Liebherr LG 1750 Enhances Capacity For Onshore Wind Projects In The UK And Ireland READ YOUR FREE COPY HERE: https://moveitmagazine.com/2023/10/05/liebherr-lg-1750-enhances-capacity-for-onshore-wind-projects-in-the-uk-and-ireland/ Global Wind Projects, an UK provider of crane and installation services for wind turbines, has collaborated with its sister company, Global Crane Services, to reinforce their shared crane fleet by adding a Liebherr LG 1750. This 750-tonne lattice boom mobile crane, known for combining crawler crane performance with all-terrain mobility, is now part of an impressive fleet alongside an LG 1750 and an LR 1750 crawler crane, along with over 60 mobile cranes featuring lifting capacities ranging from 25 to 750 tonnes. The new addition is expected to cater to the surging demand from the wind industry across the UK and Ireland. While Global Wind Projects will primarily deploy the new LG 1750 for onshore wind power projects, Global Crane Services will utilize it for heavy-duty tasks in ports, infrastructure projects, and the petrochemical sector throughout the UK and Ireland. Both entities are subsidiaries of Global Port Services, an integral part of the Inverness and Aberdeen-based Global Energy Group, specializing in services for the energy sector. Ryan Burke, General Manager at Global Wind Projects, underscores the significance of this crane fleet expansion: “The acquisition of the new Liebherr LG 1750 effectively doubles our capacity to meet the specific demands of wind projects. This investment holds considerable importance for our company. The LG 1750 was promptly deployed to Ireland, where it efficiently installed five onshore wind turbines at ABO Wind Ireland’s Sheskin wind farm in County Mayo. Subsequently, it proceeded to County Offaly to install 29 onshore turbines at the Yellow River wind farm. With two LG 1750s at our disposal, we are well-equipped to meet the surging demand for our onshore wind crane and erection services, supporting the continued growth of Global Wind Projects.” Lyle Sibbald, Liebherr sales manager, expresses their satisfaction in supplying the LG 1750 for Global Wind Projects’ expansion, emphasizing its versatility and efficiency as a heavy lift crane. The LG 1750 combines the performance of a 750-tonne crawler crane with the mobility of a high-speed mobile crane, making it ideal for swift erection work in wind power projects, industrial construction, or infrastructure endeavors. #Liebherr #LG1750 #Cranes #MoveItMagazine

Mammoet Invests In 6,000t Ring Crane For Energy Markets READ YOUR FREE COPY HERE: https://moveitmagazine.com/2023/04/25/mammoet-invests-in-6000t-ring-crane/ Mammoet, a heavy lifting and transport company, is expanding its capacity with a new 6,000-ton ring crane to meet the growing demands of the energy market. The first components of the crane will soon be delivered to Mammoet’s engineering center in the Netherlands, with the crane expected to be ready for its first project in 2024. This crane will be the world’s highest capacity land-based crane and will be fully operated using electric power, making it a sustainable option for clients. The introduction of the SK6000, as the new crane is named, will enable customers to construct heavier and larger components than ever before, as it offers unrivaled outreach, hook height, and lifting capacity. The crane’s carbon-free lifting solution will set a new standard in worldwide heavy lifting capacity, providing a unique and sustainable option that others cannot match. The SK6000 shares the same engineering DNA as its predecessor, the SK350, which has been successfully employed on project sites around the world for many years. By employing similar design principles and lifting techniques, the SK6000 provides customers with continuity and peace of mind. The SK6000 is containerized, allowing for swift mobilization and on-site assembly, providing ultra-heavy lift capacity wherever it is needed. It has been designed with next-generation offshore wind farms in mind and will serve all global energy markets where additional lifting capacity is needed, both onshore and at sea. The crane will play a crucial role in the offshore wind industry, enabling the integration of higher and bigger turbines, as well as launching heavier foundations. In the conventional energy sector, the SK6000 will reduce integration time for offshore and floating production projects by building even larger topside modules. On land, it will help refineries reduce downtime by removing and installing larger components with minimum disruption. #Mammoet #SK6000 #ringcrane #MoveItMagazine

