KROHNE Marine

What KROHNE Marine does

KROHNE Marine is the dedicated Global Industry Division Marine of the privately held KROHNE Group, headquartered in Brevik, Norway, and operating in the marine industry since 1957. The division supplies certified measurement systems and solutions for the safe monitoring of liquids onboard commercial vessels, with a product portfolio spanning flow measurement, level measurement, temperature measurement, pressure measurement, and process analytics, complemented by accessories and integrated monitoring, flow metering, and wireless/remote metering solutions. Its underlying technology is marine-class industrial instrumentation - hardware sensors and meters engineered and type-approved to shipboard and environmental regulations - sold alongside engineering, project management, commissioning, and training services.

The division monetizes through three streams: hardware sales of certified measurement products and systems; professional services covering complete engineering, project management, commissioning, and training; and a recurring after-sales service and spare parts business tied to its installed base. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales combined with an exclusive global network of sales representatives and service agents positioned across all major shipping hubs and shipbuilding countries, with a US regional office in Beverly, Massachusetts, and direct-contact channels including phone, email, and a 'Request an Engineer' form. Pricing is contact-based and not publicly disclosed.

KROHNE Marine serves three primary customer segments - ship owners, ship managers, and shipyards - across a broad range of vessel classes including container ships, cruise ships, ferries, tankers, gas carriers, FSUs/FSOs/FPSOs, heavy lifters, supply ships, semi-submersibles, dredgers, and barges. The Brevik, Norway operation is certified to ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 14001 (environmental management). The division is small relative to the broader KROHNE Group, with 29 reported employees, and operates as part of a diversified industrial conglomerate with no independent public financials, funding events, or disclosed revenue figures.

Broad incumbents

• Wärtsilä Marine Solutions: Wärtsilä provides marine solutions including engine room automation, fuel monitoring, and integrated ship systems with measurement components. A Finnish incumbent in marine services that overlaps with KROHNE Marine's ship owner/yard customer base.
• Siemens Marine: Siemens provides marine automation, electrical, and process measurement solutions for shipbuilding and offshore. Competes with KROHNE Marine for integrated shipboard monitoring specifications but as part of a much larger industrial conglomerate.
• Emerson Automation Solutions (Rosemount): Emerson's Rosemount line is a global leader in industrial pressure, temperature, flow, and level instrumentation with significant marine and offshore applications. A much larger incumbent competing across the same product categories but as part of a broader automation portfolio rather than a marine specialist.
• Honeywell Process Solutions: Honeywell offers industrial measurement and process automation solutions that address marine and offshore markets. Larger incumbent competing for marine process monitoring specifications with a broad industrial portfolio.
• ABB Measurement & Analytics: ABB offers flow, level, pressure, temperature, and analytical measurement products used extensively in marine and offshore applications, often bundled with marine propulsion and automation systems. Larger incumbent competing for marine newbuild specifications with a much broader portfolio.

Direct peers

• VEGA Grieshaber: VEGA specializes in level measurement instrumentation (radar, capacitive, ultrasonic) for industrial and marine applications including tank and ballast monitoring. Comparable niche measurement specialist competing in KROHNE Marine's core level measurement category.
• Endress+Hauser: Endress+Hauser is a privately held German family-owned specialist in industrial process measurement instruments (flow, level, pressure, temperature, analytics) with marine-specific offerings and global service network. Closest direct comparable to KROHNE Marine by product portfolio, customer segments, and marine application focus.
• WIKA Alexander Wiegand SE: WIKA is a German manufacturer of industrial measurement instrumentation including pressure, temperature, level, and flow with marine-specific certified product lines. Comparable to KROHNE Marine as a family-owned industrial measurement specialist.
• Yokogawa Electric: Yokogawa supplies industrial process measurement (flow, pressure, temperature, level) and process analytics with marine applications. Closely comparable to KROHNE Marine in measurement technology portfolio and target customers.

Regional players

• Kongsberg Maritime: Kongsberg Maritime is a Norwegian-headquartered peer providing integrated shipboard systems including automation, navigation, and sensors. Comparable in regional (Scandinavian) origin and in selling into the same Norwegian/European shipbuilding cluster, though broader in scope than measurement only.
