first of three offshore patrol vessels in the Jan Mayen class, designed for the Royal Norwegian Navy. Built by Vard Langsten, the vessel’s primary mission is to support Norway’s extensive coast guard operations, which include fisheries inspections, search and rescue, oil spill response, and territorial defense.

At 136 meters long and with a displacement of 10,400 tonnes, the Jan Mayen is powered by four Bergen B33:45L8A generator sets, each delivering 4.8 MW, providing reliable power for both its propulsion and operational systems. These engines are designed for high performance and fuel efficiency, enabling the vessel to operate in the challenging environments often encountered by the Norwegian Coast Guard.
