Innovations

In order to comply with regulations, as well as minimise environmental impact, cruise operators will need new technical solutions. The ULSTEIN ZED power system allows cruise operators to visit vulnerable and protected areas without greenhouse gas emissions and local pollution.

Following the introduction of our first hydrogen fuelled, zero emission design in 2019, we now reveal our vision towards a marine hydrogen future. Where the ULSTEIN SX190 showcased that zero emission ships can be realised with today’s off-the-shelf technology, we now map the way to a hydrogen fuelled marine industry.

Is a bow really a necessity for large ships? A heightened stern, the TWIN X-STERN, can operate either way, thus facilitating on-site DP positioning. This idea was nominated for the Innovation of the Year Award at the OSJ Conference 2016.

OHT sets new benchmark in heavy offshore transport and installation. The vessel has the ability to perform heavy lift crane operations with the main deck submerged.

A series of trawlers in which the harvesting methods are less damaging to the catch, resulting in increased quality of the end product. The hull and propulsion solutions provide for reduced fuel consumption and less emissions to air.

For one year, in connection with a big data project on board the ‘Rem Hrist’, Remøy Shipping has reduced fuel consumption by more than 10% by analyzing the ship's Big Data. The company has therefore decided to install the Ulstein developed Blue Box on two more ships.

The X-CONNECT® system architecture takes products coming from ULSTEIN to a new standard in terms of flexibility and scalability. With our effort on offering a platform that utilize digital possibilities, you can offer ship intelligence that makes your business smarter, safer and greener.

30 per cent reduction in fuel consumption: The 'Ulstein hybrid propulsion concept' combines higher efficiency and better performance at high loads and excellent fuel consumption at low loads. Hybrid propulsion is the perfect match for the operational profile of anchor handling tug supply/offshore construction vessels.

With creative enthusiasm we combine skills, knowledge and creativity to come up with new concepts, solutions and products that can carry the maritime industry into the future. Through our history, we have received a number of nominations and awards, some of which are listed below.
