Chinese company Cosco Shipping (Qidong) Offshore has ordered two more 250 tonne Huisman knuckle boom cranes.
The units will be installed on a Sea1 Offshore ST-245 vessel and are each capable of lifting 250 tonne with a maximum reach of 36 metres. They will feature an active heave compensated deepwater main hoist and auxiliary hoist and main hoist block catcher. The order follows a contract for two identical cranes placed at the end of last year.
