INLAND WATERWAY SOLUTIONS AND SERVICES
Inland cargo boats such as push tugs, bulk carriers, and tankers, as well as inland river cruise vessels, work long hours and must adjust to various conditions in a single voyage. For customers to operate their vessels safely and cost-effectively, they need highly reliable engines that are certified to meet the most stringent emission standards.
Caterpillar Marine offers industry-leading engines and generator sets capable of meeting the power needs of inland waterway operators without sacrificing fuel efficiency. Our engines are backed by decades of experience and innovation to deliver the reliable performance you need at the industry's lowest total cost of ownership. Our Cat® dealer network provides expert product support, a wide range of services, and available parts.
Caterpillar engines and generator sets are certified to meet stringent emissions standards worldwide. Your Cat Dealer can support you in finding the right engine or generator set for your application. From river cruises required to meet EU Stage V emissions in European waterways to cargo vessels required to comply with US EPA Tier 4 Final.
Once your vessel is on the water, your Cat Dealer can support you throughout the entire lifecycle of your engine. Our services range from maintenance to overhauls, engine upgrades, Cat Reman parts, or repowers to the newest technology. We have a solution that meets your needs and budget, regardless of the engine's age.
