Tanker Cranes – Hose Handling and Provision Cranes for Tankers
A tanker crane lifts cargo and bunker hoses to the manifold and takes stores, spares and provisions on board. Marine Crane builds every tanker crane in Türkiye for oil, chemical, LPG and bunker tankers.
Tankers and bunker vessels need cranes that lift cargo and bunker hoses to the manifold safely and take stores on board. Marine Crane builds stiff boom hose cranes and provision cranes in Türkiye, with explosion-proof options for hazardous areas.
Crane types for tankers
Hose crane (stiff boom, SWL 1–50 t): hose strings to the manifold
Provision crane: stores, spares and supplies
Telescopic crane: where longer reach is needed
Frequently asked questions
Are your hose cranes suitable for hazardous areas?
Explosion-proof electrical equipment and suitable hydraulic power options can be specified for tanker decks.
Hose handling with a tanker crane
Hose strings are heavy and awkward. A tanker crane with a stiff boom and a hose saddle lifts the hose evenly, keeps it clear of the ship’s side and lowers it gently to the manifold flange.
We choose the outreach so that one crane covers both manifolds and the provision loading area from a single pedestal.
Tanker crane safety on deck
- Explosion-proof (Ex) electrical equipment for hazardous areas
- Hydraulic power from an electric power unit or the pump room
- Load-holding valves and a spring-applied winch brake
- Slewing and luffing limits that protect manifold equipment
Tanker crane approval
We supply foundation loads, drawings and the load chart for each crane. We design and test every crane to the rules of the vessel’s classification society, such as DNV, Lloyd’s Register or Türk Loydu. On request, the crane is delivered with class approval and a certificate from the classification society the customer chooses.
Service and spare parts
In addition, tanker operators need fast support. Therefore, we supply a spare parts list with every delivery and ship parts directly from İstanbul. For example, seal kits, hoses, sheaves and brake parts are standard stock items. Moreover, our engineers support commissioning and periodic inspections on board, so the crane stays ready for work.
