Mammoet Deploys 3 High-Capacity Cranes in India for First Time

Mammoet, global leader in heavy lifting and transport solutions, has deployed three of the world's largest heavy-lift ring cranes in India’s energy industry for the first time. The three monumental cranes making their mark in India are the PTC210-DS, a staggering 5,000t capacity ring crane, currently stationed in Gujarat for installation of multiple heavy refinery components. Accompanying it are the PTC35-DS, a 1,600t capacity ring crane, and the PT50, a 2,000t capacity ring crane, both diligently working in Rajasthan on various heavy refinery installations.
These cranes can undertake more site-wide lifting activities from a single location, eliminating productivity losses due to relocation downtime and reducing the civil works needed on site. Each crane has a high operating speed, making it an optimal choice for time-sensitive projects requiring multiple lifts.

Rahul Rathod, Project Sales Director, Mammoet India, said, “Mammoet's remarkable achievements in India not only showcase its technical prowess but also solidify its position as a trusted partner for the country's energy industry. As the demand for innovative heavy lifting solutions continues to grow, Mammoet remains dedicated to serving India and delivering exceptional results that contribute to the country's progress.”
One of the key factors setting Mammoet apart is its engineering expertise. The company's dedicated engineering teams collaborate from the initial project phase, offering tailored solutions that enhance construction efficiency and minimize downtime. With its commitment to innovation, Mammoet continues to drive progress in the industry, ensuring projects in India and beyond are completed swiftly and seamlessly.
Looking ahead, Mammoet is ready to further elevate India's energy infrastructure with its upcoming projects. The company plans to introduce two additional powerhouse cranes: the SK190, a 4,300t class crane, and the SK6000, a remarkable 6,000t crane—the next evolution in the SK series of super heavy-lift cranes. The SK6000 enables modular construction on a larger scale than ever before, cutting down on the number of operations, crane reconfigurations, and work at height during heavy industry projects. These mammoth machines will play a pivotal role in the installation of multiple components during shutdown activities in the coming years, further bolstering efficiency and productivity across various projects in India.
