The Finnish manufacturer Wärtsilä expands its offering and global service workshop footprint in turbocharger services.
According to own information Wärtsilä has to date made a significant investment in over 20 turbocharger service workshops globally with full capability to servic[ds_preview]e turbochargers. The specialised workshops are equipped with modern tools and equipment for turbocharger maintenance and are capable of performing a wide range of turbocharger service work.
Specialised and certified service engineers are trained for turbocharger overhauls both at workshops and on-site. Wärtsilä‘s specialised turbocharger workshops operate in close co-operation with global service centres, providing assistance in troubleshooting, maintenance, upgrades and replacements. For customers, this means increased flexibility, reduced operational risks and savings in time and costs, since they have the possibility to overhaul the turbocharger at the same time with the engine the company stated.
New service workshop in Schiedam, the Netherlands
In March, Wärtsilä opened the most recent renewed service workshop in Schiedam, Netherlands. Other turbocharger workshops include for example Fort Lauderdale, USA; Quito, Ecuador; Gaziantep and Istanbul, Turkey; Dubai, UAE; Mumbai, India and Jakarta, Indonesia. These workshops operate flexibly with each other and other Wärtsilä service centres. Similarly, turbocharger service workshops will be linked to other Wärtsilä service centres in other areas as well.
Keeping turbochargers in prime condition and up to date is essential for the overall performance of an engine said Wärtsilä. A well-maintained turbocharger ensures optimised fuel economy and extends the lifetime of the equipment. Regular maintenance prevents costly damage and downtime, increasing customers‘ profitability.
In addition to the locations listed above, the Finnish company has turbocharger workshops also in Murmansk, Russia; Rubbestadneset, Norway; Gdansk, Poland; Genova, Italy; Bermeo, Spain; Maia, Portugal; New Orleans, USA; Houston, USA; Ciudad de Carmen, Mexico; Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic; Baku, Azerbaijan and Perth, Australia.
