New floating crane for Congo

摘要

E-Crane in Belgium has consigned a floating transhipment station - a 1000 m~2 pontoon fitted with a series 1500B balance crane designed and built by Indusign/E-Crane Worldwide, for mid-stream operations in the Port of Matadi in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The equipment will be used to discharge grain for US-based Seaboard Corp's Minoterie de Matadi (Midema) flour mill in Matadi where, as in many ports in Africa, there are major congestion problems and a shortage of dockside equipment.
