MacGregor, part of Cargotec, has received a large order from Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industry Co. Ltd (ZPMC). The contract is for four offshore cranes, including a 400 t SWL active heave-compensated crane capable of deploying 3000 m of wire rope.

All four cranes will be fitted to a new 145 m dive support vessel (DSV) under construction at the yard for UK-based operator Sealion Shipping. Delivery of the cranes to the Chinese shipyard is scheduled during 3Q16.
