The Third International Safety Day<br />

Shell organized the third International Safety Day in June 2008. All contractors working<br />

on the Shell Pearl GTL project in Qatar, including <strong>Mammoet</strong>, were requested to organize<br />

a special program focusing on the theme Incident and Injury Free. <strong>Mammoet</strong> was the<br />

only contractor on site who had worked incident and injury free since the start of the<br />

project. Hence, <strong>Mammoet</strong> was presented with a safety award, an achievement to be<br />

proud of and an achievement reached by great team play.<br />

“ The only contractor on site who had worked<br />

incident and injury free since the start of the project.”<br />

<strong>Mammoet</strong> Heavy Lift Terminal:<br />

Multifunctional<br />

After a year of reconstruction, the complete Waterway Quay of the<br />

<strong>Mammoet</strong> Heavy Lift Terminal (Schiedam, the Netherlands) is<br />

finally operational. From now on, <strong>Mammoet</strong> can serve even more<br />

ships and clients as they now have 440 meters length of rail.<br />

This gives the PHB Railcrane (250 tons) a total workable<br />

area of approximately 20,000 square meters alongside the quay<br />

and that fact strengthens the position of the Heavy Lift Terminal in<br />

the Port of Rotterdam. The Heavy Lift Terminal also offers other<br />

services, such as assisting with the assembly of harbor cranes,<br />

converting special vessels, and carrying out lifting and transport<br />

activities for the assembly of platforms. Besides all the activities<br />

mentioned above, the Heavy Lift Terminal has its own Ro-Ro quay<br />

for loading and unloading extremely heavy loads.<br />

All-terrain mobile crane: LTM 11200-9.1<br />

As market leader <strong>Mammoet</strong> sets trends and records around the world. <strong>Mammoet</strong> is proud<br />

to present the first LTM 11200-9.1 on the market. The LTM 11200-9.1 is the strongest<br />

telescopic crane and is fitted with a telescopic boom of 100 meters consisting of eight<br />

parts which can be extended fully automatically. In addition, various configurations are<br />

possible by fitting extra boom sections above the hydraulic boom, allowing a<br />

maximum height of 182 meters. The lifting capacity at longer boom lengths can be<br />

increased enormously by using the Y-shaped superlift assembly. A major advantage of<br />

the telescopic boom is that it requires much less rigging space than a conventional boom<br />

formed from separate sections. The crane is also fitted with a sophisticated electronic<br />

steering system available so that it can maneuver in even the tightest spaces. This<br />

all-terrain mobile crane had just been delivered when it went straight to Amsterdam (the<br />

Netherlands) for its first impressive job, fitting a tall extension to a transmission tower.<br />

less rigging space”
