Mammoet, a global service provider specializing in engineered heavy lifting and transport, has the highest ever concentration of its high strength cranes currently working in Dubai, UAE.

Executing various projects over the years, including the Dubai metro line and Dubai Mall, Mammoet cranes have been part of the city’s skyline for some time, a company statement said.

Currently there are four of Mammoet’s super heavy lift cranes performing various complex lift jobs in Dubai. The cranes’ lifting capacities range from a 600-tonne crawler crane to the mega-sized 5000-tonne ring crane.

This is the only time in the history of Mammoet in Dubai where so many heavy lift cranes have been concentrated in the country, all operating at the same time, the statement said.

Mammoet is working on projects like the construction of the presidential suite for the Viceroy Resort at Palm Jumeirah Island. For this operation Mammoet used a CC8800, 1600-tonne crane, with a LR1600, 600-tonne crane, to perform a tandem lift.

Mammoet is also working on the Habtoor City project and other mega-structure projects in Dubai. One of these projects requires both the mega-lifting PTC 200 ring crane, which can lift up to 5000 tonnes and the LR13000 crawler crane, with a capacity of 3000 tonnes. – TradeArabia News Service
