We have recently built what is believed to be one of the world’s largest mono-spiral motorised cable reels. With a drum diameter of 9.2m, and weighing in at 10,000kg, it is the largest drum manufactured by Cavotec to date.
Next week, we will be exhibiting at one of the world's largest offshore trade shows: OTC Houston, where we will be demonstrating how our innovative technologies are enabling the offshore energy sector function safely, cleanly and efficiently.
Following news of a major order for shore power equipment at Port of Los Angeles last week, today we can announce another substantial ports project for Cavotec; this time for motorised cable reel technologies for installation on ship-to-shore (STS) cranes and rail-mounted gantry (RMG) cranes at DP World’s new container terminal at Jebel Ali Port in the United Arab Emirates.
Cavotec's radio remote control (RRC) experts - Cavotec Micro-control - recently took part in a highly successful ONS2012, one of the offshore energy industry's largest exhibitions. Held in Stravanger, Norway, between August 28 and 30, the event attracted some 50,000 attendees. Here's a brief overview of Cavotec's presence at the show.
Cavotec has won a contract to electrify eight rubber tyred gantry (RTG) cranes at DP World's Jebel Ali port in Dubai; a move that will realise significant reductions in energy costs and emissions.
