Rickmers orders six Liebherrs
13 August 2013
German shipping company Rickmers has ordered six Liebherr heavy lift ship cranes.
The order includes four type CBB 4700 heavy lift ship cranes, each with a lifting capacity of 450 tonnes, and two type CBB 3450 heavy lift ship cranes, each with a lifting capacity of 120 tonnes.
The cranes are due to be installed on two ships in the Hudong-Zhonghua Shipyard in Shanghai, China. They have a low total weight and a low centre of gravity for increased ship stability, a company spokesperson said.
Each crane is being built by Liebherr-MCCtec Rostock in Germany and will be delivered in 2014.
