Doosan Heavy Industries Viet Nam (Doosan Vina) has shipped its first three ship-to-shore cargo container cranes to the Bharat Mumbai Container Terminals Private Limited (BMCTPL) of India.
The company said on Monday that these cranes are a part of a total of twelve ordered by BMCTPL that will be produced and shipped by Doosan Vina over the coming months from Dung Quat Economic Zone.
The three 1,400 tonnes, 84m high, 144m long, 26m wide cranes will be loaded and shipped from Doosan Vina’s purpose built port in the central province of Quang Ngai before being used at the Jawaharlal Nehru Port in Mumbai, India.
CEO and general director of Doosan Vina, Yeon In Jung, said it’s a historic achievement for Viet Nam and Doosan Vina because these are the largest among the 68 cranes that have been produced in Viet Nam and are also some of the largest cranes made anywhere in the world.
Since commencing operations here in 2009, Doosan Vina has been a reliable supplier of power plant boilers for projects such as Mong Duong 2, Vinh Tan 4, Song Hau 1, Vinh Tan 4 Extension and has played an important role in localising the mechanical industry in Viet Nam. — VNS
