Italian specialist in mobile harbour and offshore crane manufacturing has secured new orders and made deliveries worldwide, including Saudi Aramco.
Mobile harbour and offshore crane manufacturing specialist Italgru, part of the privately owned Bonfanti group based in Bergamo, Italy, has reported a raft of new orders, work-in-progress, and deliveries in recent months.
An undisclosed customer has ordered three model IMHC mobile harbour cranes with electric drives (“Green Solution”).
This follows the recent delivery of four cranes, in this case all model IMHC 2120 units, to the Indian port market. The country has become a key export market for Italgru in recent years.
Elsewhere, at the end of last year, an IMHC 2120 was also delivered to Ecologica (Gruppo Miccolis) in the port of Taranto.
An IMHC 2120 has also recently been commissioned in the Channel port of Dieppe.
At the end of February, final commissioning tests were carried out at the plant in Ambivere (Bergamo) on the last of four pedestal offshore cranes for McDermott and its ultimate customer Saudi Aramco.
The model TS 1800 EH crane (22t-50m onboard/22t-40m offboard) has now been disassembled, packaged, and shipped to Jebel Ali, for reassembly and load-out for installation on an auxiliary platform in the Margan International Package project.
It is Italgru’s 25th offshore crane delivery for Saudi Aramco in the past six years.
A further two cranes will be built for the same customer between March and September this year.
