Dutch heavylift specialist Huisman is celebrating its 100th Chinese-built crane which will equip a Jumbo-owned ship.
The 1,500-mt heavy lift mast crane will be installed on the 14,000-dwt Fairmaster (built 2015).
It was built at Huisman’s facility in China’s Zhangzhou. The 100 cranes have a total lifting capacity of 65,000 mt.
Joop Roodenburg, CTO of Huisman, said: “The fact that the 100th crane is the fourth heavy lift mast crane constructed for our client Jumbo at Huisman China confirms both the success of our Chinese production facility and our Mast Crane design of which the first was constructed by Huisman in 1983.
“We are grateful for the trust of our long lasting clients who made a firm contribution to the development of our Chinese facility to what it is now.”
