Monopiles in the Baltic Sea
In the port of Rostock, the first monopiles for the offshore wind farm "Kriegers Flak", which is currently under construction, were loaded. The wind farm, located south of the Danish coast, will supply up to 600,000 households with electricity in the future and will thus become Denmark's largest offshore wind farm.
The loading of the monopile foundation piles will be handled by Liebherr's heavy-duty gantry crane type TCC 78000, inaugurated in 2019. The manufacturer of the monopiles is the offshore wind specialist EEW Special Pipe Constructions GmbH, also based in Rostock, Germany.

Partnership enlarged
When there is a demand for outstanding turnover with highest reliability, the Liebherr FCC series is the perfect choice. Many years of experience gathered from the operation of the FCC series have been invested into the development of the new FCC 360. This statement is best supported by customers, who replace and even expand their Liebherr crane portfolio after almost two decades of operation – as our great Indonesian partner Bayan Group did.
For unloading coal barges at the Balikpapan Coal Terminal, three FCC 300 were purchased to replace the existing FCC 300, installed in 2003. To even extend the turnover capacity, two new FCC 360 with an average turnover of approx. 1000 t/h were also delivered to Balikpapan in Indonesia. Get to know more about the Liebherr FCC 360.

Floating in the Harbor of New York
At the New York Harbor Sims Metal Management uses a Liebherr mobile harbour crane type LHM 600 to load scrap and unload salt. The crane is placed on a floating barge and can be moved to another terminal of the port if required.
With a maximum lifting capacity of 75 tonnes in 4-rope grab operation, the crane is the strongest floating mobile harbour crane on a barge in the U.S. in 4-rope grab capacity.

Fuel costs matter
The Liebherr reachstacker offers enormous savings potential in terms of diesel consumption due to its innovative hydrostatic drive system and the resulting smaller engine size. In addition, the hydrostatic drive also eliminates the need for heavy-weight and maintenance-intensive components, like the torque converter, driving axle, gearbox and differential.
