Kongsberg Maritime
Kongsberg Maritime ship systems, supplied and serviced in Iceland
Héðinn supports the full Kongsberg Maritime marine range for the Icelandic fleet: automation and control, propulsion, winches and deck machinery, and ship design. Sales, installation, service, and spare-parts support from one team.
One partner for Kongsberg Maritime systems across the vessel
Kongsberg Maritime is one of the most established marine systems suppliers serving the Icelandic fishing and commercial fleet. Its portfolio spans vessel design, propulsion, deck machinery, and integrated automation, much of it built on the engineering traditions of Ulstein, Kamewa, and Brattvaag.
The collaboration dates back to 1951, when Héðinn first signed a winch-equipment agreement with Brattvaag Hydraulik. Héðinn is today an authorized service provider for Kongsberg Maritime in Iceland, providing sales, installation, service, and spare-parts support. The Ship and Machinery Department connects supplier-backed product knowledge with local workshop and field-service capacity, so vessel owners deal with one team across the whole Kongsberg range.
Whether the project is a newbuild specification, a planned upgrade, or an urgent repair, Héðinn coordinates parts, installation, and technical support to keep the vessel working.
Kongsberg Systems

Support across the equipment lifecycle
From first specification to long-term service, Héðinn covers the full Kongsberg Maritime scope with one team.
Sales and specification
Héðinn helps specify the right Kongsberg system for the vessel type and operation, drawing on decades of installed-fleet experience.
Installation and integration
The Ship and Machinery Department installs and integrates equipment with existing propulsion, deck, and control systems, for newbuild and retrofit projects alike.
Service and maintenance
Planned maintenance, fault diagnosis, and repair, at the quayside or in the Hafnarfjörður workshop, keep systems operating reliably.
Spare-parts support
Genuine Kongsberg Maritime parts are sourced through the supplier network, with common items held in stock to reduce off-hire time.
Kongsberg products have been proven in Icelandic vessels for decades
Kongsberg Maritime equipment can be found in over 100 vessels around Iceland, much of it installed and maintained by Héðinn over many years, with service available around the clock.
That installed base is a practical advantage. The team knows the systems, holds parts for common models, and can advise on the point where a targeted upgrade is more sensible than continued repair of an older generation.
Ilivileq: the Kongsberg range on one working trawler
When Brim's 82-metre stern trawler Ilivileq GR 2-201 arrived in Reykjavík in 2020, it carried the breadth of the range Héðinn supports: an NVC 375 WP vessel design, Promas propulsion, the Kongsberg Electric Winch system with permanent-magnet motors, and Acon-R integrated control and monitoring.
Vessels like Ilivileq show what one supplier can cover across a modern working vessel. The same systems, installed across the Icelandic fleet, are what the Ship and Machinery Department supports every day.
