Huisman, a specialist in heavy lifting, pipelay and drilling equipment, has officially opened a new production hall in China. The new hall is the company’s largest production hall, measuring 205m in length, 54m in width and 62m in height.
The large height of the new hall and the available 2000mt internal hoisting capacity allows the facility to assemble products vertically, considerably enlarging the facility’s capacity in both the size and the number of products.
Huisman already had production facilities in the Netherlands and the Czech Republic and expanded operations to Fujian (Xiamen area) in 2007. Besides a 90m stinger, Huisman China delivered over twenty cranes, including three 800mt Heavy Lift Mast Cranes and several 300mt Pedestal Mounted Offshore Cranes. More cranes are currently under construction, including the 5,000mt Offshore Mast Crane for Acergy’s Borealis.
Huisman China is equipped with a total of seventeen production halls, a shot blasting and painting hall and a maintenance facility which also accommodates a welding school. Huisman is accessible for seagoing vessels and has access to heavy lift capacity enabling them to install equipment onboard.
ISO 9001:2008 Certified
In June 2009, Huisman China received the new ISO 9001:2008 certificate without any major or minor NCR’s.
