Orion crane fix to be completed in 2021

UPDATE 3: DEME probes Orion 1 accident

Repair work on the damaged Liebherr HLC 295000 crane on the Orion vessel will be completed by Liebherr-MCCtec Rostock next year.

The crane collapsed after a hook failure during testing of the unit at the German port of Rostock earlier this year.

Sarens has been assigned to salvage the damaged components of the HLC 295000.

In coordination with the port authority, the port operator and Liebherr, the salvage work will be refined and put into practice in the coming weeks, Liebherr said.

The salvage will be split into three phases.

The crane cannot be salvaged directly on site and so the first stage involves appropriate safeguarding of the scene of the accident in order to safely shift the vessel to Berth 25 at Rostock, Liebherr said.

In phase two, the insecure components shall be recovered to ensure controlled and safe dismantling of the crane during phase three.

Liebherr said both the 145-metre long boom and parts of the A-frame will be completely newly manufactured.

The necessary steel construction work will begin in September at the Liebherr plant in Rostock.

Liebherr-MCCtec Rostock managing director Leopold Berthold said: “At times like these, partnerships show how well they function.

“Although the events around 2 May 2020 have affected us, we are convinced of the high quality of our products.

“Thus, we will rebuild the HLC 295000 and successfully complete this project together with our partners.”
