The BOS series – Unmatched quality in offshore cranes

Our Liebherr BOS offshore crane series stands out for its exceptional quality, flexible deployment, and compact, function-oriented design. Featuring Liebherr’s in-house Litronic crane control system, the BOS is a top choice among operators and a global leader in the offshore crane market. This state-of-the-art slewing bearing crane with a wire luffing mechanism offers a versatile drive train, available in all-electric, electro-hydraulic, or diesel-hydraulic configurations.

The BOS 2600 in a nutshell

Designed for applications requiring high lifting capacities at medium or long outreach, the BOS is the ideal choice. Take a look at the BOS 2600 together with our colleague on the test stand in Rostock.

Offshore crane performance put to the test

Before our cranes are put into action, they go to the ultimate test: a full-scale performance check. Project manager Raik Wichmann gives a behind-the scenes look at the cranes’ key features, while the team puts them through their paces with precision and power.

Available for the BOS series:
LiMain

LiMain is a fully digital, remote and semi-automatic maintenance system. It increases crane availability and saves resources for the platform, rig or vessel operator.

Our BOS giants

Meet our BOS giants, the BOS 35000 and BOS 45000, engineered to tackle the most demanding heavy-duty applications. With their impressive lifting capacities and exceptional outreach, these cranes are perfect for large-scale offshore projects, ensuring efficiency, reliability, and flexibility. Whether you're installing offshore wind parks or handling massive components for oil and gas platforms, our BOS giants are ready to elevate your operations to new heights.

Areas of application

Offshore wind

Offshore wind is one of the fundamental pillars of our future energy production. Liebherr's offshore cranes play a “load-bearing” role in the construction, maintenance and repair as well as the possible repowering or later dismantling of foundations, wind turbines, transformer and converter stations.

Oil and gas

Liebherr offshore cranes are deployed for the assembly, repair and supply of oil and gas extraction systems. The performance capacity, size and also the way the cranes are set-up varies according to the respective requirements profile.

Heavy duty load

Heavy duty deployment, such as operations involving the erection of wind parks or the assembly of oil rigs, require the highest level of precision and safety. Liebherr offshore cranes are designed especially for these challenging tasks.

Decommissioning

As the offshore industry phases out aging infrastructure, a growing need emerges for safe, efficient decommissioning of abandoned platforms and equipment. Offshore cranes like the BOS-series are critical enablers in this process, handling heavy lifts and complex removals with precision. BOS cranes combining exceptional load capacity, advanced safety features, and reliable operation in harsh marine environments, ensuring smooth, cost-effective projects.

Crane replacements

In focusing on innovative solutions while tackling the challenges of upgrading an outdated crane installation, Liebherr and its equipment stand out with precision and efficiency. The BOS series from Liebherr has all these essential characteristics when it comes to replacing outdated offshore systems.
