MAN Energy Solutions SE’s French subsidiary employs circa 630 people across the production site and head office of Saint-Nazaire and its Puteaux site. MAN Energy Solutions France produces engines for Marine, Military Marine, Offshore, Power Plant and Nuclear Power Plant applications.
MAN ES designed in several access covers on their Type 48/ 60 engines for maintenance, in locations such as the crankshaft bearings, connecting rods and counter balance weights.
