What Jason Engineering AS does

Jason Engineering AS is a privately-held Norwegian designer and manufacturer of mission-critical components for marine external firefighting systems, founded in 1974 and headquartered in Drammen, Norway. The company's portfolio spans the full FiFi shipset: OGF-series centrifugal fire pumps (100–5,500 m³/h capacity), fire monitors from 80mm to 400mm (up to 3,900 m³/h), PLC-based remote control systems, foam proportioning systems, external water spray systems, diesel and electric drivers, integrated gearboxes and clutches, hydraulic telescopic masts (1–20m elevation), and dispersant systems including a SINTEF-validated X-BOW solution for enclosed-bow vessels. Products are designed to comply with classification society rules (FiFi I, II, and III class notations) and are custom-engineered to vessel specifications. Vertically integrated manufacturing is a core operating principle — following the 2007 acquisition of the Aker Kværner Subsea FiFi department, Jason produces fire monitors, pumps, transmissions, and electric/hydraulic controls in-house.

The company serves offshore support vessels, drilling rigs, floating production units, harbor and ocean-going tugs, fire boats, and petrochemical/oil spill response vessels worldwide. Its go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales from Norwegian headquarters with regional offices in China and Italy and a global network of qualified channel partners and agents. Customer acquisition is heavily event-driven, with confirmed participation at Nor-Shipping (Oslo), NAVALSHORE (Rio de Janeiro), Marintec China (Shanghai), Sea Asia (Singapore), INMEX SMM India (Mumbai), and Europort (Rotterdam). The revenue model is anchored on custom hardware sales, supplemented by engineering and design services and recurring after-market service including commissioning, technical support, spare parts, and training. The company holds ISO 9001:2015 certification and underwent an internal group reorganization in October 2023.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• SINTEF Materials and ChemistrycoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerSINTEF provided chemistry expert advice for development of the Dispersant System X-BOW Solution. SINTEF research showed traditional dispersant systems have limited effectiveness, leading to collaborative development of improved hydraulic operated support beam with twin manifold spray nozzles. SINTEF testing validated performance in both laboratory and field conditions, including Arctic testing.
