Goltens Worldwide and IPCO Power and have signed a strategic collaboration agreement to jointly support shipowners in achieving more efficient and sustainable fuel operations.
The partnership combines IPCO Power’s proven fuel homogenization technology with Goltens’ extensive global engineering and service capabilities, offering shipowners a fully integrated solution – from 3D scanning and technical design to installation, commissioning and long-term lifecycle support.
IPCO Power Managing Director Bart Sluimer said: “More and more often, clients are asking for complete packages, not just equipment. Thanks to our partnership with Goltens, we can now deliver full-scope projects worldwide – from technical design to commissioning – that can fully unburden the customer.”
SUPERCHARGING FUEL EFFICIENCY
At the heart of IPCO Power’s offering is a robust and field-proven rotor-stator homogenizer, which can reduce fuel droplet sizes to below 3 microns for enhanced fuel performance. This core technology supports a wide range of applications, enabling shipowners to achieve tangible benefits including:
- Up to 80% sludge reduction before the separator
- Up to 2.5% fuel savings
Improved fuel stability during storage
Onboard blending of different fuel types, including biofuels
Water-in-fuel emulsification for emission reduction
By combining these capabilities with Goltens’ expertise in retrofits and turnkey project execution, the collaboration addresses increasing demand for practical, scalable solutions that deliver efficiency and compliance – especially for existing vessels seeking efficiency gains without major engine modifications.
“This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to helping shipowners navigate the twin challenges of efficiency and decarbonization,” said Goltens Worldwide CEO Sandeep Seth. “By combining IPCO’s proven homogenization technology with Goltens’ global execution capabilities, we are delivering solutions that reduce costs, improve fuel flexibility and support the transition to cleaner operations.”