SCHMIDBAUER OPTS FOR LIEBHERR READ YOUR FREE COPY HERE: https://moveitmagazine.com/2022/11/24/schmidbauer-opts-for-liebherr/ With the aim to modernise its fleet of mobile cranes with lifting capacities from 50 to 110 tonnes, Schmidbauer has opted for four mobile cranes from Liebherr. The order also includes two crawler cranes which are intended to support the energy transition. “Our group of companies is actively combating climate change. We have ordered the two new LR 1800-1.0 and LR 11350 crawler cranes for the production of renewable energy,” says Werner Schmidbauer, explaining the investment in the two large cranes. The LR 1800-1.0 will be used, among other things, for the assembly of onshore wind turbines; the LR 11350 is planned primarily for port handling of large components for the Fos-Sur-Mer offshore wind farm in the Marseille area. #Liebherr #CrawlerCranes #LR #Schmidbauer #MoveItMagazine

22ND NOVEMBER 2022 GE RENEWABLE SELECTS MAMMOET UK READ YOUR FREE COPY HERE: https://moveitmagazine.com/2022/11/22/ge-renewable-selects-mammoet-uk/ Teesside-based Mammoet UK has been selected by GE Renewable Energy to supply onshore heavy lifting and transport for the staging and assembly of turbine components for the Dogger Bank Wind Farm. Dogger Bank Wind Farm is a joint venture between SSE Renewables, Equinor and Vårgrønn. Mammoet will employ multiple lifting and transport crews for simultaneous operations to support with the loading of equipment and tower assembly in the marshalling harbor, a key piece in constructing the project. The team will utilize cranes and self-propelled modular transporter (SPMT) axles at Able Seaton Port, the Dogger Bank Wind Farm marshalling harbor. GE will start preparing the marshalling harbor and receiving components at the end of 2022. Nathan Fahey, GE Project Director for the Dogger Bank Wind Farm, said, “We are delighted to announce that we have selected Mammoet UK as our cranes and logistics supplier for the Dogger Bank Wind Farm. The cranes and associated equipment the company will provide and operate for us will be essential to the smooth operation of our marshalling harbor on Teesside, where 277 sets of blades, nacelles and towers of our Haliade-X wind turbines will be erected and transit over the course of the project. We believe Mammoet has the right expertise and equipment to be an excellent partner for us.” Darren Adams, Mammoet’s Group Commercial Officer, said, “Mammoet is delighted to work in close partnership with GE to help build the world’s largest offshore wind farm. The project is a large step towards a net-zero future, delivering a boost for the local economy and wider 2030 and 2050 emissions targets. By utilizing Mammoet’s strong presence in the UK, headquartered from Teesside, backed up by its network of international engineering hubs, we will enable the delivery of clean, cost-efficient energy to around six million homes.” Dogger Bank Wind Farm is located over 130 km off the north-east coast of England and each phase will be able to produce 6TWh of renewable electricity, totaling 18TWh annually, when complete in 2026 – equivalent to powering approximately the equivalent of six million UK homes each year or around 5% of the UK’s electricity demand. Due to its size and scale, the site is being built in three consecutive phases: Dogger Bank A, Dogger Bank B and Dogger Bank C. “This contract represents not just a win for Mammoet and renewable energy investment but for the people of Teesside,” said UK Managing Director, Mark Sadler. “Securing the project means even greater potential investment and business growth that will expand our existing pool of highly skilled labor with renewables expertise in the region. We have a great opportunity to support GE Renewables and other businesses building the UK’s fast-growing offshore wind energy market.” 2nd photo: Mammoet UK’s headquarter in Thornaby, Teesside. 3rd photo: Mammoet UK Managing Director, Mark Sadler. #Mammoet #UK #Teeside #GE #RenewableEnergy #DoggerBank #WindFarm #MoveItMagazine
