“For years, Caterpillar has been a trusted supplier of power solutions to help protect and secure the world’s waters and shorelines,” Tim Booth, Caterpillar Defense & Federal Products marine program manager stated. “Now, with the availability of comprehensive Cat Propulsion products, we are able to provide integrated, value-enhancing solutions beyond our traditional product offerings for military organizations around the globe.”

The launch of Cat Propulsion Systems builds on Caterpillar’s introduction of integrated propulsion and maneuvering systems for pleasure craft vessels in 2011. For customers in the commercial marine industry, specifically the offshore, tug and salvage, dredge and merchant segments, the Cat Propulsion System enables them to readily purchase a trusted Cat power solution as well as a heavy duty thruster or propeller system without having to rely on a third party vendor. Caterpillar is able to optimize the propulsion system to maximize efficiency, maximize vessel availability and minimize operation cost.
