Norway bans sale of Rolls-Royce subsidiary to Russian group

The Norwegian government has vetoed the sale, by UK-based global major industrial technology group Rolls-Royce, of its Norwegian subsidiary company Bergen Engines to Russian locomotive and railway equipment manufacturing and services company TMH Group. Rolls-Royce Bergen produces medium speed diesel and gas engines ranging from 1 400 kWe to 11 830 kWe. It can also provide integrated modular power plant solutions, turnkey installation partnerships, power plant design and project management services, plant operations experience and long-term service agreements, and export finance. Rolls-Royce Bergen also produces engines for marine applications, but these are exclusively distributed and sold by another Norwegian company, Kongsberg Maritime. This enterprise is itself a division of Norway’s Kongsberg technology group. (Another division of which is Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, which is Norway’s number one defence and aerospace company.)
