Cargotec has received an order for two of its MacGregor windlass-handling manipulator systems and two large offshore knuckle-jib cranes to DOF ASA. The anchor-handling equipment is scheduled
for delivery in 2011 and has been specified for two anchor-handling tug supply (AHTS) vessels on order for international ship-owning conglomerate, DOF ASA. Te AHTS vessels are based on an STX AH12 design and will be built by STX Brazil Offshore for operations in the Brazilian market. Cargotec’s sales director for offshore load
