Integrated Power Systems

Power Generation & Distribution, Controls, Propulsion
How can we help you? That’s how we approach our integrated power systems work at Trident — with a solution-driven attitude and our customers’ needs in mind. For ship owners, shipyards and natural gas drilling companies seeking integrated power systems, Trident is the go-to resource worldwide.

In fact, our solutions are so effective, many of our customers won’t work with any other company for integrated power systems: Trident is their power systems integrator of choice.

Known for our superior work and level of service, we design, engineer, build, install and maintain integrated power systems for ships in the military, cruise, commercial and energy markets. We also provide similar services for land-based natural gas drilling companies. Our scope of service includes everything from engineering, documentation and software programming to custom console/cabinet design and assembly.

What sets us apart? Collaboration and experience. Our staff of engineers and technicians work closely with our customers to ensure the very best solution for your specific demands. We work in whatever capacity is best for you, with turnkey, EPC or EPIC options.

Trident IMAC System — for Smaller Vessels

For smaller vessels with dimension and weight constraints, we offer a proprietary integrated automation system — the Trident IMAC — which can work as either a separate monitoring and control system or part of a complete solution with switchboard, starters and propulsion systems. Vessels that benefit from this solution include ferries, patrol boats, rescue vessels and coast guard vessels.
