Huisman has been awarded a contract with VARD for the delivery of a full electric 250mt Hybrid Boom Subsea Crane, and a 100mt Knuckle Boom Crane destined for integration into Toyo Construction Co. latest cable-lay and construction vessel.
Huisman’s Hybrid Boom Crane stands out for its cutting-edge features, including a fully electric traction and storage winch design that ensures secure storage of large diameter subsea wire rope.
Equipped with both passive and active heave compensation systems, this crane guarantees superior workability offshore. Designed to meet the specific requirements and preferences of Toyo Construction Co., the crane will undergo certification according to ClassNK regulations.
The 250mt Hybrid Boom Crane is a proven subsea crane concept that combines the high lifting height of a conventional lattice-type boom crane with the operational advantages of a Knuckle Boom Crane.
The 100mt Knuckle Boom Crane, part of Huisman’s recently launched Subsea Crane range for offshore construction vessels, is a compact yet powerful subsea-rated crane. Featuring active heave compensation, this crane is designed to assist in subsea work and handle cargo efficiently across the deck.
Both cranes will be manufactured at Huisman’s state-of-the-art production facility in Zhangzhou, China.
