Gertsen & Olufsen (G&O) | Oceanist Engineering

Oceanist Engineering supplies Gertsen & Olufsen (G&O) solutions designed to improve comfort, reliability, and environmental performance onboard. G&O’s portfolio combines engineered products for vibration management, wastewater treatment, bilge water handling, and oil-condition monitoring, supporting both newbuild and retrofit projects across commercial and offshore fleets.

Products & Solution Areas

  • Vibration Compensators for reducing unwanted vibration at the source and improving onboard comfort and equipment performance
  • Bioreactor Systems for biological treatment of black and grey water prior to discharge (project-dependent configurations)
  • Bilge Water Treatment Solutions (physical/biological treatment concepts, depending on selected system scope)
  • Water-in-Oil Monitoring to detect water contamination in lubricating and other oils, supporting preventive maintenance and breakdown avoidance

Typical Applications

  • Passenger and crew comfort improvement via vibration reduction on vessels with vibration-sensitive areas
  • Wastewater compliance and operational reliability for ships and offshore installations handling black/grey water onboard
  • Bilge water management where stable separation/treatment performance and operational simplicity are priorities
  • Condition monitoring programs for critical machinery where early detection of oil contamination reduces risk and downtime

What Oceanist Provides

  • Scope definition and specification support aligned with vessel type, compliance needs, and operational profile
  • Technical coordination with shipyards and project stakeholders for interfaces, footprints, and installation readiness
  • Execution support from procurement through installation and commissioning coordination
  • Aftermarket support coordination (spares, service planning, and lifecycle follow-up where applicable)
