The Bergen KVM engines were robust medium-speed diesel engines developed for reliable power generation and marine propulsion. The KVM engines were particularly recognised for their mechanical simplicity and ease of maintenance. It’s straightforward layout allowed for overhauls to be carried out with relative ease, even in demanding shipboard environments. The KVM engines were primarily used as propulsion engines on heavy-duty vessels such as trawlers, offshore supply ships and coastal cargo carriers. The KVM engines could produce power between 1,470 kW and 1,960 kW at operating speeds in the range of 625 to 825 rpm. The KVM engines were later upgraded to KVMB. 

Though newer Bergen engine series have replaced the KVM engines, they still remain in operation on some vessels around the world, with service and parts maintenance provided by OEMs, specialists and proven engine parts suppliers like Alang Maritime.
