Tugboat engines
Uncompromisingly reliable mtu propulsion systems provide maximum maneuverability and a strong bollard pull for your workboat at all times.
Tugboats are compact powerhouses that are always on call to perform tough tasks in all situations. Whether it’s a harbor, oceangoing or anchor handling tug, their diverse job requirements are matched by our wide range of tug boat engines. They are capable of rising to any challenge with a performance spectrum of 400 kW (Series 2000) to 3200kW (Series 4000). We can also offer higher levels of performance for a higher bollard pull of your tugboat propulsion system.
All of our diesel and gas engines perform at the highest levels of reliability with fast load uptake, even in the most challenging conditions. Their high torque levels make towing vessels exceptionally agile, maneuverable and safe – and always ready for action. As an experienced system provider, we also offer onboard power generators and ship automation systems that work perfectly with our robust engines.
