Production Photos
The crane is certified by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), following the ABS guide for certification of lifting appliances (June 2021 version). It meets the requirements of the CRC(OC-PL) notation from the ABS of the vessel, ensuring the highest standards of safety and performance.
The customer has received this crane and successfully installed it on the deck of a tanker vessel. You may have noticed that the coating color is changing from white to yellow.
Interestingly, this modification was initiated by the customer themselves. After reconsideration and application scenario analysis, the yellow crane is certainly safer. We fully understood their concerns and provided effective suggestions to assist the customer in completing this update.
This delivery underscores OUCO’s commitment to providing customized, high-quality, and safe lifting solutions for our clients in the offshore industry.
We look forward to seeing this crane in action, supporting the critical operations of oil tankers in Nigeria.
