Offshore Vessel Cranes – Cranes for PSV, Wind and Construction Vessels

An offshore vessel crane lifts cargo to platforms and wind turbines and lowers equipment to the seabed while the ship moves in the waves. Marine Crane designs each offshore vessel crane in Türkiye for PSVs, construction vessels and wind farm service ships.

Offshore vessels lift cargo to platforms and turbines, deploy subsea equipment and transfer loads in waves. Marine Crane builds offshore knuckle boom cranes with active heave compensation in Türkiye for platform supply vessels, offshore construction vessels and wind farm service ships.

Offshore crane capabilities

SWL from about 1 t to 50 t, outreach up to 35 m

Active heave compensation for subsea lifts

Sea-state derating and load monitoring

Cabin or remote control

Engineering and simulation

Every crane is checked in a 3D operating simulation built from the design model before fabrication, so reach, clearances and the lift sequence can be reviewed with the owner.

Frequently asked questions

Do you supply heave-compensated cranes?

Yes, with active heave compensation (AHC) on the main winch.

What makes an offshore vessel crane different

Unlike a harbour crane, it must keep the load under control while the ship heaves, rolls and pitches. Active heave compensation, sea-state derating and dynamic factors in the load chart make this possible.

Knuckle boom designs are preferred, because the boom tip stays close to the deck and the crane folds into a compact position for transit.

Offshore vessel crane options

  • Active heave compensation (AHC) with motion reference unit input
  • Personnel lifting configuration
  • Operator cabin or remote control
  • Low-temperature and explosion-proof equipment
  • Emergency lowering and overload protection (AOPS/MOPS)

Offshore vessel crane engineering

We verify the booms, slewing ring and pedestal with finite element analysis. In addition, we review the lifting sequence in a 3D simulation. 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, offshore 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.
