About Günther Wehrenberg GmbH
Günther Wehrenberg GmbH is a Hamburg company based in Hamburg-Finkenwerder that has been active since 1970 in the field of repair, maintenance and overhaul of marine engines and stationary diesel engines. The business specialises in 4-stroke engines with power outputs from 20 kW to 12.500 kW and carries out work and assembly on cargo ships and salvage tugs under its own direction and responsibility. The 400 sqm workshop hall contains lathes and machine tools for machining cylinder heads, pistons and cylinder liners. In addition to stationary work, mobile on-site repairs are offered, including facing of cylinder head sealing surfaces, honing of cylinder liners in installed condition and digital crankshaft deflection measurements. Component overhauls follow the manufacturer's specifications; overhauled spare parts are supplied via the company's own spare parts shop. Deployment locations span the continents of Europe, Asia, Africa and America, and according to the website also Australia.
