Bergen, Goltens expand relationship

Bergen Engines has entered a sales and service partnership agreement with Goltens to support its marine offerings in Singapore, China, India, Germany, and the Netherlands.

Goltens will promote Bergen Engines for newbuilds, sell spare parts and perform maintenance services for Bergen’s marine customers. The aftermarket support will include planned maintenance using Bergen Engines’ original spare parts and components from Bergen’s worldwide exchange pool, which the company said guarantees quality overhauled parts ahead of dismantling, saving time and cost for customers.
