Marine Deck Cranes
Marine deck cranes are available for both rental and purchase, providing a flexible and cost-effective solution for a wide range of offshore lifting requirements. Designed specifically for back-deck inboard operations, these cranes are ideal for handling routine but essential tasks such as moving buoyancy aids, assisting with cable lay scopes, and supporting general deck logistics.
By taking on these secondary lifting duties, marine deck cranes help optimise vessel efficiency by keeping the main vessel crane free for larger or more complex operations, as well as enabling simultaneous operations (SIMOPS) to be carried out safely and effectively. Built for reliability in demanding marine environments.
