PCS was tasked with a wealth of jobs including the designing, manufacturing as well as the installing of the crane. SWF was called upon to provide the hoisting technology, and with a load Rapacity of 500 t, and a rope drum diameter of 1.75m, the winch is one of the most powerful hoisting units built to date by the company. The rope has a diameter of 36mm and a length of 500m. The hoisting unit has been classified according to FEM IBM/M3 while the dead weight of the winch is 42 t.
