The Azimuth Propulsion Company
Steerprop
The Azimuth
Propulsion
Company
Steerprop Ltd. is the center of azimuth propulsion technology. The global

Steerprop team has decades of experience in all aspects of maritime azimuth
propulsion.
Based on this extensive experience and utilizing the latest technology, Steerprop
Ltd. designs and produces azimuth propulsors for the global maritime industry.
The goal of Steerprop Ltd. is to provide customers with azimuth propulsors with
an excellent lifetime economy.
To ensure this, the products of Steerprop Ltd. are designed and produced to be not
only of outstanding quality in construction but also extremely efficient in operation.
Reliability
A great deal of effort has been put into Steerprop
Azimuth Propulsors to ensure that they are
the most dependable azimuth propulsors
available. Reliability has an immense
impact on the total lifecycle economy.
For this reason, the design of
Steerprop products is kept
as simple and fail-safe
as possible.
Performance
Propulsor efficiency and performance
influence both vessel performance (such
as speed and bollard pull) and fuel
consumption. Vessel performance and
fuel consumption in turn greatly
effect the total lifetime economy.
Flexibility
Environment
Sustainable design and production
methods are applied in Steerprop Azimuth
Propulsors. The preservation of the marine
environment is a matter of great importance for
Steerprop Ltd. The Steerprop Azimuth Propulsors
are equipped with the latest and most efficient
seal technology. The use of Steerprop CRP
Contra-Rotating Propeller technology
will further improve efficiency by
approximately 20%, thus reducing fuel
consumption and emissions.
One of the benefits of a

small organization is flexibility.
Flexibility has always been the
basic philosophy behind Steerprop
Azimuth Propulsors. As an adaptable,
customer satisfaction driven
company, Steerprop Ltd. is able
to provide owners and operators
with exactly the products and
services they require.

Arctic
In the harsh environment of the Arctic dependability is critical. Fail-safes are
designed into Steerprop ARC Azimuth Propulsors on several levels. With these
fail-safes and a robust mechanical transmission, Steerprop products offer inherent reliability.
Azimuth propulsors are a tool second to none in ice management operations.
The ability to control vectored thrust (ie, slipstream) in full 360 degrees allows
the ship to not only open and widen channels, but also to blow ice ridges and
free arctic offshore installation from ice pressure. Focusing the slipstream with
a nozzle further enhances the ice management abilities of the azimuth propulsor. Ice milling is also an option with a ship equipped with azimuth propulsors.
Offshore
Steerprop Ltd. customizes each propulsor to the individual application to ensure as efficient and economical operation as possible. This ability for seamless customization stems from the inherent flexibility designed into Steerprop
Azimuth Propulsor solutions. Steerprop products are designed to be adaptable into any known control (ie, autopilot or dynamic position) system.
When a strong bollard pull is required, a ducted propulsor is the optimal solution. Steerprop recommends the HJ3-type high performance nozzle. It offers
increased bollard pull and improved high-speed efficiency in comparison to
the traditional 19A-type nozzle or even a conventional open propeller.
When free running efficiency is crucial, the high-efficiency Steerprop CRP solution is recommended.
Cruise & Cargo

In an increasingly eco-conscious and competitive market, green values and
efficiency are becoming more important than ever. The Steerprop CRP technology has been designed for high speed applications where efficiency and
reliability are critical.
The contra rotating propeller technology with a forward facing pulling propeller
and underwater parts designed for minimum hydrodynamic drag offer unsurpassed propulsive efficiency. With built-in fail-safes designed with principles
of sequential strength offer excellent reliability. With high reliability and higher
efficiency, Steerprop Azimuth Propulsors offer excellent lifetime economy.
