Carrier Marine & Offshore Systems

Carrier, part of UTC Building & Industrial Systems, offers a complete range of products for marine refrigeration and air conditioning applications, serving the commercial shipping, cruise and offshore industries.

Building on a legacy of innovation

Carrier’s roots date back more than 110 years, to Willis Carrier’s invention of modern air conditioning. Building on his legacy, the company brought the innovation to the cruise industry in 1931, when it equipped the M.V. Victoria with air conditioning, making it the first cruise ship to use the technology to enhance passenger comfort.

Today, Carrier remains a global leader in maritime air conditioning and refrigeration technology, with products found aboard cruise ships, commercial vessels and offshore rigs throughout the world’s oceans.

Custom-designed solutions for the world’s most demanding conditions

With an understanding of the space limitations, harsh climates and demanding work conditions found on offshore platforms, Carrier designs custom comfort cooling, process cooling and refrigeration solutions specifically for offshore applications.

Carrier Gemini™ 38A high-efficiency air-cooled condensing units offer optional materials, to meet your specific offshore project needs, including copper fin coils, epoxy coatings and stainless steel cabinets.

In your harsh environment, you want your coil to last. Carrier offers options for air-cooled condensing units and chillers that help extend coil life, including copper fin coils.

Carrier has solutions for hazardous locations. Many products can be customised for NEC, IECEx or ATEX requirements.

With environmentally-sound refrigerant, simple installation, superior efficiency and powerful controls, Carrier Aqua Series air-cooled chillers are ideal for replacement or new construction and offer special cabinet and coil materials.

AERO® 39M air handlers are fully customisable to meet any offshore need, with options such as SS316L panels, copper or coated coils, AgION™ antimicrobial coating and stainless steel quad-sloped drain pans.

Featured products for the offshore industry include Aqua Series air-cooled and water-cooled chillers, Gemini™ high-efficiency condensing units and AERO® 39M air handlers. Each product is packaged with features that provide high performance, energy efficiency and on-demand control.

Carrier Marine & Offshore Systems’ products are built tough, to perform safely and efficiently in the most demanding situations. Many of their products can be customised for hazardous locations, using NFPA 70 (NEC), or ATEX construction methods. The company also designs to meet specialised needs, including special coatings, copper coil construction and SS316L cabinet construction.
