MacGregor, part of Cargotec, has received an order to fit out 10 x 84,500dwt multipurpose vessels being built in Asia with general cargo cranes.
The order, valued at more than €25 million, was booked into Cargotec’s 2023 third quarter orders received. The cranes are scheduled to be delivered between the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2026.
The order includes a total of 40 cranes with a lifting capacity of 75tonnes. All of the cranes are connected to the latest worldwide service support and equipped with an active safety system for the highest possible secure operation, according to MacGregor.
The company adds that it was selected as the supplier of these general cargo cranes thanks to its well-known design capabilities and long-term good co-operation with the customer.
“I’m very proud of the confidence that the shipyard has shown in choosing us to supply cranes for this important project. We look forward to providing our customer with our high-class equipment and services,” says Magnus Sjöberg, Macgregor’s senior vice president, Merchant Solutions.
