Taiwan Power orders coal unloaders
19 Apr 2008
Two Siwertell screw unloaders, each designed to discharge coal at 2,200t/h, have been ordered from the MacGregor Group for the Ta-Lin Power Station in Taiwan. Favoured over traditional bucket chain and wheel constructions, the ships that they will unload will be in the range of 80,000 dwt to 150,000 dwt.

The unloaders’ steel structures will be manufactured inside the country with the remaining sections delivered from Sweden, ready to start operation in 2009.
