Signed in March, Goltens Worldwide’s new global service agreement with H. Cegielski Service brings great benefits to both parties.

Wholly owned subsidiary H. Cegielski Service provides aftersales services for H. Cegielski - Poznan S.A in Poznan, Poland. H. Cegielski-Poznan’s manufacturing program includes main propulsion engines made under license from MAN Diesel A/S and Wärtsilä Switzerland. With roughly 1,050 main engines in service, H. Cegielski-Poznan produces around 20 main engines and 100 auxiliary engines per year.

With the agreement allowing both companies to engage the technical resources of the other, both companies intend to leverage their relative strengths to the benefit of their customers. “We place great value on the agreement’s potential based upon Goltens’ experience and ability to perform sophisticated repairs, correspondingly equipped by proper, required tools, people and other resources,” notes Jacek Wyszynski,

President/Managing Director of H. Cegielski Service. Central to Goltens’ interest was Cegielski’s long-standing market reputation as a high-quality manufacturer and Cegielski Service’s pool of expert technical talent. “We felt that the coupling of Cegielski’s worldwide service requirements with Goltens’ global network of companies would provide significant benefits to all, and we are extremely enthusiastic about the agreement,” says Goltens Worldwide Services President Paul Friedberg.

 

Represented by Goltens Korea Country Manager K.O. Kim, Goltens recently signed an agreement with Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd – the world’s largest engine builder – for the servicing of all Himsen Engine (Hyundai’s in-house developed marine diesel engine) products.

Goltens’ Dubai, Rotterdam, Singapore and Shanghai units are all included in this agreement and have responsibilities for their geographic areas. The deal entails not only Himsen engines, but all of their products – including two- and four-stroke Hyundai-Man B&W and Hyundai-Wartsila engines, cargo pumps, thrusters, etc.

 “We will provide quick mobilisation and commit to service personnel availability on short notice in order to provide Hyundai, Himsen and their customers the best possible warranty service available,” says Kim.
