Replacing aging heat exchangers with high-efficiency FARAD S.A. units directly improves a vessel's Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) rating by optimizing main engine thermal stability and reducing auxiliary power loads. By maintaining tighter temperature control, vessels burn less fuel for the same output, lowering CO2 emissions and reducing the owner's financial liability under the 2026 EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS).
Our retrofit solutions are engineered to deliver measurable financial and environmental returns.
Aging coolers force auxiliary engines to work harder. You pay for this twice: once in fuel, and again in carbon tax.
Generic replacements often lack proper Class approvals, risking detention during Port State Control inspections.
FCM Data Analysis identifies thermal inefficiency.
Custom sizing of FARAD units via factory software.
Manufacturing & Logistics to Baltic/North Sea ports.
DNV/LR/BV Class Approval & Installation.
"We don't just ship boxes. We engineer compliance."

Designed for the harsh realities of the North Sea and Baltic operations. Our units are built to withstand high pressure and corrosive environments while delivering maximum thermal transfer.
3D Models, CAD Drawings & Thermal Calculations included.
"We needed a custom Charge Air Cooler retrofit for a 15-year-old tanker to avoid CII penalties. Nordic Marine Systems handled the 3D scan, FARAD production, and logistics in 3 weeks. They saved our dry dock schedule."
Get a complimentary thermal efficiency audit estimate within 24 hours. Stop guessing and start engineering your compliance strategy.
Limited engineering slots available for Q2 2026 dry docks.
Nordic Marine Systems is the authorized distributor for FARAD S.A. in the Baltic and North Europe regions, providing direct factory warranty and support.
By optimizing heat transfer coefficients (k-value), our units reduce the load on auxiliary engines, directly lowering fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which are key metrics for CII calculations.
Yes. Our engineering team manages the entire approval process with DNV, Lloyd's Register, and Bureau Veritas, providing all necessary 3D models and drawings.
Thanks to our European manufacturing base, we can typically deliver custom units 30-40% faster than Asian suppliers, avoiding deep-sea logistics delays.
We provide turnkey solutions including the unit, engineering drawings, and coordination with fabrication partners for any necessary metal structure work during dry dock.
