Naval and governmental vessels operate on the frontline of national safety and global stability. Every mission demands trust between crew and command, between vessels and technology. That trust is built on systems that are available when it matters most. As the only all-Swedish propulsion supplier with consolidated production in Sweden, Berg Propulsion brings a legacy of commercial strength into defence applications, delivering solutions for operations where performance is key and failure is not an option.
Berg Propulsion develops propulsion solutions that serve this purpose. Engineered for precision, endurance and control, they keep fleets moving safely and efficiently through the world’s most demanding waters and situations. With long experience, strong competence and proven system reliability, we support operations that require stealth operation, tactical readiness and global serviceability.

CPP designed for endurance and stealth, in combination with high thrust and efficiency.
Fixed Pitch Propellers (FPP) are a time-tested propulsion technology known for their simplicity, durability, and cost-effectiveness.
Engineered for precision, the azimuth thruster offer full-rotation capabilities, making it an ideal choice for vessels requiring superior control and efficiency.
Transverse thrusters providing precise maneuverability in docking and patrol operations.
Integrated control and automation platform ensuring unified and secure operation.
A dual-fin propulsion system delivering superior hydrodynamic efficiency and low noise levels.
Berg Propulsion’s comprehensive shaftline approach involves assuming full responsibility for the entire propulsion line as a unified system, from the propeller through to the propulsion power source. Propeller blades are designed using advanced multi-objective optimization, tailored to the specific mission profile of each project. This process can prioritize goals such as maximizing efficiency or vessel speed, minimizing underwater radiated noise, increasing cavitation inception speed, and reducing low-harmonic pressure fluctuations.
CFD and rotordynamics analysis, model testing and project-specific calculations ensures optimized integration of propeller and carefully selected shaft components, as well as strut design.
Naval vessels and their onboard equipment are typically required to withstand and survive shock loads of a specified magnitude caused by underwater explosions.
Berg Propulsion shaftlines have been numerically verified to meet these shock requirements through robust system design, careful material selection, and effective damping solutions. This approach helps ensure propulsion system integrity and operational safety under critical conditions.
Berg Propulsion can support an Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) approach by providing tailored documentation aligned with specific customer requirements and military standards. This includes reliability data, provisioning and recommended spare parts lists, crew training and technical publications in accordance with the S1000D standard.
Through this approach, Berg Propulsion ensures that its products can be operated, maintained, and stored cost-effectively, while also meeting high standards for reliability and maintainability (RAMT) throughout the operational life of a naval vessel.
Modernization and system upgrades that extend vessel lifetime and adapt propulsion performance to evolving operational needs.
Genuine parts and ready-to-use service kits that ensure correct fit, predictable maintenance and dependable operation.
Maintenance, repair and overhaul services that support availability, compliance and long-term system reliability.
Modern naval vessels combine strength and agility. They must perform with precision under pressure, move quietly when required and operate efficiently across long missions.
Berg Propulsion systems are integrated in a variety of naval and governmental vessels, including coastal and littoral vessels designed for patrol and multi-role operations, as well as offshore and ocean-going vessels built for long-range surveillance and sustained duty at sea. Reference applications range from smaller patrol, SAR and auxiliary vessels to larger offshore patrol vessels, frigates, corvettes and supply vessels.
We are looking forward to hearing from you and discussing how we can be of assistance in making sure that your fleet is fully covered.
Berg Propulsion provides propulsion systems designed with a long-term perspective on performance, availability and support. By combining robust engineering with a lifecycle-focused approach, Berg supports customers from system design and integration through operation, maintenance and future upgrades.
Integrated logistics support, standardized solutions and global service capabilities enable predictable maintenance, efficient support and sustained performance throughout the system lifecycle. With a global presence and local expertise, Berg helps ensure reliable operation wherever vessels are deployed.
