CARGOTEC CORPORATION, PRESS RELEASE, 8 OCTOBER 2015 AT 9.30 AM (EEST)
MacGregor, part of Cargotec, has signed contracts with Chinese shipyard

for five 48m anchor handling tug supply (AHTS) vessels, each with a 75-tonne
bollard pull and one 40m AHTS vessel with a 70-tonne bollard pull. The vessels
are under construction for an undisclosed Middle East owner. The order was
booked into third quarter 2015 order intake.
MacGregor will supply a medium-pressure 150-tonne capacity anchor
handling/towing winch, a tugger winch, capstan and hydraulic power unit for each
of the 48m AHTS vessels, and a 100-tonne capacity anchor handling/towing winch,
a tugger winch, capstan and hydraulic power unit for the 40m AHTS vessel.
"The yard already has experience of MacGregor's high quality products, excellent
project management, aftersales services and support, making it the obvious
choice for these projects," says Terry Onn, Shiptype Group Sales Manager,
MacGregor Offshore Deck Machinery.
Delivery of the first vessel is planned for December 2015; subsequent deliveries
are planned at intervals up to the third quarter of 2016. All will be employed
