Finland-based MacGregor has won new crane orders from South Korean shipyard Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME).
MacGregor received the order for 28 hose handling and provision cranes which will be delivered from 2010 to 2012. They are destined for five VLCCs and two 147,000DWT LNG carriers ordered by shipowners from Greece and Brunei.
Each of the VLCCs will be fitted with two 20-tonne capacity hose-handling cranes, one 12.5-tonne capacity and one three-tonne capacity provisions crane. The two hose-handling and two provisions cranes for the LNG tankers will each have a lifting capacity of five tonnes.
