WorldCargo News started a series of mobile harbour crane (MHC) market surveys – and MHC railmounted and pontoon-mounted derivatives – in January 2003 and up to and including January 2009 they enjoyed the support of the leading OEMs, who supplied their annual references.

Terex Port Solutions is moving towards a common brand and will consolidate the sales and service offer under Steve Filipov.

The mobile harbour crane (MHC) is already the most flexible quayside crane concept and new applications are still being developed.

As briefly reported in last month’s WorldCargo News, Demag Cranes recently commissioned its first Gottwald Generation 5 rail portal harbour crane (HSK) in Latin America. The G HSK 4316 B is used to handle fertilisers and construction material for Fospar SA (Fertilizantes Fosfatados do Paraná) in the Brazilian Port of Paranaguá. Fospar is a new customer of Demag Cranes.

Recent performance levels have been satisfactory, but the market remains challenging and continuing economic uncertainty makes forecasting difficult

A new Gottwald HMK 170 E mobile harbour crane will start commercial operations this spring at the Port of Hamilton, Bermuda. The crane, which will be operated by Stevedoring Services Ltd, is the first Gottwald to be supplied to Bermuda.
