The cranes for the seven drill ships include two 85 tonne capacity DKF2000 pedestal knuckle boom and two 63 tonne capacity DKW2000 pedestal wire luffing cranes. All seven drill ships will be built at Sembcorp Marine’s new Brazilian shipyard Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz. The ships will be used to discover the oil and gas in the giant offshore pre-salt fields of the Santos Basin, capable of operating at water depths of 10,000 feet (3.05 km) and drilling at depths of 40,000 feet (12.2 km).

Palfinger acquired the Norwegian crane supplier in November 2012 to play a leading role in the growth of Palfinger Marine’s Offshore Cranes.
