This, Mammoet says, reduces the size of the lifting area required by up to 45 percent. It has a central ballast design meaning that the crane only requires a section of ring or crane track when operating.
#DUAL CRANE LIFT REGULATIONS INSTALL#
Mammoet claims the SK10,000 is the world’s largest capacity land-based crane and it is designed to install large modules directly onto ship’s hulls. The SK6,000 follows the 10,000 tonne capacity SK10,000 which Mammoet announced in 2019. With our SK6,000, we can install flare towers of up to 1,500 tonnes and 150 metres in height in a single piece.” “Its low ground bearing capacity also means the crane can be used all over the world… As FPSO designs scale-up not only are module designs growing larger and heavier but flare towers are also becoming taller than ever before. “With the innovation of the SK6,000 crane, our customers can think bigger than ever before, pushing modules beyond the 4,000 tonne and even 5,000 tonne barriers,” claims Mammoet sales director Giovanni Alders. It is already booked in for its first project to start around the turn of the year. The crane is fully assembled and has been undergoing testing at the port in Ghent, Belgium. The crane can have a load up to 1,650 tonnes on the hook and target applications include the nuclear, logistics, construction, and offshore wind sectors. Responding to this demand, in November 2020 Belgian heavy lift multinational Sarens announced a new 100,000 tonne-metre super heavy lift ring mounted electric crane, the SGC-90 (see page 22 for our interview with Matthias Sarens, the man behind the SGC-90 project). Large industrial structures, for both onshore and offshore applications, are increasingly being pre-assembled, creating greater demand for heavy lift machines and innovative lifting techniques. With demand for top end heavy lift services and equipment increasing, multiple players are looking for a slice of the action. The market might be tough but rough terrain cranes are built to withstand harsh conditions.
