The progress of the largest floating crane
With a 160-meter-long A-frame and an impressive lifting capacity of 5,000 tons, this floating crane is designed to redefine the standards of heavy lifting offshore. Furthermore, its ability to lift loads up to 120 meters above the water will be an important aspect for handling larger and more complex structures on offshore projects.
The crane is scheduled for delivery in 2026, and upon arrival at Drydocks World, it will boost the company’s ability to complete megaprojects in the shipbuilding, conversion, and offshore energy industries.
Drydocks’ commitment to innovation continues with this project, which is intended to strengthen its infrastructure and enhance operational capabilities in the coming years. This achievement is a testament to the company’s technical prowess and its dedication to driving the industry to new frontiers.
