Magnus Sjöberg, Senior Vice President, Merchant Solutions Division, MacGregor, said: ”We are excited about this order, which is a nice continuity for the Aloha Class series and for the good collaboration with SM Solution and Philly Shipyard.
“Philly Shipyard is a forward-thinking shipbuilding facility and we are committed to providing cutting-edge solutions and look forward to contributing our expertise to ensure their success.”
In February 2021, MacGregor signed a two-year OnWatch Scout Predict agreement with Load Line Marine SA to support operation of their fleet equipped with MacGregor merchant cranes.
In December 2022, MacGregor’s heavy-duty transloading crane with the type name “TEC”, which claims to improve efficiency and lower maintenance costs, was released.
