Marine engineering focuses on a vessel’s machinery and auxiliary systems. This includes main and auxiliary prime movers (engines), generators, electrical systems, cargo systems (including pumps), ballast systems, fire main systems, potable water systems, sewage systems, and related equipment. Marine engineers primarily design and specify equipment located in the main engine room and auxiliary machinery spaces, as well as systems found throughout a vessel.

Bristol Harbor Group, Inc.'s marine engineers bring many years of hands-on experience, both aboard vessels and in shipyards. This practical background allows our engineers to better understand operational and technical challenges. While our marine engineering practice focuses primarily on the design of new vessels, our engineers also support repowerings and mechanical and electrical upgrades.
