Kongsberg Maritime Strengthens Presence in the Philippines with New Office

Kongsberg Maritime is establishing a new office in Manila, creating a stronger local platform for growth and reinforcing its long-term commitment to customers, partners and the wider maritime community in the Philippines. The office will officially open on 23 October.

Kongsberg Maritime supports the Philippine maritime sector with simulation, propulsion and manoeuvring solutions, spare parts for shipowners and cooperation with shipyards. The Manila office will provide a permanent base to coordinate these activities, strengthen customer support and pursue new opportunities.

The office builds on more than 30 years of collaboration between Kongsberg Maritime’s Maritime Simulation business and the Philippine maritime community. Nine employees are currently based in the country, with scope to expand local commercial, technical and customer support capabilities.

Kongsberg Maritime has relationships with approximately 100 customers in the Philippines across maritime education and training, commercial shipping, government and maritime administration. A permanent local presence will enable faster responses, closer collaboration on planning, upgrades, training and innovation, and more efficient project delivery.
