RMG Middle East first for LCC
Saudi Arabia’s Jubail Commercial Port has awarded a six-strong rail mounted gantry crane contract to Liebherr Container Cranes.
Ordered by Sinopec E&C Middle East Co on behalf of Sabic, the cranes can span 14 containers wide and stack one over six containers high.
Speaking about the order, Liebherr Container Cranes’ sales and marketing manager Mr Gerry Bunyan said: “Traditionally Liebherr have supplied RMGs to intermodal and port terminals in Ireland, UK and in Europe. This new order represents Liebherr’s first supply of rail mounted gantry cranes to the Middle East, an area where Liebherr have for many years supplied ship to shore container cranes and rubber tyre gantry cranes.”
