Port of Hartlepool has taken delivery of a new Konecranes Gottwald ESP.6 mobile harbour crane, following assembly and testing in Antwerp, in a move set to strengthen the port’s cargo handling capabilities.
The 390-tonne crane offers a maximum lift capacity of 125 tonnes and a working radius of up to 49 metres, adding significant lifting capability to the port’s existing equipment base.
The new unit joins the Sennebogen 875M materials handler already operating at Port of Hartlepool, as part of the port’s continued investment programme aimed at ensuring the infrastructure, equipment and flexibility needed to meet evolving customer requirements and support future growth.
