Kalmar has concluded an agreement with Eurogate Container Terminal Wilhelmshaven (CTW) to relocate and modify two ZPMC Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes.
The project is delivered as part of Kalmar’s Modernisation Services offering. This important service project is designed to extend the operational capability of the customer’s fleet. The large order was booked in Kalmar’s Q4 2025 order intake.
The complex project involves the preparation and execution of crane transport using a Heavy Lift Semi-Submersible Barge, alongside extensive mechanical and electrical modifications.
Kalmar will oversee the entire process, including commissioning and testing, to ensure full functionality upon delivery to the Wilhelmshaven terminal. The project is scheduled for completion by the end of Q2 2026.
By providing in-house engineering expertise for all crane upgrade-related activities, Kalmar reportedly supports customers in managing the lifecycle of their assets safely and efficiently.
Holger Bomm, Managing Director at Eurogate CTW, said: “Our decision to choose Kalmar was based on our long-standing relationship. Building on our experience from previous heightening projects, we knew Kalmar could deliver the right technical solution.
“We rely on their expertise to handle complex modifications, and we trust them to get the job done.”
