Kongsberg Maritime business and technology expansion

Overview

Kongsberg Maritime has expanded its technological footprint through new service contracts and strategic acquisitions.

In late August 2026, the company secured two major contracts for offshore energy operations. One agreement involves supplying integrated equipment for a multi-purpose deepwater installation and construction vessel for Solstad Offshore and SBM Offshore. A second contract involves delivering mooring and deck machinery for a Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel in Asia.

Following these contract wins, Kongsberg finalized the acquisition of Sonatech, a California-based specialist in underwater acoustics. This acquisition is intended to strengthen Kongsberg’s presence in the United States and its role as a technology provider for the US Navy, specifically enhancing capabilities in maritime domain awareness, mine countermeasures, and the protection of undersea infrastructure.
