Huisman Gets Crane Supply Order for Siem's Subsea Newbuilds

Huisman has secured a contract from Siem Industries to supply four knuckle boom cranes for two offshore subsea construction vessels under construction at Fujian Mawei Shipbuilding in China, with deliveries of the vessels scheduled for 2029 and 2030.

The contract covers two 400-tonne knuckle boom cranes with below-deck winches and two 50-tonne auxiliary cranes with deepwater capabilities, Huisman announced on October 29.

The cranes will be manufactured at Huisman's production facility in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province, China, while the vessels are being built at Fujian Mawei Shipbuilding in Fuzhou.

The 400-tonne cranes will feature full-load active heave compensation (AHC), with hook travel of up to 3,000 meters and the ability to lift large objects at full load with the knuckle extended.
