HLC series - Heavy Lift Cranes
Liebherr Heavy Lift Cranes (HLC) are specially designed for the installation of offshore wind turbine foundations and for the assembly and dismantling of offshore installations in the oil and gas industry. Depending on the customer's ship and application concept, Liebherr offers the best solution for worldwide offshore use with a wide range of cranes in the HLC series.
The HLC series benefits from Liebherr's high level of vertical integration. Numerous in-house components ensure smooth operation of these offshore cranes. Based on over 40 years of experience and constantly proven worldwide under the most demanding operating conditions, these components are characterised by the highest quality and long service life.
An enhancement for the energy transition
Offshore wind farms are being built more and more frequently to enable sustainable energy production. At the same time, ageing offshore oil and gas platforms are being dismantled. The HLC heavy duty crane series has been developed for both applications.
For the decommissioning of offshore oil and gas installations, there is a focus on dismantling as large parts as possible in order to reduce the need for flame-cutting works offshore as well as the overall number of necessary transport round-trips. With lifting capacities up to 5,000 tonnes and corresponding outreaches Liebherr's HLC series perfectly fits into that set of requirements.

Whenever the customer needs the support of our remote technical advisors or our service engineers on the ground, they will be there.
