The RL series – compact and versatile
On both fixed and floating offshore installations, especially in the wind power industry and in the oil and gas sector, RL cranes are mainly used for maintenance and supply work.
The particularly weight-optimised and compact design is the characteristic feature of the RL series. The small tail radius as well as the low construction height make the ram luffing crane an ideal application for small and unmanned platforms or vessels. Depending on the model, lifting capacities of up to 100 tonnes are possible.

Customer voice
"For platform operators, weight and space requirements for equipment are key cost elements. Any reduction ensures savings, which is why Liebherr's RL crane is the number one choice. It is lightweight, reliable and flexible in terms of positioning. In addition, our crane operators are delighted with the ease of maintenance and sensitive crane control."
Steve Haro, Head of Operations, Navtech Marine Services
The RL series in a nutshell
Design
Based on our customers feedback, we optimised the RL to become the most compact maintenance crane. This results in a reduced construction height and a small tail radius. The elimination of a machinery house allows the crane to operate in confined space conditions and environments. Additionally, the crane can be ex-certified (ATEX and IECEx).

EXpressure
A special feature of the new RL crane series is the innovative cabinet inside the slewing column. The technology behind this innovation is called "EXpressure", the world's first explosion-proof Ex d cabinet that safely releases explosion pressure. It has been developed by our partner R. Stahl AG.
