Recently, Lanjing 7500, the largest crane vessel in China completed the transfer of nationality and officially “settled” in Tianjin, which is of great significance to enhance the operational capacity of large marine engineering vessels in Tianjin.
“Lanjing 7500” is a large self-propelled crane vessel with a maximum lifting weight of 7,500 tons. With an overall length of 239.2 meters, a beam of 50 meters, a depth of 20.4 meters, and an operational draft of 9.6 meters, the ship has the ability of self-propelled and mooring positioning, and is mainly used for lifting and loading of marine structures.
The vessel has been engaged in 166 projects, completing the lifting of 450 large marine engineering structures with a total weight of over 2 million tons, equivalent to the weight of 50 “Bird’s Nest Stadium”.
Previously, the vessel was registered in Hong Kong, China, and the Tianjin Maritime Safety Administration completed the procedures for the transfer of the vessel. Up to now, there are 13 various types of engineering vessels of China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) registered in Tianjin.
