At RM Propulsion, we specialize in service for Ulstein thrusters. Additionally, we support a wide range of other propulsion systems. These include trusted brands such as Kongsberg®, Wärtsilä®, Brunvoll®, Kawasaki®, and Berg Propulsion®. Because we are independent, we offer honest advice and fast, effective service, free from OEM restrictions.
In particular, we work on all major Ulstein thruster types. These include Azipull thrusters for 360° control, tunnel thrusters for lateral maneuvering, and retractable units for flexible deployment and efficiency. As a result, you’ll find these systems on offshore vessels, cable layers, DP-class ships, ferries, and heavy-lift carriers. Whatever your operation, we help ensure your thrusters remain reliable and fully compliant.
We offer complete support for overhauls and urgent repairs. This includes five- and ten-year overhauls with seal, liner, and bearing replacement. In addition, we perform diagnostics, troubleshooting, shaftline alignment, and parts identification. What’s more, we provide free technical advice, both before and after the work is completed.
To sum up, our goal is to minimize downtime and extend the service life of your propulsion system. Click here for more information about our Propulsion Thrusters services.

If your vessel uses a different Ulstein model, we’ll help identify the correct parts and define the right servicing approach.. Contact us for more info about our spare parts range.
We’re fully independent. That means we focus solely on your vessel’s performance, without pressure from manufacturers. Our engineers know Ulstein thruster systems inside and out. Moreover, we provide OEM-quality parts at more competitive prices. Whether you’re docked or at sea, we respond quickly and professionally, worldwide.
The five-year overhaul helps identify wear early and protect critical components. During this service, we dismantle and inspect all essential parts. Then, we clean internal areas and replace seals, O-rings, and gaskets. As a result, the thruster maintains performance and avoids unplanned failures.
We recommend completing this service during a scheduled drydock to minimize vessel disruption.
The ten-year overhaul is more extensive. It includes complete replacement of wear-prone parts like bearings, liners, and blade foot seals. We also verify tolerances and assess for deeper wear or internal fatigue.
This overhaul ensures long-term system health and supports full class compliance, giving you peace of mind for years to come.
