Propulsion upgrades deliver the greatest return when they address a specific operational challenge or prepare a vessel for what comes next. A Berg Propulsion retrofit engineered by Thompson Marine is the right solution when:
Complete Propulsion Solutions
Thompson Marine sales and supports the complete line of Berg Propulsion products in the United States. Thompson Marine’s engineering team designs complete propulsion packages, integrating Berg systems with marine gears, power management systems, vessel monitoring, and electrical infrastructure. Every project is delivered with full shipyard-ready documentation, including wiring diagrams, installation layouts, shaftline drawings, and custom piping designs, so that the installation proceeds with precision and without ambiguity.
Proven Experience
That capability extends to the most complex propulsion configurations in commercial service. Thompson Marine has engineered and commissioned hundreds of vessels including hybrid mechanical and electrical propulsion systems, Berg Z-drives, electric motors, variable frequency drives, and custom control integration for commercial harbor tugs.
A Shared Commitment to Practical Marine Solutions
Berg Propulsion and Thompson Marine share a commitment to reliable, practical engineering that performs where it matters most, in the demanding conditions of commercial marine operations. Berg’s shipyard origins and century-long focus on hydrodynamics reflect the same values that have guided Thompson Marine for decades of marine service. That alignment is not incidental. It is why the distributor relationship works, and why Thompson Marine customers have access to a level of application engineering and long-term support that is rare in the commercial marine industry.
